Short
Description of Annapurna Jomsom Muktinath Trekking
Jomsom Muktinath Trekking is situated North of Pokhara,
Nepal's spectacular diversity appears at its finest
The deep valleys and high mountains encircling the
giant Annapurna Himal embrace a wide range of
peoples and terrain, from subtropical jungle to a
high, dry landscape resembling the Tibetan Plateau.
This is the most popular trekking region, attracting
over 75% of all trekkers (more than 30.000
annually). It's also among the tamest areas, with
excellent lodges lining the main routes. Finding
Nepal beneath the flood of trekkers can be
difficult, but the scenery and culture are
top-notch, and you can avoid the peak-season crush
and still get fine weather and views.
The views of the mountains are spectacular, and the
route actually crosses to the other side of the main
Himalayan range for some unusual views of the
northern flanks. |

SOME
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS BY OUR CUSTOMERS
How can I enter in Nepal?
Nepal is a popular tourist destination in
south Asia. Several airlines have direct and
non-stop flights from Middle East and Asia to
Kathmandu, Capital of Nepal.
There are direct flights from London, Paris,
Frankfurt, Doha, Osaka, Shanghi, Mascow, Bangkok,
Singapore, Hongkong, Karachi, Bombay, Delhi,
Calcutta, Paro, Dhaka, Lhasa, Varanasi.
Do I need to stay in
Katmandu?
Kathmandu is the capital of Nepal. At least, you
need to spend two nights in Kathmandu before and
after your trip. In above cost, we have included two
nights accommodation at 4 stars hotel on BB plan.
Where do we stay in
trekking?
During the trekking, we do stay at local guest house
(run by local people) which is called Tea house. Tea
Houses are more like hotels, with hot showers,
western food, and private rooms (twin sharing). In
this arrangement overnight halts with dinner and
breakfast will be in Tea-houses (Lodges) and lunches
in local restaurants en-route.
Furthermore as you will be staying in locally owned
lodges you will be benefiting and interacting with
the local community. It will give you a true feel
for the Nepalese people and their lives.
What kind of food can I get
in tea house?
While on trek you can expect to sample a variety of
local foods including such items as Tibetan fried
bread, soups, momos (steamed dumplings), daal bhat
(lentils and rice), tarkari (steamed, fried, or
curried vegetables), potatoes (prepared in dozens of
ways), pastas and even a version of pizza. Meats are
rarely eaten although you may have canned tuna or
sardines and the occasional yak stew. Breakfasts
typically consist of eggs (prepared in many ways),
hot porridge, muesli, toast, peanut butter and
honey. Hot tea is served at every meal. Although
food is looked upon as "fuel" rather than a
"culinary art", your cook will occasionally surprise
you with such delights as banana fritters and apple
crisps! You may want to bring your a few of your
favorite trail snacks.
