Our 10-day journey begins from Kathmandu. We will trek alongside the gorgeous Marshyangdi River while the Annapurna range cheers you on from a distance.
Once we reach Manang, we will cross the infamous Thorung La Pass (5,416m) and descend towards Muktinath (3802m).
After visiting the holy pilgrimage of Muktinath, you will ride the bus for a few hours from Jomsom to Tatopani, the final stop before heading back to Pokhara.
This entire trek rewards you with breathtaking views of Annapurna II & III, Lamjung Kailash, Annapurna South, and other peaks like Machhapuchhre, Dhaulagiri, Tukuche Ri, and many more.
