Annapurna Base Camp Short Trek begins with a scenic flight along the Himalayan panorama to Pokhara. A short drive north leads to Dhampus Phedi for a walk through agricultural farmland and forest to attractive Pothana. Deorali, on a ridge, offers great views back over Pokhara’s Phewa Lake; ahead are dramatic peaks. Attractive Jhinu Danda offers a revitalizing experience in hot springs at the river below the village.

The valley sides become increasingly covered in lush forests of rhododendron, oak and pine through the trekking trails. You will have the opportunity to explore the biodiversity of the Annapurna region, including Himalayan wildlife such as Musk Deer, Rhesus and Langur Monkeys, Leopard, Bear and much more.

Numerous villages perch on ridge tops surrounded by ancient terraced fields. Along steeper sections the trail is well stepped. Above Chhomrong, the pace slows, the path steepens and, towards the entrance to the Sanctuary, forest gives way to alpine scrub as the peaks come into full view.
