Overview
Combination of natural beauty that starts its excursion from one of the beautiful lake city pokhara takes you to Annapurna base camp. Nepal government is taking road to different village of this Annapurna base camp region, so this trekking is accessible from different routes as entrance point. Annapurna base camp trek Rapid is our short itinerary for ABC trekking. AS you will be trekking to the base camp and your first night will be at the altitude of 2000meters, this trek demands your previous trekking experience. Regardless of short trek to ABC you will witness beautiful mountain and Lush green jungle during your trekking.
This trek is completely different form our Annapurna Base Camp trekking via Ghorepani. As all of us know Poonhill is one of the great hill stations for the view of Annapurna Himalaya Range and Dhaulagiri Himalaya Range at once. Choosing this rapid ABC trek package you will miss the beauty of Two mountain range contrast. Along with mountain you will get chance to explore the villagers and their daily activities if you take longer route to the base camp. So we suggest you this longer trekking package of Annapurna base camp. But some of you already have done Ghorepani Poonhill and if you want to skip the Poonhill section of this trek then this ABC Rapid is good choice. Also some of you might have very short vacation and has great enthusiasm to trek to the base camp, for them its great option as well.
Although you will miss Dhaulagiri mountain range, you will have great view of mountains like Mt Annapurna South, Mt. Fishtail, Mt. Hiuchuli, Mt. Singachuli, Mt. Tharou chuli, Mt. Annapurna III, Mt. Gandawva chuli and many others. Once you enter towards Machhapuchhre base camp from Deurali your imagination will be unexpected. The real beauty of base camp trekking starts already from MBC. Traveling in this region of Nepal Himalaya will help one to be at the base camp in the short time frame. As you will witness different kinds of flora and fauna, your mountain experience will be great with combination of nature and wildlife. To remind you again this trekking needs previous experience of Himalaya trekking.
