Annapurna Travel Guide for 2026
The Annapurna region, one of Nepal’s most iconic trekking destinations, continues to mesmerize adventurers with its stunning landscapes, diverse cultural experiences, and breathtaking mountain vistas. Home to Annapurna I (8,091 m / 26,545 ft), the 10th highest peak in the world, this region offers a variety of trekking routes, from the world-famous Annapurna Circuit to the scenic Annapurna Base Camp (ABC) trek. Whether you're looking for a multi-week trekking adventure or a shorter, immersive experience, this guide will help you prepare for an unforgettable journey in 2025.
The Annapurna region is accessible via a drive or short flight to Pokhara, Nepal’s second-largest city and a gateway to the western Nepali Himalayas. Most Annapurna region treks commence from Pokhara as the treks progress through lush rhododendron forests, traditional Gurung and Thakali villages, and high mountain passes, offering spectacular views of Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, Machapuchare, and other towering peaks. The best time to visit is during the pre-monsoon (March to May) and post-monsoon (September to November) seasons.. Along the trek trails, you can soak in natural hot springs, cross thrilling suspension bridges, and witness the spiritual ambiance of ancient monasteries and Hindu temples.
