Annapurna Circuit Trek in آذر: what to expect

December is early winter. Skies are usually clear and the air is crisp and calm, with few trekkers on the trails. Nights at altitude are very cold, water can freeze in lodges, and snow may close high passes after a storm. Some lodges at the highest villages shut for the season. Beds and flights are easy to book, but partners are fewer, so post your dates early and be flexible. Bring a four-season sleeping bag, warm layers and a plan for a rest day if the weather turns. If you can only travel in the holidays, pick a lower route or a shorter loop and keep your partner's dates flexible by a day or two.

Annapurna Circuit in December is cold. Snow on Thorong La at 5,416 m can stop crossings, lodges in the high villages begin to close, and some trekkers choose the lower Kali Gandaki side only. Check conditions before committing.

General seasonal guidance, not a forecast. Conditions change year to year; confirm weather, flights and trail status with your guide or lodge before you go.
