The Annapurna Base Camp Trek begins from Jhinu Danda, which takes about four-hour scenic jeep drive from Pokhara, offering fabulous views of Annapurna South and Machhapuchhre (Fishtail) along the way. From Jhinu Danda, a steady 3 hours ascent through lush forests and stone steps leads to the beautiful Gurung village, Chhomrong. From here, we officially enter the Annapurna Sanctuary and continue our journey toward Annapurna Base Camp.
The journey to base camp follows a valley nestled between the huge ramparts of Himchuli and Machhapuchhre, eventually emerging into a natural awesome Amphitheater surrounded by a magnificent labyrinth of mountains. Upon reaching at Annapurna Base Camp, you can see the scenic 360-degree panoramic views of Annapurna I, Himchuli, and Fishtail rising almost vertically above and creating a truly mesmerizing experience..
Way back to Kathmandu , we relax at the natural hot springs of Jhinu Danda and spend the night there before concluding the trek with a scenic jeep drive back to Pokhara. The views at Annapurna Base Camp are simply unforgettable—an awe-inspiring reward that makes every step of the journey worth the physical effort.
