"Nepal is there to change you, not for you to change it. Lose yourself in its essence. Make your footprints with care and awareness of the precarious balance around you. Nepal is not only a place on the map, but an experience, a way of life from which we all can learn." Stephen Bezruchka - A Guide to Trekking in Nepal.



Annapurna Base Camp (Sanctuary) - Trekking in Nepal
15 days in Nepal

nepal trekking Trekking to the Annapurna Base Camp is one of the best trekking experience in Nepal. The Annapurna Base Camp is a mountain ringed glacier basin in the heart of the Annapurna Range, surrounded by famous Himalayan peaks such as Hiunchuli (6,441m), Annapurna South (7,219m), Varaha Shikhar (7,847m), Annapurna I (8,091m), Gangapurna (7,485m), Annapurna III (7,855m) and the 'fishtail' spire of Machhapuchhre (6,993m). The only approach follows the Modi Khola valley passing through a variety of environments, from steeply terraced lowland villages of the Gurung people, through forests of bamboo, rhododendron and oak, and finally up to the glaciers and high mountains. This is one of the most beautiful short treks in Nepal that offer scenery from subtropical farmland to snow covered glaciers.
