Best time for trek

Typically, the optimal periods for trekking in the Annapurna region are from September to November and March to May. During these months, the weather tends to be dry and the vistas offer unobstructed clarity. Nonetheless, it’s imperative to ready yourself for abrupt shifts in weather conditions and to stay vigilant about the risks of altitude sickness, particularly when trekking at significant elevations.

Your appointed guide will furnish comprehensive insights into the local populace, cultural practices, and traditions, as well as the diverse plant and animal life. Our team benefits from robust insurance coverage provided by Nepal Wilderness Trekking Pvt., an officially registered government agency situated in Kathmandu. Spearheaded by the guide and porter team, this trekking agency brings forth years of collective experience, having served as porters and porter guides under various banners.

It’s worth considering that porters usually have a weight restriction of approximately 20-25 kg, encompassing their personal effects as well. Therefore, it’s advisable to pack judiciously, factoring in the weight limit and the essentials you’ll require throughout the trek.

How much wage for guides and porters per day?

The wages for guides and porters in Nepal vary depending on several factors, including the trekking route, duration, and the number of trekkers in the group. The rates are also subject to negotiation between the trekking agency and the guide/porter.

For the Annapurna trek with the Nepal Wilderness Trekking team, the wage structure is as follows:
