According to the ABC Trek: 11 Days Itinerary and Trekking Guide, your journey begins with a thrilling flight to Pokhara from Kathmandu with an outstanding scenario from the sky. The Annapurna trekking route goes through serene villages and green terrace farmlands filled with dense forests and interesting cultural heritages above the treelines to higher elevations around the base camp. As you arrive at Pokhara, you travel for 2.5 hours to reach Khimche and trek to Ghandruk for the night. With some ups and downs, your journey to Chhomrong takes you along the river via dense green forests and suspension bridges. Then you will pass cold and damp bamboo bushes and some steep paths to reach Bamboo, where you enjoy a glorious atmosphere.
The most anticipated part of the Annapurna Base Camp Trek is to stand up at the base of Mt. Annapurna, traversing the Macchapuchhre Base Camp after an incredible trek to Deurali. Afterward, you get back to Bamboo with amusement experiences on the trails. Your gradual descents lead you to Jhino Danda, where you can relish the natural hot springs at the bank of the Modi River. Your final walk is to Naya Pool, and then you drive back to Pokhara and spend a pleasing moment. Finally, you conclude your 11-day guided trek at Kathmandu with a stirring flight from Pokhara.
Therefore, the Annapurna Base Camp trekking is an adventurous trek for a lifetime, which also requires an Annapurna Conservation Area Permit. It is the perfect opportunity to be close to nature and culture. The normal itinerary of easy-going trekking requires reasonable fitness, as you may suffer from altitude sickness at the higher points. You should be well-packed with compulsory equipment and comfortable in basic teahouses as you climb up hills of high altitude. But it is a moderate journey, which can be done with a well-organized itinerary. Nepal Adventure Trip Pvt.
