Trekking to Annapurna base camp can rightfully be considered the 'opener' of Himalayan trekking. The main purpose of the entire trip is the base camp itself, located in the heart of the entire Annapurna mountain range. This trekking is considered as one of the most beautiful trekking in the Himalayas. But apart from the hiking part of the programme we will be able to immerse ourselves in the local life and culture, see how people live in such a mountainous and unusual country. The route is relatively short and comfortable because of accommodation and meals in gest-houses along the route. This trekking is very intense, but the altitude is not so much felt here, because the base camp is located at an altitude of only 4130 metres above sea level, and up to an altitude of 4000 metres the mountain slopes are covered with dense vegetation.
Apart from Kathmandu, travellers can enjoy Pokhara - this is Nepal's resort city with the amazing Phewa Lake, the peace stupa and sunrises on Mount Sarangkot. And at the end of the trekking, participants have possibility to relax in the hot springs of Jinu Danda.

PROGRAM
Ulleri → Ghorepani
One of the highlights of the trek to Annapurna base camp is the amazing nature of the jungle, through which we will be trekking for almost all the days of our trek. The rhododendrons give us the special colours of the Himalayan jungle. These beautiful flowers grow into massive trees here, covering the mountain slopes with different colours. And the fragrance can rightly be called unforgettable.
We reach the village of Ghorepani, as we continue to gain altitude. From here we can already see Dhaulagiri, one of the 14,000-metre peaks. It will be possible to see wild monkeys this day. Trekking about 8 kilometres, going up 900 metres.

Transfer Kathmandu → Pokhara → Ulleri
Today is a long transfer from Kathmandu to the start of trekking. First we will get a comfortable bus that will take us to Pokhara, the second largest city in Nepal. Along the way we will have a unique opportunity to see how Nepalese people live outside the hustle and bustle and dust of Kathmandu.
There are rice terraces, palm trees, mountain serpentines and rushing rivers all awaiting us on the way to Pokhara. We will not stay long in Pokhara, after lunch we will have a transfer from the bus to jeeps, which will take us to the beginning of the trekking route.

Then we descend back into the jungle zone and continue through rhododendron thickets.
Towards evening we will come to the village of Tadapani. We will have a view of another significant peak of Nepal from here- Machhapuchare or Fish Tail - named so for the special shape of the peak massif. It is considered to be sacred in Nepal and it is forbidden to climb there. Nevertheless, it is memorable forever to see a view. Trekking about 10 km.
