Trekking the Annapurna Circuit

If you’ve ever gone on a trekking adventure, you would have probably heard – or said – something like this: “No more high altitude treks. No more self-torture. This is definitely my last!”

I experienced those same sentiments while recently out trekking the Annapurna Circuit (AC), one of Nepal’s most famous and classic trails that stretches over 250km in the Himalayas.
