    Bad weather cuts short Annapurna Circuit treks in Manang

    Incessant rainfall and difficult weather have forced international visitors travelling through the Annapurna Circuit Trek to curtail their journeys and head back to Lamjung. According to the Annapurna Conservation Area Project, 246 travellers have retreated from Manang within the past week alone, abandoning plans to cross the high-altitude pass towards Mustang and Pokhara. Officials noted that daily visitor numbers through Dharapani previously reached up to 150 individuals, but arrivals have now slowed to a trickle as travellers avoid escalating environmental risks along the trail.
