The Yoga Trek Nepal combines the classic Annapurna Base Camp trek with daily yoga and meditation sessions led by a certified instructor. Each morning begins with 60 minutes of gentle yoga and pranayama (breathwork), and each evening ends with 30 minutes of restorative yoga and meditation. The combination of mindful movement, conscious breathing, and slow acclimatization creates a uniquely focused trekking experience. The trek follows the standard Pokhara–Nayapul–Ghandruk–Chhomrong–Dovan-ABC route with proper acclimatization. The yoga is accessible to all levels – beginners welcome.
