Annapurna Base Camp Trek is one of the preferred trekking destinations in Nepal. Many trekkers from all around the world consider the Annapurna Base Camp Trek to be the best epicenter. Annapurna has a higher glacier basin located 40 kilometers north of Pokhara. Over 4,000 meters high, the plateau has an oval form. Additionally, it has stunning mountains with snow-capped peaks all around it. Annapurna Base Camp offers breathtaking views of the Fishtail, Annapurna Massif, Dhaulagiri, Tiricho, Pisan, and Pungda Danda. Only 7 hours of sunlight are available to the Annapurna throughout the summer. A strange blend of depths and heights can be highly memorable.

Since you trek inside the Annapurna Conservation Area, the ABC Trek is also known as the Annapurna Sanctuary Trek. The Gurung and Magar settlements, as well as a variety of plants and animals, may be found in the Annapurna Sanctuary. The sanctuary has a healthy Himalayan environment with drier regions because of its distinctive topography. There are also picturesque Thakali villages in the area, located on the foothills of the Annapurna mountain.

Highlights of Annapurna Base Camp Trek:

- A panoramic view of the Annapurna Mountains and breathtaking landscapes

- Explore the local Gurung and Magar settlements and learn about their lifestyle
