Annapurna Base Camp Short Trek

After arriving at Tribhuvan International Airport, a representative from Himalayan trekkers will pick you up and take you to your respective hotel. You may take rest for the afternoon or visit our office if you have any queries or concerns. We can also assist you in your last-minute shopping and trek preparation.

In the evening, you will be welcomed into the realm of authentic Nepalese cuisine prepared by our best chefs.

Taking an early flight to Pokhara, one of the most beautiful places in Nepal, you will have a drive to Kimche for 3 Hours and then, start a short hike to Ghandrulk. a lovely village mostly inhabited by the welcoming Gurung Community. If time permits, you can roam around the beautiful village.

You will start your journey, by ascending towards Kimrungdanda while enjoying the pleasant view of Annapurna South, Hiunchuli, Fishtail (Machhapuchhre) and Ganggapurna. You will descend to the Kimrong Khola again taking another steep ascent to Chere Danda. Then your final destination for the day, Chhomrong, will just be a gentle walk. Chhomrong is also known for its friendly environment and for its beauty lying at the lap of the Mt. Annapurna.

Stepping down, 2500 stone steps, you will cross the bridge above Chhomrong Khola. You will trek uphill to Sinuwa and pass through a beautiful forest to Kuldihar and reach our destination, Bamboo village, for the day with the easy downhill walk.

You will start your day by passing through the damp and cold Bamboo forest then ascend steadily with a few steep segments. Reaching the Himalaya Hotel is the clue. You will move closer to the border of the forest. When the sun rays pierce through the dense forest, you can get the astounding view of the glacial river below. A steep climb through a drier forest will set you on the path to Hinku Cave. Then, a short descend and steep ascend will bring you closer to your destination for the day, Deurali. It is a place of scenic beauty which gives us the magical view of the valley, the river below and the cliffs above with bands of thin waterfalls.

Climbing gently through a river bed then, over a steep trail on the mountainside will get you to Bagar. Eventually, one of the most strenuous hikes will challenge you. You will trek towards Machhapuchhre Base Camp. After arriving at Machhapuchhre Base Camp, you will get the majestic view of Mt. Machhapuchhre alongside Mt. Hiunchuli, Annapurna South, Annapurna I, Annapurna III, Gandharvachuli, and Gangapurna. It is considered to be one of the most rewarding experiences of the walk. The forest and vegetation slowly disappear as you trek towards ABC, and the path widens as you enter the Annapurna sanctuary. Upon reaching the Base Camp, you will get the dynamic view of different peaks and a heavenly feeling during the sunset.

From ABC, you will retrace your steps back to Bamboo. As the trek will mostly be downhill, you will have more energy to appreciate the landscapes. You will spend the night in Bamboo village.

Walking an uphill trail towards Kuldighar followed by a downhill walk to Chhomrong Khola, you come across the stone steps to Chhomrong. The trail then descends to Jhinu Danda, where you will be resting for the night. Tonight, you will have a unique opportunity to enjoy the hot springs by walking 15-20 minutes downhill from Jhinu Danda to soothe your aching muscles.

During the final day of the trek, you will get to enjoy the greenery and amazing hill landscape of Western Nepal. Your trek will end at Naya Pul when you board the vehicle back to Pokhara.

After an afternoon flight to Kathmandu, you will have time to rest for the day or visit a few places such as Thamel; which is particularly famous among international tourists. You will have a farewell dinner for the accomplishments you have made in the past 10 days.

Today, your journey of the Annapurna Base Camp short trek comes to an end. A representative will drop you off at the airport approximately 3 hours before the scheduled flight.
