Nepal Annapurna Jomosom Trek


NEPAL ANNAPURNA JOMOSOM TREK
PHYSICAL GRADING – 2/5 (Slightly strenuous)
Himalayas, home to the highest mountain in the world and many other 8000ers giants divides Nepal and Tibet and stretches some 2400km. Nepal has several national parks, such the popular Sagarmatha and Annapurna Conservation Area.

Explores a portion of the Annapurna circuit, between Thorung La pass and Marpha, the apple capital of Nepal. Other than the usual UNESCO site of Bhaktapur and popular destinations such as Pokhara, you will also get to explore the nice villages of Muthiknath, Kagbeni and Marpha. Next, you will relax at the royal national park of Chitwan wildlife safari, doing elephant and boat rides through the forest and looking out for wildlife.

Our key differences from the others are, instead of trekking, you can also choose to take the jeep along this Annapurna Circuit. Next, you do not need to trek back and forth on the same trail between Muthiknath and Jomosom. The last element is that we added in Bhaktapur and Chitwan Wildlife Safari to complete the whole outdoors experience. With our special customized programs designed to bring outdoor to the average urbanites, we are confident that you will get to enjoy outdoors in this beautiful Himalayan country.
