It is a moderate. difficulty expedition. While the daily hines are not technically hard, the challenge lies is spending 2 weeks at altitude and reaching 5000 meters with can make some days more demanding.

You will walk 7 to 15 kilometers per day on easy terrain.

Annapurna Circuit is an expedition that does not require previous mountain experience.

Anyone in good phyisical condition can do the trek, as the terrain is not technical, and with proper acclimatization, is not difficult.

However, we recommend doing some good cardiovascular training for at least three months beforehand to enjoy the trip more and with less effort.

We recommend focusing on stair climbing or walking on a treadmill at slow pace with maximum incline (around 2.5 km/h).

Complement this with core and strength training to build overall endurance.

During the three months prior to the trip, try to train about fives times per week. Once a week include a longer hike of around 6 hours to simulase the trekking days.

The better prepared you are, the more you will enjoy the journey.

The best months to trek are March to May and October to November, when the weather conditions are generally the most stable and pleasant.

If your flight itinerary includes a layover in the United States, you’ll also need to arrange a U.S. transit visa before traveling.

In Kathmandu, we include 4 nights in a 5-star hotel (Aloft or similar). During the trek, we stay each night in mountain lodges. These are charming and cozy but rustic, offering a true Himalayan experience.

Some lodges have private rooms with en-suite bathrooms, while others have shared bathrooms located outside the rooms.

Rooms are shared with another participant from the group.

We carefully select all members of our guiding team.

Groups of fewer than 10 people are guided by our experienced local staff, while larger expeditions (10 or more participants) are also accompanied by a Spanish-speaking team leader, such as Vanessa Estol or another member of our international team who travels from Latin America.

From the start of the trek, you’ll enjoy three abundant meals per day, all included.

For each meal, you can choose one item from an extensive menu — portions are generous and satisfying. If you’d like to order additional dishes, that’s possible at an extra cost.

Lunch is usually served at one of the local tea houses along the route. The meals are prepared with fresh, organic ingredients from nearby villages, rich in carbohydrates to keep your energy levels high during the trek.

You’ll also have 2 liters of drinking water provided per day.

The key is to walk slowly, stay well hydrated (at least 3 liters of water per day), eat properly, and get enough rest to allow your body to acclimatize.

It’s also very important to follow your guides’ recommendations and avoid rushing or pushing the pace — slow and steady is the best approach at altitude.

If you need to cancel, you may transfer your spot to another person who meets the necessary physical requirements to participate in the expedition.

• USD 200 for extras during the trek (coffee, drinks, desserts, internet, etc.)
• Extra for souvenirs and gifts
