Trip Informations
Why you’ll love this trip
verified
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.
verified
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!
verified
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.
verified
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.
verified
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.
Is this trip right for you?
verified
While this is a relatively low-altitude trek (the maximum sleeping altitude is 1981 m), you’ll need a high level of fitness as you'll be walking between 5 and 7 hours a day on some days. You’ll ascend and descend uneven stone steps for much of the trek, so it’s recommended you use hiking poles (which are provided).
verified
For the trek, you’ll be provided with a duffel bag that a porter will carry – your porter can carry up to 8 kg per traveller. Any other luggage can be left in Pokhara and collected at the end of the trek.
verified
Some trails require unexpected maintenance throughout the year and may require closure. If that’s the case, we’ll take an alternative trail with similar features, distances and elevation where possible.

To get to the hiking trails in this region, you’ll spend quite a bit of time on the road – but all in the comfort of a private vehicle.

Itinerary
Soak up the magic of Nepal and the Annapurna mountains on a short-but-sweet trek
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.
