Overview

  • This private 3-day trek offers a more personal and flexible way to experience the Annapurna foothills away from large group tours. Travel comfortably from Pokhara with private transport, then trek through peaceful mountain villages, terraced hillsides, forests, and scenic Himalayan landscapes.

    With a professional English-speaking trekking guide accompanying you throughout the journey, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of local culture, village life, and the mountain environment while enjoying a pace suited to your private group. Overnight stays in local trekking lodges provide an authentic Himalayan experience, while the private return transfer from Phedi to Pokhara adds comfort and convenience.

    The combination of private service, authentic village trails, experienced local support, and spectacular mountain scenery makes this a memorable introduction to trekking in the Annapurna region.
