Overview

The Annapurna Base Camp Trek is the best choice if you want to see the mountains in their spectacular splendor and become fully immersed in the local culture. The ABC Trek is a one-of-a-kind adventure that offers a breathtaking view of the Annapurna (8091m), Machhapuchhre (6997m), and Dhaulagiri (8167m) mountains as well as the warm hospitality of Gurung towns. The ABC Trek is a pleasure for any travel enthusiast as it explores the Annapurna Conservation Area and the paths to the south of Annapurna (8091m).

The 14-day Annapurna Base Camp journey is especially designed to allow you to fully appreciate the local alpine scenery and cultural heritage. After you arrive in Kathmandu, you are given a day to explore the city’s cultural attractions. You will next drive to Pokhara after leaving Kathmandu. From Pokhara, you can see Annapurna (8091m) and Machhapuchhre (6997m) for the first time. You then go to Nayapul, where the trip begins in earnest. You walk through rhododendron groves and across stone walkways as you make your way past Ulleri and toward Ghorepani. To see the dawn over the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges, as well as Mt. Machhapuchhre (6997m) and Lamjung Himal, you will trek to Poonhill in this location . The route then turns northeast, passing Dovan and the Himalaya, and travels towards Chhomrong along the Modi River. You pass by Machhapuchhre Base Camp as well on your way to the Annapurna Base Camp. Trekkers can take in the breathtaking splendor of the Annapurna I (8091m) and many other spectacular Himalayas at the ABC. You reach Jhinu Danda the following morning after beginning your walk back to Pokhara after passing Bamboo. You can relax at the on-site natural hot springs while your body is in agony and strain. From here, you can hike to Nayapul in the south and return to Pokhara. The finest times to fully take in the splendor of the Annapurna region are in the spring (March to May) and fall (September to November).

FAQ

When you are up in the mountains in Nepal, we would suggest you to be ready for anything. Weather forecasts for Lukla are never correct and different sources will give you different information. If it is a really bad day in terms of weather, the airlines will themselves cancel the flight and you might have to wait till the weather clears. Yes, flying in high altitude is never easy, even on a clear sunny day, the plane might face turbulence because of the wind blowing from the mountains. But overall the flight to Lukla is very exciting and it’s an experience that you will never forget.
