WARM REGARDS
DIL GURUNG

There is no doubt about it – the Circuit!! I have done both twice, sometimes against my will !!

In a nutshell:

ABC is going through the hills aka river banks, meaning that you always go up and down. There are patches were you literally go up and down like thousand staircases. Just going down from Chomrong and then up will ruin you:) Also most of the trek is inside the forest, and in some places with a water running through the path making it muddy and slippery, not that it lasts too long, but still. Basically you enjoy it for the last two days when you are past forest. And also you have to go back on the same route, at least till Chomrong.

Circuit on the other hand has a lot of changing scenery from the lower jungle like forests up to the maple trees and fir and pines forests, apple gardens, pastures and then mountain tops with scarce vegetation. And you gain altitude more thoroughly and steady compared to ABC. You just walk on some days. Not a knee killer. I remember going down/hopping from Ghorepani to Naya Pul in one day, i could not walk for a week probably)

One too many beautiful views and side treks, and you have to go always forward. After the pass you get to another place (Mustang region) which is quite unique in its own right. Different cultures and villages on the way. People imho are nicer then gurungs on ABC, less greedy.

The only downside can be a Thorung La pass. Amazing pass, but you have to cross it and it can stop you.

If you have to choose: go on the Circuit, next time you go to Nepal you will try ABC just to learn you were right the first time.

And yes October is perfect time for both, but better start in the middle of the month otherwise there is a chance to catch some raining in the lower parts.

Also ABC is more prone to raining and clouds, in November ABC gets cloudy like on schedule after lunch.

Namaste!!! Namaste!!!

I did the circuit in March this year and I can’t recommend it enough. The range of terrain you see is amazing and because you’re there for a fairly long time you can get a proper feel for the place. If possible, do the Tillicho Lake side-trek too. In total it took us 18 days and that’s walking the whole lot from Besisahar to Nayapul taking in Poon hill on the way. It’s possible to join the ABC trek after Poon hill which will add another 5 days or so to the total.

Can’t recommend it enough

Namaste Ariana,

Hi Ariana,

I am also planning ABC or ACT in early October, are you able to decide what you wanna do, love to hear more on your research. I plan to do all by myself or with a trek buddy, no package tour for me.

Cheers

Dear Ariana
Namaste!
Many trekking and tour experts have given you the answers about your questions. Both trek are best treks in Annapurna I like Annapurna circuit more than Annapurna base camp trek.
