Treks in Nepal
Annapurna Base Camp
Annapurna Base Camp or the Annapurna Sanctuary is one of the most magnificent viewpoints in Nepal, reaching the high mountains in a relatively short time without the extreme altitudes of the Everest region. This trek takes us to Annapurna Base Camp, throne room of the Gods where we are surrounded by the great peaks of the Annapurna range. The south face of Annapurna 1, climbed by Sir Chris Bonnington rears above us and we can trace the route up its sheer face. The trek itself takes us first to Poon Hill for one of the most spectacular sunrise views in Nepal.
We then trek across to the gates of the Annapurna Sanctuary, a narrow valley which we ascend to the through a variety of scenery including terraced farmland, rhododendron and dwarf bamboo forests to the higher alpine pastures. We have time to explore the base camp area before returning to Pokhara.
