The Best Season for Manaslu Annapurna Circuit Trek
The best season to trek the Manaslu Annapurna Circuit is during the pre-monsoon (spring: March to May) and post-monsoon (autumn: September to November) months. These periods offer the most favorable weather, stable conditions, and clear mountain views.
Spring (March–May) brings warmer temperatures, blooming rhododendrons, and lush greenery. Trails are vibrant with wildflowers, and the skies are generally clear, offering excellent views of Manaslu, Annapurna, and other Himalayan peaks. The snow at higher altitudes starts melting, making high passes like Larke La (5,106 m) and Thorong La (5,416 m) more accessible.
Autumn (September–November) is considered the prime trekking season due to dry weather, clear skies, and crisp mountain views. The monsoon rains rejuvenate the landscape, leaving it green and dust-free. Daytime temperatures are comfortable, though nights can be cold at higher elevations.
Avoid the monsoon season (June to August) due to heavy rain, landslides, and leeches. Winter (December to February) brings snow, making high passes risky or impassable.
Overall, spring and autumn offer the best combination of scenic beauty, safety, and trekking conditions for the Manaslu Annapurna Circuit Trek.
