Itinerary

Follow in the footsteps of mountaineering legends with the "21-Day Everest Base Camp Trek from Jiri."

The journey offers a gradual ascent for optimal acclimatization, passing through remote villages, diverse vegetation, and rich cultural landscapes before culminating at Everest Base Camp. With basic but adequate facilities and a route less traveled since the advent of Lukla flights, the trek’s unique selling point is its blend of historical significance, cultural immersion, and reduced risk of altitude sickness.

Annapurna Circuit Trek

5.0(34 reviews)

The Annapurna Circuit – considered the classic trek in Nepal – is legendary in the hiking community for its unrivalled variety of landscapes. However, few trekking trips complete the route, often skipping the final leg, which means missing out on deserted trails and unforgettable nights in quiet teahouses. We just couldn’t do that. Join us to tackle the full lap, enjoying superb views of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri mountains and the ever-changing scenery. Based in teahouses throughout, we spend time in villages inhabited by many of Nepal’s different peoples, both Buddhist and Hindu. Selected departures are led by Valerie Parkinson, Wanderlust World Guide Award winner (Best Tour Leader, 2021), celebrating 40 years of guiding Himalayan expeditions. See Dates & Prices.
