Notes
Although the lower sections of the Annapurna Circuit receive monsoon rain, once you reach Manang, the climate becomes much drier due to the rain shadow effect. The trek combines lush green forests, alpine landscapes, traditional villages, and the iconic Thorong La Pass.
August is the peak monsoon season in Nepal, but that doesn’t mean trekking is off the table. While many popular trails receive frequent rain, several destinations either lie in the Himalayan rain shadow or still offer rewarding experiences despite the monsoon.
