Annapurna Base Camp trek is one of the most popular and trekked routes in Nepal. Second, only to the Everest region in terms of popularity, the ABC Trek which in the Annapurna region is the most diverse and versatile region in Nepal as it houses the wettest, driest, and windiest places in the country. The trekking trail passes through beautiful and culturally rich Nepalese hamlets as we trek through cascading waterfalls, terraced farms, mystical rhododendron forests, and lush grasslands to reach the base of the regal Annapurna Massif. Located in northwestern Nepal, the 55-kilometer-long Annapurna Massif consists of one peak above an elevation of 8,000m, 13 peaks above 7,000m elevation, and over 16 peaks above 6,000m elevation. The Annapurna Base Camp trekking and Pun Hill trekking offer ample time to rejoice in the close company of the mountains.
The trek will be an extremely gratifying one as we will be able to witness majestic peaks like Annapurna 1, 2, and 3, Gangapurna, Himchuli, and Machhapuchhre amongst equally alluring satellite peaks. The trek is also often described as the best of both worlds because alongside the Himalayan beauty and experience it offers to trekkers, it also opens the doors to the rich civilizations of the Gurungs and the Puns residing in the sub-alpine regions of western Nepal. As we pass through the diverse vegetation, elevations, and civilization, the Annapurna Base Camp trek and Pun Hill trekking offer the journey to explore the unexploited nature and culture waiting for you in Nepal.
The Annapurna Base Camp trek and poon Hill trekking begin with a scenic 6-hour-long bus ride from Kathmandu to the Lake City, Pokhara. A tourist marvel in itself, Pokhara is also the gateway to most of the trekking regions of Western Nepal. From Pokhara, we will commence our trekking towards Ghorepani and Poon Hill – famous villages and viewpoints of the trail within the Annapurna Conservation Area. After savoring the splendid views of the western mountains and indulging in the rich traditions of the natives with a visit to the local museum, we will continue our trek northwards. After proper acclimatization, we will trek towards the sub-alpine, arid landscape with the views of Mt. Annapurna and Mt. Machhapuchhre looming in the backdrop.
After exiting Ghorepani and Poon Hill trekking, we will trek through the magical forests of rhododendron, birch, fir, and pine to trek towards our main destination – Annapurna Base Camp trekking. In the jungles, we might have a sighting of Musk deer, Pheasants, and Himalayan Thar.
We will trek through Chomrong, Dovan, and Machhapuchhre Base Camp to finally reach the base of Mt. Annapurna. From here, we can have 360-degree views of the soaring silver peaks, and colossal Annapurna and Gangapurna glaciers which originate from the massif. Since the Annapurna Base camp trek route goes clockwise, we will not be returning from the same route. We will trek down to Jhinu Danda from Bamboo, where we can take a bath in hot springs. From there, we will trek down to Pokhara through Potana and Kande. The trek is of moderate difficulty even though it comprises higher elevations. Anyone in good physical health and previous trekking experience is a good candidate for the trek.

Provide a pulse oximeter for the blood oxygen saturation level monitor at high altitudes.
Yes, you can refill your water bottle with boiled or purified water in the teahouses. It is better not to drink the water from the tap or the small streams as it might have negative effects on your health. So, to prevent that you should carry some purifying tablets with you.
The trek is moderate as there will be no climbing with ropes and all. Most of the trails such as Mardi Himal Trek and Annapurna Base Camp Trek involve long paths that might need you to go up and downs. So, it might be difficult for some people with back and ankle problems. But, with proper guidance and enough break times, almost anyone can complete the trek.
The Poonhill trek’s elevation is 3,190 m while the elevation of Thorong-la pass is 5,416 m. Generally, people get the symptoms of altitude sickness once they pass the 3000m elevation.

Traveling alone can sometimes be the best thing you can do for yourself. But, with our guide, you will be well taken care of during the trek. Our company keeps the safety of women travelers as the top priority.
It is not necessary to spend your night in tents as there are several tea houses along the trek. So, we will not be using tents during the trek unless you want to have that kind of experience. If you have then you should probably let us know beforehand.
Well, it depends pretty much on what trek you choose. Some treks involve a lot of difficult paths and routes so, it will be hard for you to carry heavy bags on your own. Hiring a porter can be beneficial as you can fully enjoy the trek without having a backache.
The mobile phone signal has reached most of the Annapurna Region. So, in case you miss someone from your home you can quickly check upon them. There are also many phone services like charging and recharge cards in almost every part of the Annapurna Region if you need them.
Unfortunately, there aren’t such facilities for ATMs. So, you need to use the service before and after the trekking at Pokhara.

I and my wife met with Shyam Sitaula in the 2008 year at our common first trek to Annapurna Base Camp. He was not only our guide, but our hospitality and friendly guardian from early wake–up to late evening. After 8 years of our connection, we can say that he is to become our perfect trekking guide and (it is important) our great friend. During this time we made 3 common trekkings from 10 days to nearly 5 weeks trek ( ABC, EBC with Gokyo, classic Annapurna Circuit – all based on our own plans ). We made with him also another trip to Nepal after trekking. Always all things were excellent organized and all the time we were in safe hands. But the great additional value to our trekking was his friendly care in each moment of trekking and our long afternoon talks. We think that his new trekking business will be perfectly made and our next trekking in 2016 we prepare and make with Shyam Sitaula and his agency.
Namaste!!!! A group of 4 of us joined the Annapurna Base Camp (ABC) trek in April 2014 which gave us a totally different and amazing trekking experience. We started our trek with anxiety and insecurity, worried about not being able to finish the trek or the most scary altitude sickness. Thank God that we have engaged with the team Himalaya who has made our trek so memorable and successful. Ganesh is a very experienced guide who is caring, helpful, friendly, and responsible. He explained all the details that we needed to know before we started the trek, prepared us with the best way to avoid altitude sickness (even ready with medicine if in need), continuous encouragement whenever we were exhausted and felt like giving up, and even there’s one time my hand accidentally touched a plant with thorns and swallowed, he quickly got me some kind of leaves for curing, and it WORKED!
4 of us enjoyed our trek along the way with superb fascinating scenery and nature. 2 of our cute and nice potters who carried our 60kg of luggage were always ahead of us. We can be trekking under the sun, in rain and hail within a day, and what a great experience to make us a stronger person.
I remember when we were approaching the 2nd last stop of ABC (Machhapuchchhre Base Camp), it was snowing so heavily that we couldn’t even see the trek in front. I was dragging my extremely tired and cold body to the next stop while Ganesh was rushing up to take care of me, guided me to the stop then rushed down again to accompany my other friends. He really gave us his best which we appreciated very much!
There’s one time we passed by the avalanche area and heard the sound of it coming. Ganesh with his great trekking experience guided us through safe and sound. While we came down from ABC, the snowy melting trek made it very slippery. Ganesh was the one who used his hands and sticks to “make” stairs in the snowy mountain for my friend who almost fell down the way to trek down safe and steady.. and I know she was so touched!!
There’s another enjoyment when trekking with team Himalaya.. that’s delicious and “eat all your can” meals which we were looking forward to every hour!! We learned the Nepalese song from our guide and potters and played games with them after a day trek!
In short, this trek was superb and we were blessed to have engaged the right company for a very successful trek in life!! Thank you very much!
I just wanted to say that we all had a fantastic time – it was truly an amazing journey and a wonderful experience.
Our guide Dawa was excellent very good, knowledgeable, and funny. Overall, it was an amazing experience I will never forget. Looking forward to trek once more with this team in the future. Can't recommend this experience highly enough.
We had an amazing trip with Team Himalaya! We trekked through different scenery every day, and the views were breathtaking. Waking up to glorious sunrises, seeing beautiful sunsets, and the changing landscape, all combined to make it the best holiday we have ever had. Our guide Dawa was highly experienced and obviously very concerned with making our trek as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. Much appreciated. Everything from food, accommodation, and transportation was arranged very professionally. Would highly recommend this trip with Dawa and Team Himalaya.
We were planning to trek in Nepal for the first time. Choosing a company took us time. Through our friend, we found out about Team Himalaya and enquired. Raj, the main man, helped us right from the beginning by matching activities within the trip so that they best suited our style and expectations.
We decided on the Annapurna Base trek. The views en route, of the mountains of Annapurna and Dhaulagiri and of sunrise and sunset from Poonhill Base Camp were breathtaking.
We want to thank Team Himalaya and the team for the wonderful experience in Nepal. Small company but has great service, highly recommended
Our family had an excellent trip traveling to Annapurna Base Camp. Raj and Shyam were very easy to work with to plan this custom trip. Our guide and porters were fantastic. They were always happy to answer our questions and teach us about their beautiful country. I will definitely be looking to book with them again next time I visit Nepal!
What a great picturesque trek entering the high, scenic Annapurna Sanctuary and towards the base camp. It was worth a lifetime experience, although too much of steep ups and downs, but the views and local culture of Gurung made the difference. The itinerary set by Team Himalaya was just perfect for enjoying a marvelous time all along the walks. The guide and porters were fantastic and very cheerful full of smiles made the whole trek enjoyable. I wished had more time to enjoy the walk, certainly coming back to Nepal and joining Team Himalaya for another exciting trip around the Himalayas. The guide was very good and very informative, which made the trek enjoyable.
What a great experience being in the heart of massif and towering Annapurna Himalayas encircled by giant peaks. A great memorable trek to experience in Nepal, the best scenic walk capturing wonderful sceneries. I was surprised the trek ended so quickly while enjoying the dramatic views on daily walks.
Certainly a recommendable adventure among all the base camp treks around the Himalayas, without much worries of getting altitude sickness. Although the trek lead to steep ups and downhill and is very tiring some days. But the great views made all the difference on daily walks, an enjoyable and most exciting trek that I ever experienced.
Thanks to the good service of Team Himalayas and its best expert guide, and staff.
Enjoy the popular trekking and tour packages in Nepal Himalayas. 2024.

Annapurna Base Camp trek is one of the most popular and trekked routes in Nepal. Second, only to the Everest region in terms of popularity, the ABC Trek which in the Annapurna region is the most diverse and versatile region in Nepal as it houses the wettest, driest, and windiest places in the country. The trekking trail passes through beautiful and culturally rich Nepalese hamlets as we trek through cascading waterfalls, terraced farms, mystical rhododendron forests, and lush grasslands to reach the base of the regal Annapurna Massif. Located in northwestern Nepal, the 55-kilometer-long Annapurna Massif consists of one peak above an elevation of 8,000m, 13 peaks above 7,000m elevation, and over 16 peaks above 6,000m elevation. The Annapurna Base Camp trekking and Pun Hill trekking offer ample time to rejoice in the close company of the mountains.
The trek will be an extremely gratifying one as we will be able to witness majestic peaks like Annapurna 1, 2, and 3, Gangapurna, Himchuli, and Machhapuchhre amongst equally alluring satellite peaks. The trek is also often described as the best of both worlds because alongside the Himalayan beauty and experience it offers to trekkers, it also opens the doors to the rich civilizations of the Gurungs and the Puns residing in the sub-alpine regions of western Nepal. As we pass through the diverse vegetation, elevations, and civilization, the Annapurna Base Camp trek and Pun Hill trekking offer the journey to explore the unexploited nature and culture waiting for you in Nepal.
The Annapurna Base Camp trek and poon Hill trekking begin with a scenic 6-hour-long bus ride from Kathmandu to the Lake City, Pokhara. A tourist marvel in itself, Pokhara is also the gateway to most of the trekking regions of Western Nepal. From Pokhara, we will commence our trekking towards Ghorepani and Poon Hill – famous villages and viewpoints of the trail within the Annapurna Conservation Area. After savoring the splendid views of the western mountains and indulging in the rich traditions of the natives with a visit to the local museum, we will continue our trek northwards. After proper acclimatization, we will trek towards the sub-alpine, arid landscape with the views of Mt. Annapurna and Mt. Machhapuchhre looming in the backdrop.
After exiting Ghorepani and Poon Hill trekking, we will trek through the magical forests of rhododendron, birch, fir, and pine to trek towards our main destination – Annapurna Base Camp trekking. In the jungles, we might have a sighting of Musk deer, Pheasants, and Himalayan Thar.
We will trek through Chomrong, Dovan, and Machhapuchhre Base Camp to finally reach the base of Mt. Annapurna. From here, we can have 360-degree views of the soaring silver peaks, and colossal Annapurna and Gangapurna glaciers which originate from the massif. Since the Annapurna Base camp trek route goes clockwise, we will not be returning from the same route. We will trek down to Jhinu Danda from Bamboo, where we can take a bath in hot springs. From there, we will trek down to Pokhara through Potana and Kande. The trek is of moderate difficulty even though it comprises higher elevations. Anyone in good physical health and previous trekking experience is a good candidate for the trek.

Early morning today we will leave for Pokhara from Kathmandu. This drive will take you about 6 hours to reach Pokhara. As you go down one of Nepal's main highways, you'll find this journey to be pretty intriguing. Following the Trisuli River through the highway, it turns west and offers views of Ganesh and Langtang Himal. You will also be able to notice the peaks of the Manaslu and Annapurna ranges as the trail approaches Pokhara. After arriving in Pokhara, you'll discover that this location is a tourist's paradise. Many beautiful locations with mountains and lakes are on hand for you to explore in the evening before spending the night at a hotel in Phewa Lake.
A two-hour drive away from Pokhara in the west direction, Nayapul will welcome you with fabulous views of the Annapurna Himalaya range with stunning Mt.Machhapuchhre. Then you will begin the trek following the Modi River for a short distance to a nice village at Birethanti which is a tiny village in the Modi Khola valley. After traversing a few suspension bridges and ascending a decent number of steps we will arrive at the Tikkhedhunga. Altogether it will take you around four hours to complete. Overnight at the lodge in Tikhedhunga.
Today after having breakfast, the trek will start with a climb on long stone steps to the Traditional Gurung village of Ulleri. This village's majority of homes have stone slate roofs and views of Mount Annapurna South, Hiunchuli, and Machhapuchare. Further, the trail will go through a lovely forest path that consists of thick rhododendrons, pines, and oaks trees. Finally, the path will follow the steep uphill and gradual section which will ultimately take you to scenic Ghorepani with the majestic views of Dhaulagiri, Tukuche, Nilgiri, Annapurna South, and Annapurna Fang.

You can also decide to remain here if you are concerned and doubtful about altitude sickness. Otherwise, you shall go to the ABC by passing a handful of houses near a moraine without roofs. Be ready since this region is frequently windy and snowy, but the view of the south face of Annapurna is well worth it. Finally, you will arrive at the ABC after approximately six hours of walking, where you will be encircled by a view of the snow-capped Himalayas. You can see Machhapuchhre, Annapurna South, Annapurna I, Hiunchuli, and other peaks clearly from the base camp. After you reach here, there is nothing you should be worrying about.

Even if we've parted ways with you now, we hope that we'll get to cross paths again later.
Provide a pulse oximeter for the blood oxygen saturation level monitor at high altitudes.
Yes, you can refill your water bottle with boiled or purified water in the teahouses. It is better not to drink the water from the tap or the small streams as it might have negative effects on your health. So, to prevent that you should carry some purifying tablets with you.
The trek is moderate as there will be no climbing with ropes and all. Most of the trails such as Mardi Himal Trek and Annapurna Base Camp Trek involve long paths that might need you to go up and downs. So, it might be difficult for some people with back and ankle problems. But, with proper guidance and enough break times, almost anyone can complete the trek.
The Poonhill trek’s elevation is 3,190 m while the elevation of Thorong-la pass is 5,416 m. Generally, people get the symptoms of altitude sickness once they pass the 3000m elevation. So, to avoid uncertain circumstances it is better to get a health checkup and get a doctor consultation before doing the Annapurna Region Trekking.
Yes, we have had many clients who have completed the ABC trek with their children. Our guides will make sure you and your children are well taken care of during the whole trekking adventure.
You might have heard of the typical term “Dal Bhat”, which is both fulfilling and healthy as well. Most of the foods you get are grown by local farmers. You might not have a lot of items on the Menus in the upper regions. You will get food items such as pasta, pancakes, bread, eggs, coffee, hot lemon, etc.
Traveling alone can sometimes be the best thing you can do for yourself. But, with our guide, you will be well taken care of during the trek. Our company keeps the safety of women travelers as the top priority.
It is not necessary to spend your night in tents as there are several tea houses along the trek. So, we will not be using tents during the trek unless you want to have that kind of experience. If you have then you should probably let us know beforehand.
Well, it depends pretty much on what trek you choose. Some treks involve a lot of difficult paths and routes so, it will be hard for you to carry heavy bags on your own. Hiring a porter can be beneficial as you can fully enjoy the trek without having a backache.
The mobile phone signal has reached most of the Annapurna Region. So, in case you miss someone from your home you can quickly check upon them. There are also many phone services like charging and recharge cards in almost every part of the Annapurna Region if you need them.
Unfortunately, there aren’t such facilities for ATMs. So, you need to use the service before and after the trekking at Pokhara.
Firstly, our guides will sort out the things for you. However, if there is an emergency then the evacuation through helicopter can be done. For this reason, travel insurance is really important for you as it will help to cover the fees for the helicopter rescue.
You can easily get gears at Kathmandu. You can also rent the required gears easily so; you should not be worried much about forgetting the gears.
The guides you will be getting are all Nepalese. Each of our guides is experienced, knowledgeable, flexible, and licensed. They are all highly experienced professionals and know how to care for our valuable guests.
You will be resting in tea houses and lodges. These hotels and lodges are small but comfortable. You will get pillows, sheets, and mattresses but in case you need spare blankets, you can ask for them. Bringing your pillow would be a great idea though. And some of you might not be comfortable to sleep without a hot shower. For that, you can get a hot shower at a certain cost.

I and my wife met with Shyam Sitaula in the 2008 year at our common first trek to Annapurna Base Camp. He was not only our guide, but our hospitality and friendly guardian from early wake–up to late evening. After 8 years of our connection, we can say that he is to become our perfect trekking guide and (it is important) our great friend. During this time we made 3 common trekkings from 10 days to nearly 5 weeks trek ( ABC, EBC with Gokyo, classic Annapurna Circuit – all based on our own plans ). We made with him also another trip to Nepal after trekking. Always all things were excellent organized and all the time we were in safe hands. But the great additional value to our trekking was his friendly care in each moment of trekking and our long afternoon talks. We think that his new trekking business will be perfectly made and our next trekking in 2016 we prepare and make with Shyam Sitaula and his agency.

Namaste!!!! A group of 4 of us joined the Annapurna Base Camp (ABC) trek in April 2014 which gave us a totally different and amazing trekking experience. We started our trek with anxiety and insecurity, worried about not being able to finish the trek or the most scary altitude sickness. Thank God that we have engaged with the team Himalaya who has made our trek so memorable and successful. Ganesh is a very experienced guide who is caring, helpful, friendly, and responsible. He explained all the details that we needed to know before we started the trek, prepared us with the best way to avoid altitude sickness (even ready with medicine if in need), continuous encouragement whenever we were exhausted and felt like giving up, and even there’s one time my hand accidentally touched a plant with thorns and swallowed, he quickly got me some kind of leaves for curing, and it WORKED!
4 of us enjoyed our trek along the way with superb fascinating scenery and nature. 2 of our cute and nice potters who carried our 60kg of luggage were always ahead of us. We can be trekking under the sun, in rain and hail within a day, and what a great experience to make us a stronger person.
I remember when we were approaching the 2nd last stop of ABC (Machhapuchchhre Base Camp), it was snowing so heavily that we couldn’t even see the trek in front. I was dragging my extremely tired and cold body to the next stop while Ganesh was rushing up to take care of me, guided me to the stop then rushed down again to accompany my other friends. He really gave us his best which we appreciated very much!
There’s one time we passed by the avalanche area and heard the sound of it coming. Ganesh with his great trekking experience guided us through safe and sound. While we came down from ABC, the snowy melting trek made it very slippery. Ganesh was the one who used his hands and sticks to “make” stairs in the snowy mountain for my friend who almost fell down the way to trek down safe and steady.. and I know she was so touched!!
There’s another enjoyment when trekking with team Himalaya.. that’s delicious and “eat all your can” meals which we were looking forward to every hour!! We learned the Nepalese song from our guide and potters and played games with them after a day trek!
In short, this trek was superb and we were blessed to have engaged the right company for a very successful trek in life!! Thank you very much!
I just wanted to say that we all had a fantastic time – it was truly an amazing journey and a wonderful experience.
Our guide Dawa was excellent very good, knowledgeable, and funny. Overall, it was an amazing experience I will never forget. Looking forward to trek once more with this team in the future. Can't recommend this experience highly enough.
Trekking to Annapurna Nepal

We had an amazing trip with Team Himalaya! We trekked through different scenery every day, and the views were breathtaking. Waking up to glorious sunrises, seeing beautiful sunsets, and the changing landscape, all combined to make it the best holiday we have ever had. Our guide Dawa was highly experienced and obviously very concerned with making our trek as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. Much appreciated. Everything from food, accommodation, and transportation was arranged very professionally. Would highly recommend this trip with Dawa and Team Himalaya.
Amazing views and a beautiful sunrise!

We were planning to trek in Nepal for the first time. Choosing a company took us time. Through our friend, we found out about Team Himalaya and enquired. Raj, the main man, helped us right from the beginning by matching activities within the trip so that they best suited our style and expectations.
We decided on the Annapurna Base trek. The views en route, of the mountains of Annapurna and Dhaulagiri and of sunrise and sunset from Poonhill Base Camp were breathtaking.
We want to thank Team Himalaya and the team for the wonderful experience in Nepal. Small company but has great service, highly recommended

Our family had an excellent trip traveling to Annapurna Base Camp. Raj and Shyam were very easy to work with to plan this custom trip. Our guide and porters were fantastic. They were always happy to answer our questions and teach us about their beautiful country. I will definitely be looking to book with them again next time I visit Nepal!

What a great picturesque trek entering the high, scenic Annapurna Sanctuary and towards the base camp. It was worth a lifetime experience, although too much of steep ups and downs, but the views and local culture of Gurung made the difference. The itinerary set by Team Himalaya was just perfect for enjoying a marvelous time all along the walks. The guide and porters were fantastic and very cheerful full of smiles made the whole trek enjoyable. I wished had more time to enjoy the walk, certainly coming back to Nepal and joining Team Himalaya for another exciting trip around the Himalayas. The guide was very good and very informative, which made the trek enjoyable.

What a great experience being in the heart of massif and towering Annapurna Himalayas encircled by giant peaks. A great memorable trek to experience in Nepal, the best scenic walk capturing wonderful sceneries. I was surprised the trek ended so quickly while enjoying the dramatic views on daily walks.
Certainly a recommendable adventure among all the base camp treks around the Himalayas, without much worries of getting altitude sickness. Although the trek lead to steep ups and downhill and is very tiring some days. But the great views made all the difference on daily walks, an enjoyable and most exciting trek that I ever experienced.
Thanks to the good service of Team Himalayas and its best expert guide, and staff.
