Description

Annapurna Base Camp Luxury Trek (13546ft) hailed as one of the world's most legendary and classical journeys. This trek unfolds awe-inspiring mountain vistas combined with unique local culture.
Trekking in the Annapurnas basecamp is a quintessential experience for every visitor to Nepal. Unlike some other challenging regions, the Annapurnas offer a diverse range of landscapes, from majestic mountains to lush forests and rich cultural encounters. Whether you're traveling with family, are a seasoned trekker, or a newcomer to trekking, the Annapurna region caters to all preferences, with trek durations ranging from a short 5 days to around two weeks.

What sets the Annapurnas apart is that you don't have to trek for days before feeling the mountain presence. Even as you prepare for your trek in Pokhara, you're treated to up-close views of the mountains, particularly the iconic Fishtail (Machhapuchhare). From day one, you're immersed in the mountainous terrain.

An immensely popular trek in the region is the Annapurna Base Camp trek, where you have the opportunity to explore not one but two base camps: Annapurna and Machhapucchre. Along the way, you traverse villages inhabited by the Gurung people, known for their resilience and friendly demeanor.

The landscape is a visual feast, featuring hot water pools at Jhinu Danda, the mighty Modi Khola river, pine and rhododendron forests, and towering mountains. The views from both base camps, including the distinctive fishtail shape of Machhapucchre, Mt Hiunchuli, Annapurna South, Annapurna I, and Annapurna III, are nothing short of breathtaking. The trek culminates at Annapurna Base Camp, reaching an altitude of 4,130 m / 13,546 ft, with only one night spent at high altitude, minimizing the risk of altitude-related illnesses on this eight-day trek suitable for all seasons.

Commencing and concluding in Pokhara (with transport options from/to Kathmandu provided), this enviable trek promises a delightful blend of vibrant flora and fauna, majestic mountain vistas, warm encounters with locals, and moments of relaxation by the serene lake in Pokhara. It's an adventure that caters to every explorer's desires.
