Annapurna Base Camp Trek Overview

The Annapurna Base Camp Trek, known as the premier trekking experience in Nepal, commences in the picturesque city of Pokhara and unfolds with breathtaking beauty. Following the Modi River valley, the journey gradually ascends to Annapurna Base Camp (ABC), also known as the Annapurna Sanctuary trek, nestled between the towering Annapurna I (8091m) and the majestic Fishtail (6993m) peaks. Embarking with a jeep ride to Matkyu, the trek progresses through terraced fields and enchanting Gurung villages. It traverses diverse landscapes, from lush rhododendron forests to high-altitude alpine meadows, passing through bamboo and rhododendron forests, rocky trails, and above the tree line. This trekking offers a harmonious blend of cultural encounters, diverse flora and fauna, Himalayan birds, animals, and panoramic views of towering peaks.

It vary along the route, with comfortable guest houses in lower villages, while MBC (Machapuchare Base Camp) and ABC have limited guest house facilities. During peak seasons, room sharing with other tourists or sleeping in dining rooms may be necessary. Lower villages typically provide rooms with attached bathrooms, whereas upper villages may have shared bathroom facilities. WIFI availability is present in some villages, but reception may be limited in the upper regions.

Our trekking guide ensures your convenience by pre-booking accommodations through timely calls. The Annapurna Base Camp trek offers distinct seasonal experiences, with full rhododendron blossoms in spring, snow-covered landscapes in winter, and the possibility of continuous rain and landslides during the rainy season.
