Upon your arrival at Tribhuvan International Airport, our representative from Igloo Himalaya Treks will warmly welcome you and transfer you to your hotel. After check-in, you can take some time to rest and recover from your journey. In the evening, you may explore nearby markets or simply relax at the hotel. Our team will also provide a brief introduction about the upcoming Annapurna Base Camp adventure.

After breakfast, you will take a scenic drive from Kathmandu to Pokhara following the Prithvi Highway. The journey offers beautiful views of green hills, rivers, and charming villages along the way. Upon reaching Pokhara, you can relax and enjoy the peaceful lakeside atmosphere.

Your journey begins with a scenic 2–3 hour drive from Pokhara to Jhinu Danda, passing terraced fields, hill villages, and distant views of Annapurna and Machhapuchhre. After reaching Jhinu (1,780m), you may take a relaxing dip in the natural hot springs before starting the walk.

The trek starts by crossing the Modi Khola on a suspension bridge and climbing steadily toward Chhomrong. From here, the trail descends and then rises again through rhododendron and bamboo forests until you reach Sinuwa. You will spend the night in a warm local teahouse surrounded by peaceful forest scenery.

Today’s walk takes you through lush forest as you descend slightly to Bamboo (2,310m). From there, the trail gradually climbs through cool, shaded jungle filled with mossy trees, ferns, and the sound of waterfalls.

You will pass Dovan (2,600m), a quiet settlement with beautiful river and valley views, and continue upward as the forest begins to thin and the mountains appear closer. The final stretch toward Deurali follows the Modi Khola valley with dramatic cliffs on both sides. Deurali sits in a rugged alpine setting and makes an ideal stop before the big climb to ABC.

The trail becomes steeper as you make your way toward Machhapuchhre Base Camp (3,700m), passing through open valley terrain with stunning views of the surrounding peaks. Some sections may have avalanche risk, so you’ll move carefully.

From MBC, it takes about two more hours to reach Annapurna Base Camp. The landscape opens into a vast amphitheater of giants—Annapurna I, Annapurna South, Hiunchuli, Machhapuchhre, and more. Upon arriving at ABC, enjoy the unbelievable 360° mountain panorama before settling into the teahouse for a well-earned rest.

After enjoying a beautiful sunrise over the Annapurna range, you will begin your descent from ABC. The trail drops steadily through MBC, Deurali, and Dovan, passing from alpine terrain back into lush forests. As you lose altitude, the air becomes warmer and the greenery thickens.

By the time you reach Bamboo, you’ll find yourself surrounded by peaceful forests and cozy teahouses—an ideal place to rest after a long downhill day.

The trail takes you uphill to Sinuwa before descending through the village of Chhomrong, offering one last look at Annapurna South and Machhapuchhre. A final steep downhill section leads you to Jhinu Danda, famous for its natural hot springs.

After settling in, you can walk down to the riverside pools for a relaxing soak—perfect for easing tired trekking muscles.

A short walk brings you to the Jeep station, where your jeep journey back to Pokhara begins. The drive passes through beautiful valleys and farming villages along the Modi Khola.

Once in Pokhara, you can unwind at the lakeside, enjoy local cuisine, or treat yourself to a spa after completing your memorable Annapurna Base Camp adventure.

After breakfast, you will begin your return journey to Kathmandu on a comfortable tourist bus. The scenic drive follows winding highways, passing through charming towns, terraced fields, and river valleys. Enjoy the changing landscapes along the way as you make your way back to the capital. Upon arrival in Kathmandu, you will be transferred to your hotel for a relaxing evening
