The Annapurna region is more popular than the Everest region among the trekkers , one reason of this popularity is the Annapurna base camp trek. This trek is not strenous, the climbing is relatively lower and the duration is short, just ten days, however the rewards are great. Within a short time frame you reach the base camp of the awsome Annapurna mountain and its glaciers. The mountain scenery is simply breathtaking.

The area below the base camp of Annapurna south is called Annapurna sancyuary. Hence this trek is often called Annapurna sanctuary trek . The trek starts at Phedi , near Pokhara and takes you through picturesque Gurung villages of Landrung and Ghandruk.These villages themselves are shorter trekking destinations, so the view along the trails are superb.Walking slowly and passing through terraced farms we reach Machhapuchare base camp on the fifth day.

Next day we pass between Hiunchuli and Machhapuchare to reach  the Annapurna base camp at 3900 m. The  scenery on the Annapurna base camp is simply dramatic to get surrounded by the towering peaks of Annapurna south and other mountains and the glaciers.

We return via Birethanti and catch our vehicle at Nayapul for Pokhara. The average walking hours is 5- 6 hours on moderate trails. This area has well developed lodge facilities, we use these lodges for eating and overnight stay, though we operate fully supported camp treks too
