ABC Trek Overview

The 14-day Annapurna Sanctuary Trek, also known as the Annapurna Base Camp (ABC) Trek, is a journey into the heart of one of Nepal’s most spectacular Himalayan landscapes, reaching 4,130 metres (13,549 ft). Surrounded by iconic peaks including Annapurna I, Machhapuchhre (Fishtail), Annapurna South and Hiunchuli, the trek brings together breathtaking nature, rich mountain culture and the warmth of local communities.

At Basanta Adventure, we believe the experience is as important as reaching the destination. Our team uses 25+ years of extensive research and experience to thoughtfully design each journey to offer the right balance of adventure, comfort, personal attention, and authentic local experiences.

Your journey begins in Pokhara, a beautiful city nestled beneath Machhapuchhre and surrounded by lakes and mountain landscapes. A scenic drive through villages and terraced farmland leads to the trailhead. The trail then winds through bamboo, pine, and rhododendron forests, traditional Gurung villages, and diverse mountain landscapes before reaching Machhapuchhre Base Camp and the spectacular Annapurna Sanctuary.

Along the way, we encourage you to experience Nepal beyond the trail. You will enjoy freshly cooked Dal Bhat Tarkari, which translates to rice, lentils, and seasonal curry, Nepal’s beloved everyday meal; meet local families; discover the traditions and hospitality of mountain communities; and visit villages with a proud connection to the world-famous Gurkha soldiers. These simple encounters often become some of the most memorable moments of the journey. 

Our established local team carefully manages the itinerary, logistics, accommodation, safety, and pacing, while giving you time to enjoy the journey at your own rhythm. We promote our values of responsible, respectful, and meaningful travel, creating positive connections with local communities and the natural environment.

Our aim is not simply to take you to Annapurna Base Camp, but to create an immersive, meaningful, and transformational journey of a lifetime.
