The Annapurna Base Camp trek is great as it offers different types of natural landscapes like valleys, mountain peaks, rivers, waterfalls, mountain passes, meadows, glaciers and so on. With so many natural landscapes to witness during just one trekking route, it's almost sure to impress you.
The trek starts from Dhampus which is very near to Pokhara. The trail then continues through the Rhododendron forests of the Hinko Cave, passing via the Gurung villages of Chomrong and Landrung, ascending up through Modi Khola, until finally reaching higher altitudes getting to Annapurna Base Camp at +4135 meters. Upon ending the trek we will catch a bus back to Pokhara and finally get back to Kathmandu.

How much money do I need to bring with me?
Your personal budget obviously depends on your spending habits and what is included in your trip cost. If accommodation is included, but meals are not, we would suggest that you bring around 30 USD per day per person for meals. Having a hot shower or charging your device sometimes costs extra. There are also sometimes small crafts/souvenirs to buy along the trekking route which you may want to bring extra money for. Also, consider whether you would be staying in Kathmandu or Pokhara before or after your trek.
- Is quarantine in Nepal in effect for arriving visitors?
-
How much should my backpack weigh?
A properly packed backpack (not including your day pack) should ideally not weigh more than 13 kg. It is also important to note that if you are taking a flight to the start of your trek, many smaller aircraft have weight restrictions. For example, if you are flying from Kathmandu to Lukla, you are only allowed 10kg of checked luggage, and 5 kg of hand baggage. Thus, in case of a small flight, you should ideally pack a 10 kg backpack for checked luggage, and then add 5 kg in your hand baggage. You can then re-shuffel the weigt once you start your trek at the trailhead.
- Do I need a porter?
-
Do I require a porter for carrying water?
On most popular treks you can expect plenty of places where you can refill your water bottle, meaning you don’t need to carry a huge water supply with you. Bring an extra bottle of water if you are concerned. If you already have a porter, you can ask him/her to carry water as long as it is within the weight limit. Another option is to carry water purification tablets or LifeStraw, both of which can be found in Kathmandu.
