Annapurna Sanctuary Trek

This trip was incredible, definitely not one to miss. The landscape and views are like no other and the people are so friendly. Bimal, Prem and Bhim looked after us so well.
Some notes
- Bring or plan to change currency into Nepalese Rupees, the trip notes advised USD but rupees was preferred everywhere.
- No need for extra snacks. The food and variety of options (even at the top) were great and more than enough, including afternoon tea and biscuits!
- Make sure you pack for the cold. The teahouses have no form of heating, even in the common areas so at the higher camps it can be hard to stay warm after walking.
- Highly recommend a trip to the hot springs, very much welcome after long days walking. Make sure you pack your swimming costume in your trek bag and not in your main luggage
- Bring something to read or an activity for the afternoons. Ascending is gradual due to acclimatisation meaning there are quite a few afternoons without much to do, our group enjoyed lots of Uno!
- Trekking poles were a big help
- The drive to Pokhara is long, though unavoidable as flying in Nepal is a European blacklist. Bring travel sickness tablets if you're susceptible.
