The most epic hike in Nepal

The Annapurna Circuit was one of the best trips I’ve done. After flying into Kathmandu and dealing with the permits, I caught a bus to Besisahar and started off the trek. The first few days were pretty chill—walking through small villages and farmland, with nice views of the mountains in the distance. The best part for me was getting to Manang. The scenery really changed there—it got drier, less trees and I could see those massive peaks up close. I took a rest day in Manang to let my body adjust to the altitude, which was a good call. I just wandered around, drank tea, and enjoyed the vibe. The toughest day was crossing Thorong La Pass. I started super early to avoid the wind, but it still felt like forever. The altitude was rough, and I was just counting the steps. It was snowing and very cold at the top but still I was happy and proud of my accomplishment. The rest of the trek was pretty easy after that, and in 5 days I got to Pokhara. If you do this, just take it slow, drink lots of water, and enjoy the views. It’s a long journey, but totally worth it and surely the most scenic hike Ive done so far. #mountainhike #nepal #himalayas
