Annapurna Circuit Trek is the classical trekking route of Nepal. Normally, the trip is the detour route of Nepal Trekking, which requires 10–17 days. However, if you are short on time, you can do the trek in much fewer days as well. After lots of field research, travel planners at Nepal High Trek have knitted the Annapurna Circuit Trek 10-day itinerary. The itinerary is perfect for travelers without much risk of altitude sickness or hours of walking. Moreover, the construction of a hilly road from Besisahar to Manang has helped in knitting the short itinerary of the Annapurna Circuit Trek.
Can I use a Jeep to Manang to further shorten the number of trekking days?
No, it is not appropriate to take a Jeep beyond Chame. However, it is possible to use the four-wheel jeep to reach Manang. The risk of altitude sickness is very high if we take a jeep ride to Manang.

Annapurna with Nepal High Trek!
We had the BEST time on the Annapurna Circuit with our guide Kipa from Nepal High Trek. Kipa was so knowledgeable, helpful, and kind, and he made our trek unforgettable in the most amazing way.
Nepal High Trek helped adjust our trip when the Manaslu Circuit was inaccessible, and every staff member and guide we interacted with were wonderful. If we have the opportunity to come back to Nepal for another trek, we would book with Nepal High Trek and Kipa again! Thank you for everything!!!

Annapurna Circuit Trek
Originally we booked the Manaslu circuit but due to a bridge being taken out we were unable to continue. Anjan, Suman, and the team at Nepal high trek had us on a jeep to the Annapurna circuit the next day. The professionalism and ease of travel that they provided were top tier. Throughout our entire journey Suman was incredibly helpful, profesional, and an absolute joy to be guided by. The value for money and overall experience was perfect. Don’t look anywhere else, book with Nepal High Trek and I guarantee your journey will be amazing!!

8-Day Annapurna Circuit with Nabin
My partner and I recently completed a 8-day trek along the Annapurna Circuit from Upper Pisang to Marpha, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
A massive part of what made this trip so special was our wonderful Nepalese guide, Nabin Kumar Waiba. Nabin’s bubbly personality created a great group dynamic on the trail and on the road, he provided cultural insights, warm hospitality, and endless entertainment.
Beyond being great company, Nabin took the health and safety of our group seriously. He was always quick to point out risky sections of the trail and was extremely attentive and caring whenever acclimatization issues popped up. We couldn't recommend him more highly!
The logistics were completely seamless from start to finish. All transport between towns, as well as our airport pickups and drop-offs, were organized to perfection. Every guest house we stayed at along the trek had everything we needed—quality food, showers, comfortable cabins, Wi-Fi and communal areas to relax.
If you're planning a trek in Nepal, ask for Nabin, you'll be in the best possible hands!

Perfect from start to end
If you are like me 6 months ago you are probably trawling through the endless number of guide companies offering treks in Nepal. Stop. Just go with Nepal High Trek. I literally can’t fault my experience with them.
1. When the devastating floods hit Nepal, Anjan communicated openly and frequently about the safety of our trip. He was flexible the entire time with our specific plans too (like needing an extra night at the end).
2. Our guide Suman picked us up late at night from the airport and organised all of the logistics making it very relaxed for us
3. After a landslide took out a bridge on the Manaslu Circuit, Suman quickly had us in a car on the way to the Annapurna Circuit instead. The company even covered the additional costs, they easily could have asked us to pay
4. If you get Suman as your guide you could not be luckier. He was professional but also good fun the entire time. However, we also saw other Nepal High Trek groups on the trail and meeting their guides showed that I think you’re gonna have a great time with any of them. They were all super experienced and good fun to chat to.
Stop looking. You’ve found what you’re looking for. A company that is going to make your Nepal trip exactly how you want it to be. I actually can’t recommend them enough.

Spectacular trekking experience with Nabin from Nepal high trek
We shared our Annapurna circuit journey with Nabin from Nepal high trek who was very funny, energetic, experienced, caring and fun to explore with. We felt supported throughout the whole journey- and felt that our timetable was amenable for our personal preferences / interests. My prtner and i found that we had a very bespoke trekking experience catered to our fitness level and appetite for adventure. Everything was very well organised. Highly recommend Nabin for those thinking about an adventure

The experience of a lifetime
My sister and I flew to Nepal in September to do the Annapurna Circuit Trek. We were greeted right at the airport with flower garlands by the High Trek Team. Once we arrived at the hotel in Kathmandu, we were introduced to our guide, Nima. Nima was the best thing that could have happened to us. We always felt safe with him, and his warm and humorous personality made the trek an unforgettable experience. When I started experiencing mild symptoms of altitude sickness at 5,200 meters, he was immediately there for me, took my backpack, and got me some medicine. Nima not only introduced us to the mountains but also to the culture, the temples, and the customs. We’ll definitely be back and would love to explore the Himalayas with Nima again.

Highly recommend!!
My sister and I had an amazing time trekking with Nepal High Trek. Everything was organized very well (pickup from airport, transportation and overnight stays). We also adored our guide Nima. He kept us entertained, made sure we were drinking enough water and paced us up the mountains. We could not have asked for a nicer guide.

Excellent experience trekking the Annapurna Circuit
We had an amazing experience trekking the Annapurna Circuit with our guides Buddhi and Densar and fantastic team of porters. The whole Nepal High Trek team were so friendly and helpful and went out of their way at every opportunity to make our trip as comfortable, fun and safe as possible. It was an unforgettable experience and I’d highly recommend Nepal High Trek!
