Annapurna Base Camp aka ABC is an out of the world beautiful place in Nepal. You cannot reach there with a car, you have to trek several days by foot. Here is an itinerary to the Annapurna Base Camp in Nepal.
Why would you be interested about knowing the Annapurna Base Camp Trek itinerary? Imagine yourself standing at an elevation of 4300 meters from the sea level surrounded by a ring of mountains – all of them over 7000 meters in height sprawled along with colorful prayer flags. You are shivering in the cold, your lungs are gasping for air – but you are not sure if it is because of the thin air in high altitude or for the breathtaking scenery. You feel like entering a different world, a world where peace, tranquility, and nature come together. You forget the tiredness, difficulties, and hardships of walking 6 consecutive days in the wonderful but gruesome mountainous trail right at that moment.
That’s what the Annapurna Base Camp trail (aka ABC trail) will present to you. Annapurna Base Camp Trek also known as ABC Trek or Annapurna Sanctuary Trek is a popular trek in Nepal. Usually, it takes 10 days to complete this beautiful trek. However, I did it in 8 days at a relatively comfortable pace. When I did it, I was 33 years old (and I am a male).
The ABC trek is not only mesmerisingly beautiful, it it also relatively cheap. All you need to do is pack your bag wisely, arrive to Nepal and start the trek keeping this tips in mind.
I want to share my stories along with the photos I took with the rest of the world. The experience was so rich, the piece I wrote was big to accommodate in a single article. So, I wrote in 5 parts. Below is the link to each of them.
I think everyone should do at least one trek in their lifetime. Annapurna Trek is ideal for that.
I have written a step by step guide for the Annapurna Base Camp itinerary. I am providing you with link below.
