What you need

The whole trek lies inside the Annapurna Conservation Area, so you need an Annapurna Conservation Area Permit (ACAP). The table above shows the current fee with its official source.

Where to get it

Ask us for current details.

Your permit is checked at ACAP checkpoints along the trail, so keep it easy to reach.

Do you need a guide?

Since 1 April 2023, Nepal requires foreign trekkers in national parks and conservation areas to trek with a licensed guide. See our guide rules explainer for the details and sources; we confirm the current position when you book.

When you book with us, your guide arranges the permit and the fee is part of your quote.
