Premium Hiking and Trekking in Nepal's Annapurna region

< View Other Tours

Tour Overview

Who says trekking means roughing it? On this eight-day Premium hiking adventure, you’ll experience the beauty and culture of the Himalayan foothills and the Annapurna mountain range – without skimping on comfort. Start in bustling Kathmandu – perhaps exploring the city’s ancient temples and markets – before heading to chilled-out Pokhara. Then it’s time to gear up for your trek! Hiking at relatively low altitude in the Annapurna foothills from Ghatte Khola to Syauli Bazaar, you’ll pass through classic Nepali trekking landscapes of terraced rice paddies, rhododendron forests, traditional villages, fluttering prayer flags, and gigantic peaks you’ll never get tired of looking at. At the end of each day, unwind in cosy trekking lodges with ensuite bathrooms, hot showers, hearty meals and views like no other.

Trip Highlights

Why you'll love this trip

  • Explore a section of the iconic Annapurna Range on a trek long enough to take you deep into the Himalayan foothills, but short enough not to be too exhausting.

  • Stay in some of Nepal’s comfiest trekking lodges. Enjoy sundowners on mountain-view terraces, ensuite bathrooms and even a hot water bottle in bed – the dream after a day on the trail!

  • Hike through quintessential Himalayan landscapes – cross suspension bridges strung with prayer flags, pass rivers and rhododendron forests, and say namaste (hello) to villagers along the way.

  • Unwind in Pokhara after the trek with a boat ride on the serene Fewa Lake and a visit to the white-domed Peace Pagoda on Anadu Hill.

  • Gain an insight into the rural way of life in the mountains and learn about the ethnic culture and customs of the Gurung people at the Gurung Museum.
