Trekking to Annapurna Base Camp, Adventurers Best Choice

Posted by Sarah Jha on December 12th, 2021

Annapurna Base Camp is one of the most famous visit destinations for extreme adventure seekers. It\'s the base camp of the world\'s tenth highest mountain, Annapurna. As it lies at a  high altitude, trekking to the base camp is challenging. Yet, thousands of tourists visit there to witness Heaven on earth. The cool breeze, the scenes, the mountains are spectacular to watch.  

This amazing destination is in Nepal. And, first, we need to get a Nepalese tourist visa to get into Nepal. After the visa is approved we fly to Nepal. On the very first day, we do shopping near Thamel in Kathmandu, the capital city of Nepal. The next day, we visit UNESCO heritage sites such as Durbar Squares and temples and gumbas like Pashupatinath, Boudhanath, etc. On the third day, we fly to Pokhara, a major tourist city in Nepal. Later in the evening we visit Phewa Lakeside and enjoy our evening with a boat ride. The next day, we drive to  Nayapul and then start our trekking with a walk to Tikhedhunga. Tikheduhunga is about 4 hours away from Nayapul. After we reach Tikhedhunga, we spend a night there at a guesthouse remembering all the fun we had while trekking throughout the day. Then, on the very morning after breakfast, we start our hike to Ghorepani. Ghorepani is a traditional Gurung village that has its customs and traditions. Today, you spend a night chit-chatting with locals about their culture and traditions. Later on the next morning, we head to Poonhill, a popular hill station in Nepal. The hill point is popular for the beautiful sunrise and sunset views in the mountains. After hiking to Poonhill, we then continue our journey to Tadapani and spend a night there in a hotel. 

Further, we hike to Chhomrong, Dovan, Deurali, and finally to Annapurna Base Camp which is at a height of 4230 M . We walk the way from Machhapuchhre Base Camp to ABC. Now, we descend to Bamboo and then Jhinu Danda. In Jhinu Danda, we take a dip into the hot spring to recollect memories we had along the way and provide the body some rest. Later, we trek back to Naypul and catch a bus to Pokhara. This way, the Annapurna Base Camp Trek ends with a bus ride to Pokhara.
