On this trek, you go from the hustle and bustle of Kathmandu, a cosmopolitan city very much in the 21st century, but still with pockets dating back to ancient times, into the supreme majesty of Nepal’s high Himalayas.

The pathways you will tread will not only take you to the foot of the world’s highest mountain but up and over three 5,000m+ passes – Kongma La Pass (5,535m), Cho La Pass (5420m) and Renjo La Pass (5,340m) and also to Gokyo and its surrounding lakes.

It is a stunningly beautiful trek, taking you up through ancient rhododendron forests, to what feels like the face of the mountains themselves, as you get up close and personal with Annapurna South, Hiunchuli, Machhapuchhre, Gangapurna, Annapurna I and Mardi Himal.

This is a trek for those with a real sense of adventure, who are happy to embrace basic living conditions in order to experience rural, mountain people’s life in Nepal.

Starting in the lush semi-tropical foothills, you will climb across the main Himalayan range up to the rain shadow high plateau in the Buddhist north and back down through ancient villages and the world’s deepest gorge, the Kali Gandaki Gorge.

Although located in the popular Annapurna range, this trek will take you up high away from the crowds towards the Tibetan border before dropping down to join a small section of the classic Annapurna Circuit.

Trekking through remote villages steeped in Tibetan heritage and still following their ancient traditions of yak herding, harvesting wild herbs for medicinal purposes, and trading across the Tibetan border it will be like stepping back in time.

Just as diverse as the ethnic population, so too the scenery varies from the lush, low elevation valleys growing rice and bananas, inhabited predominantly by the Hindu ethnic groups of Indo-Aryan origin, through rhododendron and bamboo forests, where you begin to encounter communities of Tibeto-Burmese origin who practice Hinduism, Buddhism or a mixture of both.
