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.

This card is of utmost importance during emergency situations and aids in rescue operations. To obtain the TIMS card, you must provide your passport and passport-size photos.

To acquire this permit, it is necessary to be part of a group consisting of at least two trekkers and possess a valid passport and visa. The cost of the permit varies depending on the time of the year. For treks taking place between September and November, the permit fee is USD100 per person, whereas for the other months, it amounts to USD75 per person for a duration of 7 days.

As part of our package, we provide local bus transportation for this journey. The local bus departs at approximately 6:30 am in the morning, so it is advisable to be ready early. This mode of transportation allows you to immerse yourself in the local lifestyle and travel alongside the local people. However, it is important to note that the local bus ride may not be very comfortable due to the seating arrangements, frequent stops for pick-ups and drop-offs, and occasional congestion. If you prefer a more comfortable option, private transport is available at an additional cost. A single Jeep can accommodate up to 6 people, and the total cost for this option is USD 200.

They will also provide valuable insights into Nepali culture, lifestyle, and the diverse flora and fauna you encounter along the way.

Trekking Porter:

The 23-Day Manaslu Annapurna Circuit Trek Package does not include porter support by default, giving you the freedom to trek independently or hire a porter. However, we strongly recommend hiring a porter for this demanding journey, as the trail passes through rugged, rocky, and high-altitude terrain. If you choose to hire one, a porter can be shared between two trekkers and can carry up to 18 kg total. The cost is $25 per day, covering all expenses including their salary, food, transportation, insurance, gear, and accommodation. Sharing a porter is also a great option for groups to reduce individual costs.

We offer a variety of food options, including vegetarian, vegan, and non-vegetarian dishes. However, we do not recommend purchasing meat items. Our menu includes authentic Nepali, Tibetan, continental, and Indian cuisines, allowing you to choose your preferred meals. If you have any suggestions or special requests, please do not hesitate to contact us. We sincerely hope that you will enjoy our food offerings.

Packing List:

A well-thought-out packing list is essential for trekking in Nepal. Here are some key items that will help you prepare effectively.

Essential Gear: Prepare a backpack or daypack (40L) depending on whether you will be using a porter. Remember to bring a 2-3-liter water bottle, trekking poles, a water purification method, and a sleeping bag with a liner (consider a -20-degree capacity for winter treks).
Headwear: To protect yourself from the sun, you can choose between a sun hat or a scarf. In colder climates, it is recommended to wear a winter hat or a wind-brimmed hat that is designed to shield you from the winter elements. Additionally, it's always wise to carry a headlight with spare batteries to ensure you have adequate lighting in any situation.
Face Protectors: When it comes to safeguarding your skin, don't forget to include sunscreen, sunglasses with UV protection, and face and body wipes in your daily routine. These items play a vital role in shielding your skin from harmful UV rays and keeping it clean and refreshed.
Handwear: Lightweight gloves offer comfort and flexibility, whereas heavyweight winter gloves provide superior insulation for extreme cold conditions.
Body Requirements: For a successful hiking experience, it is important to have the appropriate clothing. This includes hiking shirts made of synthetic fiber, long-sleeved shirts, a hooded rain jacket, a fleece jacket, lightweight cotton pants, polypropylene underwear, a down jacket for winter treks, and waterproof jackets and pants.
Footwear: The footwear options include waterproof hiking boots, thick wool socks, and sports shoes or sandals for relaxation during trek-off time.
Toiletries: When going hiking, make sure to pack a fast-drying towel, toothbrush, toothpaste, toilet paper, soap, shower gel, washing powder, nail clippers, and a compact mirror.
Rain Protection: When preparing for rain, it is important to remember to bring windproof gear in addition to rain protection. This includes rain jackets or ponchos and bag covers, as well as crampons for the icy and slippery trail.

Travel insurance:

For Nepal trekking, travel insurance is a must-have for unforeseen circumstances. Although staff insurance is included, clients need to have their own travel insurance for medical emergencies and rescue operations. Please ensure you have the necessary travel insurance before starting the trek.

Mountain Amenities:

Detailed information is available regarding the amenities provided during the trekking experience, including the costs associated with each. These amenities may include hot showers, wifi access, electricity, drinking water, and more for the perfect arrangement.

Drinking Water: Prioritizing drinking water is of utmost importance when preparing for your trek. While there are various options available, such as finger, treated spring water, or bottled water, it is essential to note that drinking water is not included in this package. Therefore, it is your responsibility to manage your own water supply based on your preferences. We strongly advise consuming 3/4 liters of water daily. Spring water can be used, but it must be treated with medication or filtered, which is the most cost-effective option. If you decide to purchase bottled water, please be aware that it can cost between 100 and 450 rupees per liter due to accessibility.
Hot Shower: Indulge in the comfort of a hot shower during your mountain stay, available at an extra cost. The shower facilities are equipped with both gas and solar heating systems, guaranteeing a refreshing and warm bathing experience. The tea house offers this service at a rate of Rs 200 to Rs 400 per person per shower. Kindly ensure you have some Nepali currency to avail of this convenient service.
Wifi Service: Presently, many tea houses provide WIFI service for an extra fee ranging between Rs. 200 and Rs. 300 per device per night. The service's reliability may be affected by weather conditions, making it unreliable at times. As an alternative, you can use mobile data, which offers coverage along most of the trail, with some exceptions.
Laundry Service: For those embarking on a long journey, the laundry service is a great solution to minimize the number of belongings you need to pack. In mountainous regions, there are laundry services available for a reasonable fee, but you also have the option to wash your clothes on your own. To do so, bring along washing powder or soap and clean your day-use items. You can then hang them near a wood fire or on the tea house balcony, taking advantage of the wind to ensure quick drying throughout the night.
Charging Facility: Along the trail, there are charging options available for batteries or devices, but in high elevations, only a solar facility is accessible, making it challenging to charge your devices. However, most teahouses offer charging services at a minimal cost, and in some places, it may even be free of charge.

Best Season for Manasalu and Annapurna Circuit Trekking:

Nepal's main trekking seasons, fall and spring, offer stable weather conditions and excellent visibility. Nevertheless, the winter and rainy seasons can also offer a wonderful experience if the weather cooperates. Take into account the detailed weather information to select the perfect season for your dream journey to the Manaslu Annapurna Circuit Trek.

Autumn Season: The autumn season (September to November) offers the ideal conditions for traveling to the Himalayas in Nepal. The weather is mild and consistent, making it a great time to explore the region. This period follows the monsoon season, resulting in less dust on the trails, stunning waterfalls, lush greenery, and clear skies showcasing breathtaking mountain views. Additionally, you can observe the rice harvesting season and partake in local festivals while enjoying your trekking adventure.
Spring Season: The spring season, which spans from March to May, is the second most favored time for adventure in Nepal. During this period, the weather is typically clear, allowing for a delightful experience of blooming flowers along the trail. While temperatures are high in lower elevations, they remain pleasantly cool in higher elevations. With minimal precipitation and longer daylight hours, travelers can fully appreciate the stunning scenery and blossoms during their trek. However, it is important to note that the trail can be quite dusty, so it is advisable to bring along some protective gear like a mask.
Winter season: During the winter season in Nepal (December to February), it is considered the off-season due to the cold weather on the high pass trek. There is a possibility of trail blockages caused by heavy snowfalls and storms. We do not recommend traveling during this season due to poor visibility conditions and low temperatures. However, if you still wish to explore during this time, please feel free to contact us for assistance. If you are planning your journey during this period, it is important to prepare suitable gear according to the weather conditions.
Rainy Season: The monsoon season (June to August) is considered the low season in Nepal due to heavy rainfall, which can lead to trail blockages from flooding. It is not advisable to visit during this time due to poor visibility and unpredictable weather conditions. However, if you still wish to explore Nepal during the rainy season, feel free to reach out to us for assistance. Make sure to pack appropriate gear for the weather if you decide to travel during this period.

Flora and Fauna:

During the trekking routes of Manalsu and Annapurna Circuit, you will have the opportunity to encounter diverse climates, flora, and fauna within these two conservation areas. This remarkable journey unveils the presence of rare wildlife, avian species, and unique plant life. The Manaslu conservation area serves as a sanctuary for the elusive Snow Leopard, Musk Deer, and Red Panda. Additionally, it boasts an impressive array of 110 bird species and 3 snake species. Enveloped by over 200 species of flora, this region safeguards the Impeyan Pheasant and Crimson Horned Pheasant, both exclusive to Nepal. Notably, 55 plant species are endemic solely to this area. On the other hand, the Annapurna Conservation Area provides a habitat for approximately 101 mammal species, including endangered creatures such as the snow leopard, musk deer, Tibetan argali, and Tibetan wolf. Moreover, it proudly hosts all 6 Himalayan pheasants found in Nepal.

Request for the Trekkers:

Throughout your journey, it is important to ask for permission before taking photos of the locals. It is crucial to respect the local culture and lifestyle, and remember that harming animals and birds is strictly forbidden. When walking, be attentive for local porters and mules passing by, allowing them to go ahead and waiting on the safe side. Listen to your guide's suggestions and follow them accordingly. Take pleasure in nature, ensure you eat and drink sufficiently, and in case of any trouble, do not hesitate to share with your guide. Properly manage your garbage and maintain a suitable pace.

This special occasion will also serve as an opportunity for us to present you with an appreciation certificate and engage in a conversation about your trip, allowing us to gather your valuable suggestions and reviews. Your kind feedback holds great significance for our company.

Guidelines for Tipping Guides and Porters:

Providing tips for your guide, diver, and porter is customary in Nepal. It serves as a gesture of appreciation for their hard work and assistance throughout your journey. Typically, the minimum tip for guides and porters is 10% of the total amount you have paid. If you choose to give more, that is also acceptable. Our guides and porters consistently support and care for you, and you can show your appreciation in whatever way you feel is appropriate.
