Before joining the Annapurna Semi Circuit Trek with Treklanders Adventures, I had never been to such a high altitude, so the experience felt both exciting and intimidating. Our guide Hari was incredibly reassuring and professional, explaining how altitude affects the body and making sure we followed a slow, safe pace. He checked on us regularly and made the acclimatization days feel purposeful rather than stressful. Reaching Thorang-La Pass at over 5,400 meters was something I never imagined I could do, and the surrounding Himalayan views were overwhelming in the best way. Huge thanks to our porter Bikash, whose strength and positive attitude made the journey smoother every day. The cultural atmosphere in Manang, Mustang, and at Muktinath added deep meaning to the trek. Comfortable teahouses, good meals, and excellent support made this high-altitude adventure unforgettable and well worth it.
