Tips for Annapurna Circuit Trek
While the trek along the circuit is easy to travel. There are many things that the trekkers need to take into account while going through the Annapurna circuit. Here are some tips that might be helpful.
Always carry Nepalese Rupees
We highly recommended that you change your countries currency to Nepalese rupees. You will have no problem to buy and spend the money on anything necessary along the trek. Having a dollar or other currencies cannot be used effectively in local areas. We highly recommend you to change to the local currency in Kathmandu, the capital city before you head to the trek.
Fill up on snacks
You should always carry some light snacks, dried fruits, drinks (water is the best choice), and many more. It will help to maintain the stamina and energy to help you make all set for the trek roads.
Never forget your gear
Having a good set of gears while on the journey is always important. You should definitely carry trekking poles, jackets, gloves, sleeping bags, woolen hats, etc. You can always bring your own gears, but if your luggage is already heavy enough you always have an option to buy them in the capital. There are many outfitters and authentic stores in Kathmandu that will provide you with the best gears in cheap and negotiable prices.
Fill up on water
Dehydration is always a thing you should consider when traveling. It is not always possible to get fresh water everywhere. You can use purification tablets, purifiers for this. You should always carry some water bottles so that you can stay hydrated all the time. Also, always remember to fill up on mineral water bottles or water from local villages when you come across them.
Get a Map
Always carry a map of the place to know where you are at all times. Having a navigation item is always handy for use.
Respect local culture
Nepal is a very diverse country in its culture and religion. Respect any culture and traditions you come across. You can ask your guide to explain them to you whenever you come across one or, study the culture of the place where you’re heading beforehand.
Are food and water safe during circuit trek to Annapurna?
The tap water and the untreated water is considered rather safe in the Annapurna Circuit. However, it is highly recommended you buy mineral water along the way or use iodine tablets or Steripen. Steripen is considered better than tablets for purifying the water. The food is 100% safe to eat. The foods in the circuit are considered to be some of the best delicacies in Nepal. Also, there are many hotels and restaurants where you can even get some wester style dishes and coffee. You will definitely have no problems with the food while traveling in the Annapurna Circuit.

The NTA is very responsive and well organized agency. The Annapurna circuit was much more beautiful than I ever expected. Passing through Himalayas with snowy paths and rhododendron forests was an awesome experience. The 14 days trek gave a never forgetting experience. This could not be possible without Nepal trek adventures. Everything was managed before we reached and in a great way. The agency is really different than any other agencies in Nepal providing comfort and quality service at the same time.

I planned to hike the Annapurna Circuit in March 2015 and booked the tour by NTA. Unfortunately I had to return after 3 days due to very bad weather conditions.

In a case of emergency of a friend on the Poonhilltrek Binod & his team reacted fast und straightforward to help. Binod, Shiva, Raj, Pawan... everyone was kind and helpful.

We recently used Nepal Trek Adventures to do the Annapurna Circuit in October, and we can't say enough good things about the company and the staff. The tour company owner, Binod, was extremely organized and responsive to our concerns. He set us up with everything we needed, from a great guide and porter to airport transportation to meals and city activities and shopping for our trek. Binod arranges for his guests to stay in his own hotel, which is one of the nicest hotels in Kathmandu. Our guide Deepak was excellent. He was attentive to our needs and had no problem slowing down the pace when we were tired. He was friendly, easy to talk to, and extremely kind. He also knew all the shortcuts and which areas were dangerous. Our porter Raju was also wonderful and helped to arrange our accommodations and meals at guesthouses. We happened to be on the trek when the October 2014 blizzard hit the Annapurna region, so we eventually had to turn back. Binod, Deepak and Raju were so helpful during this time in contacting our families to let them know we were okay, as our cell phones had no signal. They even arranged to buy me a birthday cake from a local bakery the night of my birthday. Even though we could not complete the circuit, we had an excellent experience with Nepal Trek Adventures. We felt really comfortable and safe the whole time, and we would recommend NTA with enthusiasm!

I was myself doing trekking in the Annapurna circuit, I was carrying a big rucksack it was heavy but I missed my porter and I was keep going myself. Then Binod appeared with a couple, his customers actually, really nice couple, and they offered me some help with my backpack. I hesitated at first but Binop went on about and eventually we swaped our bags, his rucksack was smaller than mine. Then he told me to leave some of my stuff in the next hotel in the mountains at the beginning of the track of Annapurna base camp, and that´s what we did. We went together for 3 days till the base camp and he didn´t want any money for his service he just did it as a friend or as a support who knows, but the real thing is that I wasn´t alone any more I enjoyed their company a lot and he was so attentive to our needs, he also did the journeys incredibly pleasant because he knows the treck very well, he tell us loads of histories that happened in the Himalayas, and he has a vast experience of what he is doing. I can truly say that he does his job with pleasure and knowledge even with non-profit making. Thanks again for your kindness, your goodwill and to made us an unforgettable journey.
