Itinerary

Imagine standing at the heart of the Himalayas, surrounded by a ring of towering peaks—this is the magic of the Annapurna Base Camp Trek. Few journeys allow you to approach 7000- to 8000-meter giants with such accessibility, making this trek a favorite for both novice and seasoned adventurers. Over 7 to 11 days (with an 11-day itinerary highlighted here), travelers are led from the terraced fields of Nayapul and the famed Poon Hill sunrise to the enchanting rhododendron forests and into the Modi Kola Valley.

Each day brings new scenery, from lush rice paddies to dramatic high-altitude landscapes, culminating at the base camp itself at 4,130 meters—framed by Annapurna I, Machapuchhre, and more. The route is dotted with welcoming lodges, so you can trek light and focus on the experience rather than logistics. Trekking here means not only spectacular views but also immersion in local culture as you pass through mountain villages and interact with Nepali hospitality.

The unique selling point of this trekking tour is its unparalleled proximity to some of the world’s highest peaks with a moderate level of effort. Ideal for those eager to witness Himalayan grandeur without extreme difficulty, this trek promises a scenic, accessible adventure in one of Nepal’s most iconic regions.

Solo woman trek to ABC happy and successful

I had a fantastic time all through the trek. It was extremely awesome view, great food and stay. I felt safe traveling alone through the local operator. All credits go to Upendra for planning the trip. He responds quickly and promptly. Highly treatable and took care of everything. I didn't have to worry or think about anything. Krishna was my guide and porter. Awesome friend, highly recommend him as a guide. I added Chitwan and Kathmandu tour. It was the best trip to chitwan. I did tower night, jungle walk, private safari, elephant ride. Every day was exciting and joyous. Krishna was a good guide with sharp eyes. If you wanna do bird watching and spot wildlife, highly recommend him. I saw so many rare birds. Got a lady guide Sushma for Kathmandu tour. Another extraordinary day. She added a trip to Kalabairav for me. Highly recommend her. She is calm, understanding, knowledgeable and great photographer. Very imp guide is a good photographer for solo trips. I had Krishna and Sushma help me all along the way. They are guides who turned to be great friends. We had an amazing time all along. I am so happy and proud. Love nepal! Definitely will be back soon.

Annapurna Base Camp - October 2018

The views high up are worth every step . It's hard work but, you are trekking in the Himalaya's so, you expect that. What is interesting is that, every day, when you get to the day's destination, you forget that it was hard work during the trek and wonder at the scenery before you. Totally Recommended

An unforgettable experience in the Himalaya

We had a wonderful experience trekking to Annapurna base camp. To be able to hike next to these mountainous giants was breathtaking and an experience I will never forget. We had the pleasure to be accompanied by Purna, who was our excellent guide. His pace was perfect for this trek, in the evening we had lots of fun talking or playing cards, and he was concerned with our well-being at all times! In conclusion, we had the most amazing time at ABC and if we come back we will definitely ask for Purna to be our guide again!
