nepalguide
Annapurna Circuit or Nar phu valley goes to Trek in Nepal in July to first August
as the best section of this is in the Himalayan so rain shadow and this are gets very little rain even in the middle of the monsoon as it is to the north of the main Himalayan ranges chain and 90% of the rain falls on the southern slopes (Neither EBC, Langtang, Kanchenjunga, Makalu or ABC treks are in the Himalayan Rain Shadow) Places like Tilicho Lake (Possible side extension of AC from Manang) are Best visited at this time of year – I visited and guided many time Tilicho Lake during a Monsoon We see the best views of the year on my experience
Ok you will get a bit wet on your first few days trekking but once above Pasang the weather will improve, then you have three choices on the Kali Gandaki side from Jomsom, – Fly, Jeep or get wet again and trek.
Alternatively if your budget is bigger than Upper Mustang is another excellent choice for this time of year (June July and August). – I did this trek more than 10 times during a monsoon it was Awesome!
One thing to mention is that you need a minimum of two people to trek Upper Mustang (Or you have to pay double the permit price i.e. 2 x $500!!)
