Highlights
The **Dhaulagiri Circuit Trek** is a challenging and remote Himalayan adventure that circles the world’s seventh-highest peak, **Mt. Dhaulagiri (8,167 m)**.
Known for its dramatic landscapes, the route crosses high passes like the **French Pass (5,360 m)** and **Dhampus Pass (5,240 m)**, taking trekkers through rugged valleys, glaciers, and isolated mountain villages.
Less crowded than other major routes, it offers an authentic wilderness experience with breathtaking views of Dhaulagiri, Tukuche Peak, and the Hidden Valley.
This trek is best suited for experienced trekkers seeking a demanding but unforgettable journey.

As we cannot eliminate all sources of carbon emissions for our tours, we have decided to donate €10 per client to high impact pro-climate nonprofits recommended by the world's leading climate charity evaluators.
