Deciding the ideal time to trek the Annapurna Circuit is certainly an elimination game. You can ignore December through February – exceedingly cold. Eliminate May from the list as it tends to be too hot. And you surely don’t wish to trek during the summer – because it remains too wet. From June to September is the monsoon season, when as much as seventy percent of the annual precipitation takes place. This is also the time when rock fall& landslides are most expected to take place.

That leaves 2 times when Annapurna Circuit trekking is best: from October to November & mid-March to mid-April.

How long is the Annapurna circuit trek?

Annapurna located in the North central of Nepal is the 10th highest mountain in the globe, it is massif – the tallest point of the 34 mile long range reaches an elevation of 24,545ft, about 3000ft below Mount Everest.

Since the Annapurna massif is measured as the most risky to trek of all the 8,000m summits, a lot of travelers are just happy to stroll around it. Every year approximately 115,000 people tour the province & a lot of them do accomplish the 100 to145 mile long Annapurna trek. (the hike distance differs, relying on how far you at first go through truck or van.)

Weather advice for Annapurna circuit trekking:

Though tourists hike the province throughout the year, we suggest ignoring the heavy rain of the monsoon month that make the route muddy and slick and make rivers to rise. In monsoon season, flight maybe canceled, sights are often concealed by dense clouds, and leeches appear in full force.

Annapurna Circuit trekking in the fall & early spring does not assure clear blue sky & comfortable temperature. Even during the best time, the climate in Annapurna province may alter as you arrive at higher altitudes.

Keep in mind that these are the majestic Himalayas! On absolutely clear sky day, an unexpected storm can appear from the Bay of Bengal & drop up to more than 36 hours of snow on the trail. These dense snows at higher altitude can cause serious risk to those not familiar with the trail, lacking the appropriate gear or hiking without an experienced local trek guide who understand the trail & the weather patterns as well.

Be it Annapurna circuit trek, Annapurna Base Camp trek or the Everest Base Camp trek, Nepal is always going to be a fascinating destination for the trekkers.
