Upper Pisang to Manang
(vero;2017-Feb-28)
This part of the Annapurna Circuit, the Upper Route and the valley around Manang, is one of the highlights of the trek. The trail leaves the valley (and the road) in Dhukur Pokhari to reach Upper Pisang where most trekkers stay for the night. The following day is trekking at its best: after a steep climb to the village of Gyaru, the path skirts the mountain without losing much height offering superb views all the way, passing the villages of Ngawal and Julu, before re-descending to the valley bottom to reach Braga and Manang.
The valley around Braga and Manang is wide and cultivated, a great opportunity to watch village life, with people tending their fields and going about their business.
