Route guides
Two great circuits that meet at Dharapani. We compare the Manaslu Circuit and the Annapurna Circuit on days, altitude, the Larkya La and Thorong La, permits and cost, crowds, roads, teahouses, culture and difficulty, and explain who each one suits and how to walk both.
Route guides
Plan the Manaslu Circuit for 2026–27: the Restricted Area Permit fees by season, MCAP and ACAP, the March 2026 rule that lets solo trekkers get a permit, acclimatising at Samagaon, Larkya La day, the road to Machha Khola, teahouse standards, seasons and adding the Tsum Valley.
Permits and rules
Which permits each Nepal trek needs in 2026, what they cost, where they are issued and checked, and what documents to bring. Includes the March 2026 solo restricted-area change, the new Upper Mustang daily fee and a permit table for every trek we run.
