Tour Highlights

The Annapurna Base Camp (ABC) Trek is the finest journey that takes trekkers through the heart of the Annapurna Himalayas, giving breathtaking scenes of snow-tilled peaks and an extraordinary oneness of nature. This world-renowned trekking trail starts through the lowlands and ascends on, leading through the base of the acceptable Annapurna range. You will be enchanted by the changing landscapes—from several terraced fields and dense forests to the rugged alpine terrain of the place, each turn disclosing new amazement. The trail also goes through the predominant Annapurna Conservation Area, a biodiversity home to various flora and fauna. As you trek downward, you will encounter charming villages and friendly locals who will show Nepal’s great cultural diversity. This mix of natural beauty and cultural immersion makes the ABC trek a great experience.

The journey officially begins in Nayapul, a small town that is a two-hour drive through the Pokhara. It proceeds through beautiful villages inhabited by the Thakali, Magar, and Gurung communities. Their warm hospitality, rare traditions, and lifestyle add depth to the trekking experience. As you move through, you will pass through lush green-tilted bamboo and full rhododendron forests, vibrant with sparks and color, cool crystal-clear streams, and fine waterfalls. The culmination of the great trek through Annapurna Base Camp, set at an altitude of 4,130 meters, offers phenomenal views of tall giants like Mt. Fang (7647m), Annapurna I (8091m), Annapurna South (7273m), Gangapurna (7454m), the Glacier Dome, and the iconic Mt. Fishtail (6997m). Standing at the theatre of mountains is a good and awe-inspiring experience, marking the ideal finale to a trek filled with adventure, culture, and natural beauty.
