## About

Experience one of Nepal's most rewarding treks on this 9-day guided journey to Annapurna Base Camp (4,130m / 13,550ft). Starting and ending in Kathmandu, your trek begins from Pokhara, Nepal's lakeside adventure capital, and takes you through terraced hillsides, traditional Gurung villages, and spectacular rhododendron forests into the heart of the Annapurna Sanctuary.

Walk through the beautiful Gurung village of Ghandruk and tackle the famous Chomrong staircase before entering the deep Modi Khola gorge. Pass through bamboo forests and alongside thundering waterfalls as the landscape transforms into stark alpine terrain. On Day 5, reach Annapurna Base Camp, a breathtaking 360-degree amphitheatre surrounded by peaks over 7,000m, including Annapurna I (8,091m) and the sacred Fishtail peak, Machhapuchhre. On the descent, soak your tired muscles in the natural hot springs at Jhinu Danda.

Your journey includes all permits (ACAP and TIMS), an English-speaking Nepal government-certified guide, airport transfers, and accommodation in Pokhara. Small groups of 2-20 ensure a personalised experience. Three tiers (Budget, Standard, Luxury) let you choose your comfort level.
