In spring, the mid-hills come alive with vibrant wildflowers, particularly the rhododendron in full bloom. In autumn, the skies are typically crystal clear, providing spectacular views, though it can be colder, especially at higher elevations.


    Culture and Religion of the Annapurna Region:
    The Annapurna Circuit takes you through a mix of cultural influences. The lower regions are predominantly home to the Gurung, Magar, and Newar people, with Hindu and Buddhist practices coexisting. As you ascend to the Manang Valley, the population predominantly consists of Tibetan-descended Gurung and Ghale people, who follow Tibetan Buddhism.
