About this activity

Annapurna Base Camp is not only a trek, it’s a tradition. Located in the vicinity of the Annapurna Conservation area, this trek takes us to the west of Kathmandu. Trekking in the foothill of the Annapurna Massif, trekkers can enjoy the view of the mystic peaks of the western Himalayas including the great Annapurna Range, Mt. Macchapuchhre (6,993m), Mt. Dhaulagiri (8,167m) and many others. The view of the rivers flowing down these numinous peaks and the deep Rhododendron, oak and bamboo forests are something to look for.

As we trek through the diverse landscape we will pass through several villages and get a chance to observe their culture and lifestyle. The forest provides us shade and the pleasant walk through the open grassland and meadow while gazing upon the huge eloquent mountain peaks feel the heart with ecstasy like no other. By the time we reach the Annapurna Base camp (4,130m) we will be endowed with the blessing of nature and culture like never before.

The trek to the popular Annapurna Base Camp is a rigorous one. Although the difficulty level is not that high, we will still need some level of physical fitness to go along. The tiring staircase, as well as the rocky trails, will push us to the limit. As we will trekking as high as 4,000m we will need to get accustomed to the high altitude. As such, acclimatization play a huge role. But, all is not bad. As we enjoy the western Himalayas and trek through the beautiful land, much of that strains alleviate by the beauty of nature.

Day to Day Itinerary
It’s a long drive to Pokhara via the Prithvi highway. The view of the countryside, terraced farmland, and Trishuli river will keep us company way though. Passing through various cities we will reach Pokhara where we will set our luggage. Boating, cycling and enjoy the exquisite city of Lakes. No meals included.
We drive all the way to Gurung village of Ghandruk. This city is blessed with the view of the Annapurna range as well as Mt. MAcchapuchhre (6,993) and the availability of the cherry blossoms in the area makes it even more spectacular. Descending down the forest we reach Kimrong river. From there we climb the hill and reach Kimrong village. 3 hours of drive. 4 hours of walk. BLD included.
Climbing the hill and through the forest, we will reach an open land. Walking some more and we will reach Chhmrong (2,310m). Then after a long descent through the stone staircase, we cross a long suspension bridge. Again, it’s a long way up to Sinuwa. From there, we trek through the Bamboo forest and hillside and crossing Bamboo we reach Deurali. 6 hours of walk. BLD included.
We start off early and walk up and down the rocky trails. From there, we will come across a wide grassy land that continues for miles. The mountains look shiny and highlighted from the distance. Their peak looks glittering with sunlight. It’s a peaceful walk until alongside the river until we reach a long staircase to Macchapuchhre Base camp. It’s a good place to enjoy the great fishtail mountain which looks huge from up close. After resting for a while we slowly walk towards Annapurna Base camp. 8 hours of walk. BLD included.
Early morning, the view of the sunrise reflecting upon the Annapurna ranges is a sight to behold. We take our breakfast and walk back the way we came. It’s downhill so the trek becomes easier. Walking past the grassland and forest we cross Deurali and reach Sinuwa by dawn. 7 hours of walk. BLD Included.
From Sinuwa we drop down through the long arduous stairs to cross the suspension bridge. Then we climb another series of awfully long stairs to reach Chhomrong. From there, we use a different path back home. We descend down the steep hill and reach JhinuDanda to reach the famous natural hot spring. Take a dip and we are good to go. We descend some more and stay overnight at an inn. 6 hours of walk. BLD included.
Early morning after breakfast, we trek through the farmland. The walk is pleasant as there are no climbs. Through the terraced landscape, we reach Nayapul. From there we drive back to Pokhara through the winding roads alongside the great Modi Khola. Rest the luggage in the hotel and there will be plenty of time to enjoy the clean and tourist city of Pokhara. 2 hours of walk. 3 hours of drive. Breakfast included.
We will drive back to the capital city through the same winding roads, with the view of the huge hills, white rivers and the terraced farmland from our window. We will stop by the highway for lunch and toilet break. Reaching Kathmandu, you can freshen up and stroll around the city and enjoy the exquisite nightlife at Thamel. You can also buy some souvenirs to take back home.
