Annapurna Base Camp Trek is moderately accessible and easy to navigate. It continues to join the varied landscape, culture, and pure life in addition to the most impressive and closer to the Annapurna, Machhapuchhre, and Hiunchuli views. The ABC Trek is, in some ways, a less-intensive version of the Everest Base Camp Trek, but it can be done in a shorter time.

The Annapurna region is home to various creatures such as Blurred Panthers, Himalayan Tahr, Himalayan Giant Honeybee, Pheasants, and many more. Also, ABC Trek contains numerous spectacular blooms in the spring, including Rhododendron and Orchids. What's more, when you go to the Gurung Museum in Ghandruk, you'll learn about Gurung People.

The ABC depends on your route; you may not go through Ghandruk. The trail is the same from Chomrung onwards. However, you can include or exclude Ghorepani Poon Hill and Ghandruk. Apart from various pinnacles and dawn and nightfall, Poon hill is a vantage point for the prospect of the Annapurna massif. Annapurna Base Camp 7 days trek allows for discovering Ghandruk and the hot spring in a short time frame.

Different features of this trek are the hot springs! Extremely unwinding and recuperating for your hurting muscles. The Annapurna Base Camp trek also goes through MBC (Machhapuchhre Base Camp). Once, visit two base camps in a single excursion!

Upper mustang trek

I did this trek in Upper Mustang with my sisters, and it was an incredible experience. Everything was very well organized, and we truly enjoyed every part of the journey. I also highly recommend kumar as a guide – he was knowledgeable, helpful, and made the trek even more special. A truly unforgettable adventure!

A wonderful experience!

I did the Phoksundo Lake trek with Kumar and it was a superb experience. It is an adventure, so you have to be willing to step out of your comfort zone, but Kumar always adapts to the unexpected and makes the trip as enjoyable as possible! The landscapes are magnificent, you meet lots of people along the way, and you really push your limits! Kumar is an excellent guide attentive, friendly, and his prices are very fair!

Best company best guide

I recently did an annapurna curcit with my brother and his girlfriend. It was an amazing trek with the help of kumar and his team . It was one of the best experience of our life . The annapurna curcit is the best of the treks that people can choose for. I sincerely recommend this company for other travellers.

Impressive tent trekking Dolpo 2023

The 18-day Lower and Upper Dolpo tour was individually tailored to our needs by Kumar. Kumar had put together a great team of guide, cook and mule guide. This team fulfilled all of our wishes at all times during the entire tent trek. Narsang, our guide, is very attentive and careful along the entire route. Kumar is very reliable. He looked after us very well in the preparation and execution of our trek and during our stay in Kathmandu right up to the farewell at the airport. A highly recommended local company when it comes to individually planning a trekking tour. The trip was a great experience. Chris and Hajo

Honest & Friendly

Our non-profit organisation needed a local tour guide to help with our local guide and logistics. After much research, we engaged with Kumar. During our 4 days trip, Kumar demonstrated excellent local knowledge, punctuality, friendliness. During the trip he never tried to sale us anything. And with a charitable and kind heart, he did not even charge us for this ngo trip. thank you so much.

Reliable and responsible

I was very lucky to have Kumar to arrange our 5 day stay in Nepal. From the pick up at the airport to showing up punctually every morning at the hotel lobby, everything was smooth and hassle free. Kumar is a friendly and kind-hearted gentleman who genuinely wants to help visitors to experience the best of Nepal. Will definitely choose Himalayan Exploration for my next trekking.
