Annapurna Circuit Trek Highlights
We joined the Annapurna Circuit at Thonche after completing the Mount Manaslu Circuit Trek. Traditionally the Annapurna Circuit trek commences at Bhulbhule, which is about two days walk away. Whilst the Manaslu trek offered remote seclusion, the Annapurna trek provided the most amazing mountain views and warm showers. I look forward to sharing the adventure with you.

My first visit to Nepal was in 2008. It wasn’t the typical introductory trek that you might expect. Firstly, my husband Dennis and I didn’t go to Everest Base Camp, and secondly, we didn’t complete one trek, we combined three circuit treks in Western Nepal—Manaslu, Annupurna and Dhaulagiri. In this post I share the highlights from the Mount Manaslu Circuit Trek, which at the time was relatively unknown compared to the Annapurna and Khumbu regions.
