Trip Overview

Incredible fun strolling to the chilly bowl of Annapurna Base Camp through the lavish vegetation Poonhill and socially rich Gurung towns.

Annapurna Base Camp trek is likely the most lovely stroll into the mind-boggling characteristic amphitheater shaped by the superbly breathtaking Himalayan pinnacles. The close-up views of soaring snow-capped peaks like Gangapurna (7454m), Annapurna 1 (8091m), the virgin peak Fang (7647m) and Annapurna South (7273m) and the most unique peak Fishtail 6997m are great highlights of the Annapurna Basecamp Trekking.

This moderately challenging trek to Annapurna Sanctuary via Poon Hill begins after a short drive from Pokhara to Nayapul. The trek to ABC begins along the trail that winds through Modi Khola Valley cross passes the alpine woodlands, frequently emerging to the elevated hamlets to get into the paradise of snowy ABC.

The trail to Annapurna Base Camp keeps changing the landscapes as it gradually climbs uphill it transforms its natural landscapes from the riverbank to the thick oak forests, rhododendron forests and from summer grazing lands to the rich pastures. The trekking to Annapurna Sanctuary during spring is a greater experience as; the trial is redolent with colorful rhododendron blossoming throughout. Cultural encounter at several ethnically opulent Gurung hamlets and the most popular mountain viewpoint in Annapurna Region, Poon hill will keep on rewarding throughout this easy trek in Nepal. The sunrise view from Poon hill is probably the most beautiful in the region. As we enter the Annapurna Sanctuary, the spectacular views of Mt. Fishtail and Huinchuli will mesmerize you. Besides, the Annapurna Conservation Area Project (ACAP) is the best-opted home for 100 species of mammals, 60 reptiles and amphibians, and more than 450 different species of birds.

The prime highlights of this trek are the panoramas of glaciated Himalayan giants from different positions. The hospitable receptions in the villages you pass by throughout any trek in Nepal are regarded as bountiful rewards of the trekking adventures in Nepal.

First time in Nepal – Annapurna Trek

We spent a great time in Nepal this October. Bashu is extremly friendly and can solve every unexpected situation with his well prepared team. Ram who was our guide during the treking knew when we need some rest and when we could hurry a bit, during the 14 days trek we never felt ourself tired. I hope we meet again soon.
