Trek du camp de base de l'Annapurna - 7 jours de Pokhara à Pokhara

Leaving Ghandruk, we continue on the trail that proceeds with the downward climb to the Kumrung river Valley and ascends abruptly to the Durbin Danda, then heading to Chhomrung. We now mount to the village of Chhomrung (2,210m) which is also the final permanent human outpost in the region. We continue to pursue the trail that descends to the set of stone steps that lead to the Chhomrung Khola and then ascend to Sinuwa (2200m). We stay overnight in Sinuwa,

After breakfast, we move through terraces and the forest that comprises chiefly rhododendron vegetations to Kuldi (2,470m) and finally, we set foot in the Upper Modi Khola Valley. This belt of the trail is narrow that leads to the Bamboo (2,310m). At this elevation, it is usual to spot snow during winter. The Bamboo Village consists of a few lodges that are operational only during the soaring tourist season. We leave for Deurali after Lunch from the Dovan Village. We ascend a gentle climb leading us to Dovan (2,600m). From here, we trek along the Modi Khola through the dense forest embodying bamboo and rhododendron as the primary vegetation. Subsequently, we arrive at Hotel Himalaya (2,920m) and ascend abruptly Hinko Cave (3,170m) from where the trail drops closer to Modi Khola before climbing again upward to Deurali (3,200m). Stay overnight at Guest House in Deurali.

From Deurali, the trail becomes narrow and strenuous to trek on. After 2-3 hours of the tiring trek; we ultimately arrive at Machhapuchhre Base Camp (MBC) (3,700m). As climbing Mt. Machhapuchhre is not permitted due to religious reasons, MBC is not an actual base camp. Stop for hot tea or coffee here and then head onward to Annapurna base Camp (4130m), the ultimate travel destination of our package. ABC is an adorable place that bestows an astonishing outlook of Mt. Annapurna South, Annapurna I, Annapurna III, Gangapurna, Gandharvachuli, and Hiunchuli. Enjoy the mesmerizing sunset views over Mt. Fishtail (6993m). Stay at the guest house.

As the clouds can disrupt the excellent view; early in the morning, we wake up at Annapurna Base Camp with an aspiration to feel the mighty Annapurna in close proximity. ABC is based in the middle of the exquisite snow-capped mountains. From this very spot, you can gaze at widespread terraced fields flaunting euphoric grasslands and splendid farming land. At ABC, you’ll be rewarded for your toil with the awesome vistas of the snow-capped mountain peaks and tempting landscapes. Along with it, you will also observe the southern slant of the Annapurna range established in the lap of the formidable Himalayas; the sight is worth its weight in gold and is unsurpassed by anything else in the world. After capturing these moments in our hearts and of course, in our cameras; we will return back to Bamboo (2,310m).

oday, we leave Bamboo village and we trek to Kuldi (2,470m). Pursuing the trail first; down to Sinuwa, and then to Lower Sinuwa through the forest of rhododendron, we now climb down the stone steps to Chhomrong (2,210m). Withdrawing back from Modi Khola Valley; we eventually trek downwards to Taklung village. From now onwards, we continue on the trail that descends to Jhinu Danda (1,500m). Enjoy the rest of the day with a natural hot spring.

From Jhinu Danda, we set off back to Pokhara in a private vehicle. Once in Pokhara, you can visit various landmark sites of the Lake City such as Davis Falls, Phewa Tal, Begnas Tal, Rupa Tal, World Peace Pagoda, and much more at your cost. Also, you can enjoy an evening walk or cycle around the alluring Lakeside region which is a tourist hotspot. A full Nepali cuisine as the dinner will be the perfect way to celebrate your successful completion of the expedition.
