Manaslu Trek with Annapurna Circuit begins in the less-traveled western Nepal. The region's pristine wilderness offers a raw and authentic trekking experience on unspoiled trails. This journey blends Manaslu's remote tranquility with Annapurna's vibrant energy.

The remarkable 21 to 3014-day hike is a daring experience of the Himalayas as it is an opportunity to conquer high-altitude passes, including Larkya La Pass (5,160m) and Thorong La Pass (5,416 m). During the thrilling hike to these passes, you will hike through subtropical valleys, appreciating the beauty of the majestic mountain peaks. Apart from the natural allure, what sets this trek apart is its cultural duality, which is renowned as one of the Nepal Cultural Trekking. The Manaslu Annapurna Circuit trek features cultural immersion in Tibetan Buddhist villages and Hindu Pilgrimage sites in Muktinath and Kagbeni. Beginning this journey is not just an adventure but a transformative experience into Nepal's extraordinary destinations.

The Manaslu with Annapurna Circuit trek is a demanding, high-altitude expedition suited for physicallyphysically fit trekkers with experience. We recommend this journey for travelers who want to test their limits and experience authentic Himalayan culture and rugged landscape. This trek is unsuitable for participants who are not physically fit and have no prior experience.

Best Suited For

  • Travelers with high-altitude trekking experience.
  • Trekkers who are comfortable hiking for 6 to 8 hours daily.
  • Individuals familiar with high-altitude environments and altitude sickness.
  • Participants eager to engage and immerse themselves in local culture and traditions.
  • Risk of Altitude sickness and It's remedies.

The trek pushes travelers into a challenging high-altitude environment, where Acute Motion Sickness (AMS) is a significant concern. It's been reported by the Nepal Ministry of Health in 2022 that 30% of the trekkers experience mild symptoms of the illness in this route. The decreased oxygen level in the higher elevation of the region triggers symptoms like headache, dizziness, nausea, fatigue, and shortness of breath. In severe cases, the AMS progresses to High Altitude Pulmonary Edema (HAPE) or High Altitude Cerebral Edema (HACE) if not properly managed.

Preventive Remedies of Altitude Sickness

  • Allow your body to adjust and limit the daily elevation gain to around 300–500 m.
  • Use medications like Diamox under the supervision of a healthcare professional.
  • Stay hydrated and drink at least 3 to 4 liters of water daily.
  • Consume carbohydrate-rich foods to fuel your body for the long days of hiking.
  • Drink natural remedies like lemon tea, garlic soup, and ginger tea.
  • Do not rush during the trek,; get at least 8 hours of sleep.
  • Use an oximeter to monitor your oxygen levels.

How difficult is the Manaslu and Annapurna Circuit Trek?

The Manaslu with Annapurna Circuit Trek is more challenging than the classic Manaslu Circuit and Annapurna Circuit. The combined trail features challenging terrain in the region's rugged and remote landscapes. The Manaslu Annapurna Circuit is widely recognized as one of the most demanding expeditions in Nepal. Here is a brief candid overview of the assessment of the trek's difficulty.

  • High-Altitude Passes: Trekkers must hike to high-altitude regions with routes passing over critical points like Larkya La Pass (5,106 m) in the Manaslu section and Thorong La Pass (5,416 m) in the Annapurna region.
  • Trail Conditions: You will encounter remote, rocky, and rugged terrain with steep ascents and descents. Navigating them will require physical and mental resilience.
  • Physically Demanding: The trek lasts 20 to 30 days, depending on the itinerary. Trekkers walk an average of 6 to 8 hours daily.

  • Strength Training: Work out with weights to simulate steep ascents and descents. Indulge in exercises such as lunges, squats, calf raises, and step-ups.
  • Flexibility and Balance: Incorporate dynamic stretching and yoga into your daily routine. This will help improve your mobility and prevent muscle strains.
  • Altitude-Specific Conditioning: Expose yourself to the trek condition, and participate in short hikes to experience the challenges. Focus on maintaining hydration, rest, and recovery.
  • Nutrition for High Altitude: In addition to physical training, design a balanced diet with high protein, carbohydrates, and minerals. This will help replenish your body after the daily workout sessions.
