Annapurna Base Camp Overview

This trek combines a visit to various magnificent places in the Annapurna region of the Himalayas. From the world famous viewpoint of Poon Hill we should witness a superb Himalayan sunrise. At the Annapurna Base Camp (4.130m), a natural amphitheater known as Annapurna sanctuary, mighty Himalaya giants like Annapurna 1, Annapurna 3, Annapurna South, Hiunchuli, Gangapurna, Glacier Dome and Fish Tail (Macchapuchhare) rise above 7,000 and 8,000 meter. Before entering the Annapurna Sanctuary you will spend a night at the Machhapuchhare Base Camp where a stupendous mountain vista will appear before us.

Itinerary

Meet our representative at Kathmandu airport and transfer to hotel. All the required documents, photos, passport copies etc. are collected for the preparation of all legal documents required during the trek. On the same day you'll be meeting your guide for the trek.

After the breakfast we will be heading to Pokhara by private transport which takes around 6-7 hours. On the way we would be seeing the beautiful view of the Trishuli River which is flowing side by side throughout the most of our way to Pokhara. We even get to witness the people doing rafting in Trishuli river.

Today is the first day of our trekking and we start our journey by private transport vehicle to Kande. Then we start trekking to Tolka. After walking around 3 hours up hill and around 2 hours downhill we reach our destination i.e.Tolka. Our trekking is all the way through the forest and we get to see the beautiful view of mountains (Mt. Annapurna South, Mt. Macchapuchre, Mt. Himchuli, Mt. Dhaulagiri and so on) and nature throughout the trek.

As usual we start our trek after breakfast to our next destination and today’s destination will be Chomrong. It takes around 5-6 hours going up and down hill all the way through rivers, bridges, streams, springs, local villages etc. Passing the places like Landruk, Jhinu dada which are themselves one of the famous tourism destination we reach Chomrong. From Chomrong Mt. Annapurna South and Mt. Fishtail seems very close.

Today we actually enter the valley of the ABC. It takes around 5-6 hours to reach Dovan by walking equally up and down hill and through the forests. As the altitude increases the view of the mountains seems more pleasant and beautiful.

As altitude continues to rises we start walking quite slower than usual so we stay at Deaurali which takes around 4-5 hours with all the way through forests. There is more probability of seeing the snow from today.

As we approach closer and closer to the mountains it starts getting colder. On the way to ABC we first reach MBC which takes around 3 hours and further 2hours to ABC. We will be surrounded by mountains from all sides and the density of the vegetations and plants will be thinner and thinner. It is the best and one of the nearest view point of the mountains(Mt. Annapurna I , Mt. Annapurna South , Mt. Fishtail ,Mt. Gangapurna , Mt. Annapurna II and III and much more).

We will be waking early in the morning to see the pleasing view sun rise through the mountain ranges. And after the breakfast we start our trek down to Bamboo through same way back down hill leaving MBC behind. Overnight in Bamboo.

After the breakfast we start our trek down to Jhinu danda through stones steps most of the time. We will be at Chomrong one more time while we trek down to Jhinu danda. As soon as we reach Jhinu danda we will be going to hot spring to become fresh and relax for sometimes.

After the breakfast we start our trek down to Nayapul which takes around 5-6 hours following the Modi River all the way down to Nayapul with several villages on the way. When we arrive Nayapul we go to Pokhara by 1 hour drive.

Today we will be back to Kathmandu and as trip comes to an end. We can prefer to go by private transport (6-7 hours drive) or can fly by domestic air (35minutes flight) too.
