How Will You Reach Annapurna Base Camp Trek?

Our 11-day journey toward the Annapurna base camp begins with a 7-hour drive from Kathmandu to Pokhara. Passing through rolling hills and changing landscapes, we will arrive at Pokhara to rest for the night. On the next day, we continued our journey with a short drive from Pokhara to Tikhedunga, followed by a short trek to Ulleri. From Ulleri begins an adventurous journey that takes us further deep into the Annapurna region. Crossing a few villages and lush forests, we will reach Ghorepani.

From Ghorepani, we will wake up early to hike to Poon Hill, one of the most iconic viewpoints in the Annapurna region. Here, we will witness a mesmerizing sunrise as the golden rays illuminate the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges. After soaking in the stunning views, we will descend back to Ghorepani for breakfast and continue trekking towards Tadapani. The trail winds through lush rhododendron forests, offering glimpses of majestic peaks along the way.

Breathtaking View of Annapurna Sanctuary

The next day, we will trek from Tadapani to Chhomrong, a beautiful village nestled in the lap of the mountains. The trail includes both ascents and descents, passing through charming villages, terraced fields, and bamboo forests. As we approach Chhomrong, we will be greeted with awe-inspiring views of Annapurna South and Machapuchare (Fishtail). At Chhomrong, we will rest and prepare for the exciting journey ahead toward the Annapurna Base Camp.

Best Time for Annapurna Base Camp Trek in Nepal

Although the Annapurna Base Camp trek is open throughout the year, Spring and Autumn are the best times of the year to explore ABC. This season offers the best trekking conditions with stable weather, clear skies, and a mild temperature. As we will be walking every day for several hours, these conditions make the trek easier and more enjoyable.

Breathtaking view of Annapurna Region Himalayas during Khopra Ridge Trek

In spring, the trails turn into a garden with blooming rhododendrons covering them from both sides. Meanwhile, autumn gives a unique flare to the landscape, with golden leaves falling and wildlife making frequent appearances. Since the skies are clear in both seasons, views during this time of the year are also quite mesmerizing. However, the challenges of the uphill and downhill routes still remain, offering a sense of adventure.

Annapurna Base Camp Trek in Summer

Trekking to the Annapurna Base Camp during summer is not much recommended due to unsuitable conditions. In this season, the temperatures are hotter during the day and colder during the night. Similarly, the monsoon that comes along with summer makes the trail un-walkable, turning it into a slippery, muddy path.

Due to heavy rainfall, the risk of landslides is also high. Although with proper preparations, these challenges might not be that big of an issue, the experience is still less enjoyable due to fewer attractive views.

Annapurna Base Camp Trek in Winter

Winter, the season of snowfall, is another unfavorable season for the Annapurna Base Camp trek. This season brings extreme cold in the Annapurna region, making the trek more challenging than usual. Snowfall is at its peak, which can block the trial in multiple sections.

Accommodation at higher altitudes during winter might be another issue as most locals shut down their businesses due to unbearable cold. However, if you want a bit of adventure along with sensational mountain views, winter could still be the perfect time for you to trek to the Annapurna Base Camp.

Why Should You Trek to Annapurna Base Camp?

The Annapurna Base Camp trek is a culturally and naturally rich trek in Nepal. There are several reasons to choose this trek. Here are a few reasons that make the Annapurna Base Camp a popular destination.

Natural Wonders

The one thing that makes the Annapurna Base Camp a stand-out destination is the breathtaking natural beauty that surrounds it. From the beginning to the very end of the trek, you will have views of diverse landscapes, lush forests, rolling hills, and serene rivers. As you climb up higher, stunning views of snow-covered mountains, including Annapurna, Machhapuchhre, and Hiunchuli, start to appear. At the trek’s summit, you will be standing beneath one of the world’s tallest mountains, mesmerized by its gigantic size and the beautiful surroundings that cover it.

PoonHill Viewpoint

Since this trek combines the Annapurna Base Camp trek with the Ghorepani Poonhill trek, you will also have an opportunity to witness one of the best sunrise views in the region. From Poonhill, a popular vantage point, you will have a panoramic view of the far-standing mountains. During the sunrise hour, the view is enhanced by the early light reflecting on these peaks, creating a visually appealing scene. The snow-capped mountains turn golden, providing a unique perspective on the region’s natural beauty.

Panoramic View of Mount Annapurna

It is no secret that the Annapurna Base Camp trek offers a panoramic view of Mount Annapurna. From the summit of this trek, you will have a closer view of the Annapurna massif, including Annapurna I, Annapurna South, and Hiunchuli, among others. The grand size of these peaks, combined with the beautiful surroundings, provides a never-before-seen outlook at the Himalayas.

Machhapuchhre Base Camp

The ABC trek via Ghoreapani also provides an opportunity to step on the Machhapuchhre Base Camp (MBC). Situated just beneath the ABC, this camp lets you take a closer look at the sacred Machhapuchhre peak. Along with the Machhapuchhre, you will also have a beautiful view of Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, Hiunchuli, and several other peaks. Stopping by the MBC during the Annapurna Base Camp trek will only enhance your trekking experience and make it more memorable.

Meals and Accommodation Options While Trekking to ABC

Meals

Meals during the Annapurna Base Camp trek typically consist of both national and international food items. In three different meals of the day, you will have enough food options to satisfy your mouth and stomach. For breakfast, you will have access to foods like oatmeal, french toast, cornflakes, muesli, soup, and porridge, along with a cup of tea or coffee.

The lunch and dinner, on the other hand, are served quite heavily. Foods like Dal Bhat, Sherpa stew, thukpa, macaroni, pasta, momo, pizza, and noodles are the most popular choices for afternoon and evening meals. All these meals are well-balanced to keep you energized throughout the trek.

Accommodations

Accommodations on the Annapurna Circuit trek mostly consist of teahouses and lodges. As the only options available along the route, both of them offer basic facilities that are enough to help you survive your trek. While staying at the teahouses or the lodges, you will have access to a shared room, a communal dining hall, and a shared bathroom.

The beds are mostly clean, but the blankets can be stinky during peak seasons. Seeking additional facilities, like internet, hot shower and charging ports, will cost you a few extra rupees. Despite a few inconveniences, staying in a teahouse or lodge is generally a comfortable experience.

Permits for the Annapurna Base Camp Trek

For the Annapurna Base Camp trek, you will generally need permit: the Annapurna Conservation Area Permit (ACAP). This permit are checked at multiple checkpoints to ensure nobody embarks on the trek without informing the higher authorities.

While all foreigners are required to obtain this permit, Nepalese citizens only have to register their names at the ACAP office in Chhomron before and after the trek. They will not need any additional permits to continue the trek.

Annapurna Conservation Area Permit (ACAP)

As the Annapurna Base Camp trek lies in the Annapurna region, it is essential to have the Annapurna Conservation Area Permit (ACAP) to enter the region. The permit ensures the conservation of the region’s natural and cultural heritage. The funds collected from this permit are used in community development and the improvement of infrastructure in the region. You can collect this permit from the Tourism Board office in Kathmandu or Pokhara.

Annapurna Base Camp Trek Difficulty

The Annapurna Base Camp trek is a moderately difficulty trek in the high Himalayas of the Annapurna region. Although trekkers with basic physical fitness and the right mindset can complete the trek with ease, there are still a few factors that can make the ABC trek challenging. As a high-altitude trek that reaches 4,130m, without proper acclimatization, there is always a risk of altitude sickness.

Similarly, regular hikes of 5-7 hours through steep ascends and descends can make the trek even more difficult. The weather in the Annapurna region is also highly unpredictable. While the guides try their best to ensure your safety, you may encounter rain, snowfall, or cold temperatures in some sections of the trail. Furthermore, accommodation along the ABC trek route puts another big challenge ahead of trekkers.

Despite the wide availability of teahouses, you will be unable to receive high-end facilities due to the remoteness of the trek. You must adjust to a shared room, use a shared bathroom, and adapt to basic amenities. However, taking into consideration the views and a lifetime experience the ABC trek offers, the challenges along the route are well worth it.

How To Prepare For ABC Trek?

Despite its less challenging route, trekking to the Annapurna Base Camp does require basic preparations. As someone planning to embark on this trek, you should work on both your physical and mental health. Start off by building a good level of stamina and strength. For stamina, you can try out cardio exercises like jogging, swimming, sprinting, hiking, and cycling.

Strength can be built with weighted exercises like squats, deadlifts, and bench presses. With a good physique, it will be easy to walk on the uphill and downhill sections that often appear on the route. Similarly, for mental health, you just need to build calmness and a positive mindset. For that, breathing exercises are an ideal choice. They help develop a positive mindset while also allowing you to build resilience.

Practicing mindfulness is also key for your mental health. Doing this regularly 2-3 months prior to your trek will prepare you to face the challenges the trek brings along the route. Continuing the same even after the trek can help improve your overall health in the long term.

Why Combine This Trek With Ghorepani?

The Ghoerpani Poonhill trek and ABC trek are two of the most popular treks in the Annapurna region. With only a few challenges, both these treks offer a memorable journey in the Himalayas. Combining the two can enhance the overall trek experience and provide a new perspective on the Annapurna Base Camp trek.

The Ghorepani Poonhill trek makes the trip more scenic, with stunning sunrise views over the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri. This viewpoint is one of the best spots to watch the enhanced view of the mountains in the early morning light. Apart from the views, merging these will also give you enough time to experience the rich culture and hospitality of the region.

Along the way, you will pass through several villages, meet new people, and explore the unique culture of the Gurung and Magar people. With only a few additional days, this extended version of the trek offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to witness the natural beauty and become part of the local community.
