Annapurna Circuit is world famous adventure trek. This trek is a relatively more strenuous trek than that of the base camp. However, where the similarities arise between the two treks is in terms of the topographical terrain- trekkers can be start both treks from subtropical zones, going through deciduous trans-Himalayan woods and ascend along alpine regions. The major difference in the route between the two treks, the takes the route through Manang and has trails that go to Thorong High Camp. Most the trekkers doing the Circuit Trek acclimatize at Manang to prepare for the Thorong La Pass (5416m) further along the journey. The journey possess forested hills and thick woods, towards Manang Village, the terrain changes and the vibrancy is quickly replaced by treeless rocky slopes. The trekking trail also reaches Muktinath Temple, one of the most revered famous Hindus and Buddhist temples in Nepal. And after Muktinath trek to beautiful villages to be reach like Jhong, Jharkot, Kagbeni, Marpha (Marpha is famous for apple garden and by apple kinds of products and old monastery), Tukuche, Larjung, Kalopany, Ghasha, Tatopani ( Enjoy natural hot spring bath), Shikha, Chitre and Ghorepani.
The trekking trail of the Annapurna Base Camp Trek is to reach the base camp itself, which is reached after going through famous ethnic Gurung villages like Ghorepani, Ghandruk, Chhomrong, Sinuwa, Bamboo, Dovan and Deurali. Where the Annapurna Circuit takes trekkers to high mountain passes and revered places like Muktinath, the Annapurna Base camp Trek takes you through high alpine settlements and to the vantage point of Poon Hill (from Poon Hill can seen excellent sunrise view ansd beautiful mountain range). The major differences between the Annapurna Circuit Trek and the Annapurna Base Camp Trek. can also be done during the winter month of December, but it might prove difficult to do the Annapurna Circuit Trek during the winters because of the mountain pass getting blocked by snow. A more longer and strenuous trek, trekkers can be prefer the Annapurna Circuit. Trekkers are looking for something that is relatively easier. Mountain Layeras Treks and Expedition Pvt.
