Annapurna Base Camp trek (ABC Trek) includes major peaks of the western portion of the great Annapurna Himal such as Hiunchuli, Annapurna South, Annapurna, Gangapurna, Annapurna 3, and Machhapuchchhre, arranged almost precisely in a circle about 10 miles in diameter with a deep glacier-covered amphitheater at the center. From this glacier basin, known as the Annapurna Sanctuary, the Modi Khola knifes its way south in a narrow gorge fully 12,000 ft. deep. Further south, the gorge opens up into a wide and fertile valley, the domain of the Gurungs.
Overview
Few treks combine so many different landscapes and bring you so close to the base of 7,000 and 8,000-meter peaks in such a short period as the Annapurna Base Camp Trek.
The Annapurna Base Camp trek is one of the most popular treks in the Annapurna region. The trail goes alongside terraced rice paddies, lush rhododendron forests, and high-altitude landscapes with the Annapurna Range in view most of the time.
The Annapurna trekking region is easily accessible with different trailheads starting just an hour or two away from Pokhara.
