MTA Trekking

Overview

Take on one of the most complete and rewarding trekking routes in Nepal on this 11-day journey through the Annapurna region, crossing the legendary Thorong La Pass at 5,416m, soaking in the natural hot springs of Tatopani, and finishing with a golden sunrise over the Himalayas from Poon Hill. Starting from the lush lowlands near Besisahar, the trail climbs steadily through pine forests, traditional Bhote and Gurung villages, and high alpine valleys, with the towering peaks of Annapurna, Tilicho, and Lamjung Himal as your constant companions. After days of gradual acclimatization through Chame, Pisang, and Manang, you'll cross the pass itself in the early morning hours before descending to the sacred valley town of Muktinath. From here, the journey continues to Tatopani, where a soak in the natural hot springs offers welcome relief for tired legs, before a final climb to Ghorepani and an early-morning hike to Poon Hill, one of the most celebrated sunrise viewpoints in the Himalayas, ahead of the drive back to Pokhara. Starting with a scenic drive from Kathmandu, you'll rapidly ascend through lush river valleys, traditional Gurung villages, and alpine forests, eventually reaching the arid, high-altitude terrain of the Manang Valley. Acclimatization is key, and we ensure adequate stops, though the overall pace is quicker than traditional routes. The climax of your adventure will be conquering the formidable Thorong La Pass (5,416m), a truly unforgettable achievement, before descending into the sacred valley of Muktinath and concluding your journey with a scenic flight to Pokhara.
