Time to chill out in Pokhara and hire any gear that may be needed for the next step of our adventure. Gaze across the picturesque lake and contemplate the snow-capped peaks of our upcoming challenge, the Annapurna Ranges.

On the Annapurna Sanctuary trek we'll traverse a wide variety of terrain from lowland pastures and peaceful villages to dramatic glaciers and stunning mountain pathways. While the trekking is challenging, averaging six to seven hours a day on steep terrain, our expedition into the mountains allows you to experience the 'Roof of the World'. Along the way see thundering waterfalls, cross icy rivers and high mountain passes and reward ourselves with a soak in natural hot springs. Overnight we stay in small, rustic teahouses allowing us to meet Nepali hill people.
