Tour Overview
Annapurna base camp trek is the most popular trek in the Annapurna region. It is quite a short and easy trek than other high altitude treks in Nepal. Annapurna Base Camp trek incorporates diverse landscapes, flora and fauna and local Gurung culture. This trek goes alongside rice field terrain, lush Rhododendron forest, wildlife with beautiful Annapurna ranges and Dhaulagiri ranges. The Annapurna Base Camp trek is known as Annapurna centaury encircled by high Mountain including Annapurna I (8,091 m), Machepuchre (Fishtail), Gangapurna, Himchuli, Annapurna Fang, Annapurna South and many more. There are few different routes to reach Annapurna Base Camp but Global Adventure Trekking offers the best scenic and safe from altitude sickness through Ghorepani Poon Hill. Poon Hill is the vantage viewpoint of Annapurna and others' peak. Poon Hill is the perfect place to see Sunrise and Sunset. Starting from Nayapul is an extra advantage to all trekkers to avoid the altitude sickness because it goes gradually up to Ghorepani and gradually down to Chumrung than again gradually up to Machapuchre Base Camp and Annapurna base camp.
