Route shape
From a road-access trailhead, the route typically links the Chhomrong area with the valley towards Deurali, Machhapuchhre Base Camp and Annapurna Base Camp, then returns down the valley.
Time and pace
A preliminary planning allowance is 8–12 days from Pokhara, adjusted to trailhead, fitness, acclimatisation and rest needs. Shortened online itineraries should not determine your personal pace.
Mountain conditions
High sections can face snow, avalanche hazards and poor weather. The guide and current local information determine whether to proceed. Keep flexibility for a delay or turn-around.
Lodges and logistics
Teahouses provide basic overnight services. Confirm meals, porters if needed, luggage storage and what happens if the itinerary changes.
Road support
Vehicle service is for the approach and return. The main trekking stages are on foot; we confirm reachable pickup points for your dates.
