Wonderful Annapurna View Trek

The 9 days Annapurna View Trek is perfect for those people who are short on time but still want to experience the amazing Annapurna Conservation Area scenery and the fascinating lifestyles of the Gurung culture & villages. The Annapurna Base Camp Trek (ABC) (4130m) is often referred to as the Annapurna Sanctuary Trek. This trek offers to close up views of colossal mountain ranges and peaks, including Hiunchuli, Machapuchare (Fishtail) and Annapurna South peaks.

The best time of the year to do this trek is in spring when the Rhododendron forests are in full blossom (red, pink & white). However, this trek can be taken at any time of the year. Here are some of the  peaks you will see along the trail to ABC: Mt. Dhaulagiri (8167m), Mt. Annapurna I (8091m), Mt. Manaslu (8163 m), Mt. Annapurna II (7937 m.), Mt. Annapurna III (7555m), Mt. Annapurna IV (7525m), Mt. Annapurna south (7219m), Tharpu Chuli (5663m), Singu Chuli (6501m), Mt. Nilgiri (7041m), Mt. Machapuchare (6998m), Mt. Hiunchuli (6441m), Mt. Lamjung Himal (6986m) and Tukuche Peak (6920m). This region is rich in Tibetan Buddhist influence and is noticeable by the many chortens (Buddhist stone monuments), and prayer flags along the trail. You will come across yaks grazing, trek through bamboo forests and witness the distinctive Tibetan style architecture in the villages of this region.

Your adventure begins at Kathmandu from where you will drive to Pokhara and then to Nayapul (1050m) where we begin our trek with the Modi Khola River below and terraced rice fields above. Our next destination is Chomrong (2170m) and then the Himalaya Lodge at Ghandruk (1940m). The following day we follow the trail to the Himalaya Lodge at Ghandruk where you will have time to explore this mountainous town and learn about their distinctive Buddhist culture and traditions.
