Tour Overview

Annapurna Base Camp Trek is also known as Annapurna Sanctuary. This route can be explored all year round. However, the trail is beyond beautiful in spring. All the happiness and growth that occurs while hiking makes the most beautiful life on top of the mountain. Annapurna Base Camp is the most popular trekking destination in Nepal after Everest Base Camp. In addition, also is one of the top trekking destinations in the world.

Culturally wealthy and the warmth of native communities, spectacular 360-degree view of Himchuli and Annapurna. And the exotic flora-fauna is the number of the assets of the trek.

One receives far more than seeks trail from Ghandruk to Chomrong, a long walk along the mountain before it dips into the forest and continues up the other side of the valley. In every walk with nature, hearing the calls of a plenitude of woodpeckers, babblers, and minivets is visible. The path is easy to navigate and the red and white signs are painted on the dressed stones, an initiative by a couple of individuals in tandem with the Annapurna Conservation Area Project.

The beauty of hiking is that it is truly an activity for everyone. Whether we are young or old, an expert or an amateur, there’s a trail out there that will be perfect. It is a massif‒ a large mountain mass‒ that includes a peak over 8,000 meters (26,000 ft), thirteen peaks over 7,000m (23,000 ft), and sixteen others over 6,000m (20,000 ft). At 4,130 m, the spectacular snow-capped peaks, like the supreme Annapurna I (8,091m) and its sisters South and Fang, an amazing view of Hiunchuli, Gangapurna, Khangsar Kang, Tent Peak, and the iconic Machapuchare, also known as Fishtail Mountain surrounds you.

The snow-capped mountains and the glorious scenes in the morning from just outside the window. While walking the trails of Annapurna Base Camp Trek, we will walk across the Gurung settlement. Ghandruk is a popular Gurung village where lots of tourists visit every year.


Highlights

  • Gurung village, Forest of rhododendrons and oaks A glimpse of rural Nepalese lifestyle
