Annapurna base camp trek 7 days

Annapurna base camp hike 7 days begins from Kathmandu. There is a tourist bus that goes to Pokhara on a daily basis but they all leave Kathmandu at the same time in the morning around 7 AM. there are different types of tourist buses some of them are quite luxurious than others. All reach Pokhara at the same time. Tourists can see the stunning view of the countryside during the drive but now the road widening process is going on which may take some more time than usual but it is worth doing the overland drive to Pokhara.

There are other alternatives to the tourist bus of the flight from Kathmandu to Pokhara. The flight takes you to Pokhara in just half-hour and you can see the stunning view of the Himalayas on your flight. Flight to Pokhara from Kathmandu is a convenient as well as a more relaxing option.

Formally the trek starts from today and begins with the drive to Kiumi from Pokhara. Kiumi is the last station that the jeep goes from Pokhara. We take the Jeep from Pokhara to Kiumi which takes around 3 hours time. The jeep rides are very enjoyable with the stunning Himalayan scenery and the green hills. Road to Kiumi is not that good at last but at the start, it is quite ok. There is a tourist check-post at Birethanti where permits are check-in to enter the trekking of the Annapurna base camp. When we arrive at the Kiumi we can see the stunning view of Mt Fishtail, Annapurna south 7219 Meters, Himchuli 6400 Meters and Landruk villages. We start the trek from kiumi which goes to the north following the Modi River Upstream and you will see the longest suspension bridge in the Annapurna Region. Just crossing the bridge you will arrive at the Jhinu Village. Jhinu is a small settlement and a very good place to enjoy the natural hot spring. Hotspring is 15 minutes from the Jhinu on the Bank of the Modi River. From Jhinu the trek goes accent climbing the stairs to Chomrong which takes around 2 hours. Chomrong offers the best view of the Annapurna Himalayan ranges and it is biggest Gurung villages on the Annapurna base camp trails. Here you can see the Gurung cultures, traditions and lifestyles and how they farm. Going down from Chomrong we cross another bridge and climb accent to the Lower Sinuwa. The lower Sinuwa is the destination for today.

It is the second day of the Annapurna base camp trek 7 days (ABC Trek 7 days). The hike starts with breakfast at Lower Sinuwa. We follow the trails and move towards the Upper Sinuwa. The trail goes slowly accent till the Upper Sinuwa. Upper Sinuwa is the place from where you can see the perfect view of Mt Fishtail 6,993 Meters. Now the trail goes through the dense forests filled with rhododendron, oak and bamboo bushes. It takes 3 hours to arrive at the Bamboo village. Bamboo is the settlement with 6/7 tea houses and all of them are hotels. From Bamboo, the trails go ahead following the Modi River Upstream through the forests. The trails now become wetter because of the forests and water sources along the trails. Dovan and Upper Dovan are the two places where you can agave lunch to go to Deurali. There is a small temple before the Himalayas with spectacular waterfalls on the opposite side of the trails. The tress plants become smaller and smaller as you go higher. Waling on the zig-zag climbing you will reach the Hincu Cave. Hincu cave offers the first view of the Deurali as you cross some more bridges you will reach the Deurali. Deurali is just on the bottom of the Himchuli with big rocks on both sides of the valley.

The final day of the accent trek to the Annapurna base camp starts from the Durali at 3200 Meters. This part of the trek is dangerous sometimes especially in winter when there is a lot of snow on the Himchuli. Trekkers have trails just on the bottom of the Himchuli Mountains and if there is a thick level of snow on the mountains then it falls and it had already caused many accidents. Trekkers must be very aware of these parts hiking. There are 3-4 places which are very dangerous. As you move ahead from Deurail the trails follow the stream of the Modi River and as it reaches Bagar the trails are pretty much smooth and flat before reaching the Mchhapurcha base camp again it goes accent. When you arrive at Machhapurche base camp, you will see a glimpse of Mt Fishtail, Gangapurna, Annapurna South, Himchuli and Annapurna frank. Now, the trails are pretty tough as you gain the altitude it follows the bottom of the glacier to reach the Annapurna base camp 4130 Meters.

This is the most spectacular day of the trek because you will see the astonishing view of Mt Annapurna and other mountains in the panoramic ranges. Mountains like Annapurna south, Himchuli, Annapurna Frank, tent peak, Annapurna and Mt Fishtails are the mountains that you would see from the Annapurna base camp. There is a big glacier which comes from the ice of Mt Annapurna and it stretches down to the corner of the Machhapurche Base camp. This is another interesting thing that you can see and listen to as well. The sunrise over the Mt Annapurna range is something that trekkers may not have seen before. After spending quality time on the Annapurna base camp you will descend down to the Bamboo through the same route by following the stream of the Modi River. It takes about a whole day to arrive at Bamboo.

The last day of the trek starts with the accent from the bamboo to the forest between bamboo and Upper Sinuwa. The trails go through the forest till the Upper Sinuwa and from there it descends down to the base of the Chomrong. From Chomrong the trails are accents till the end of the Chomrong villages and from there you will go descents down to the Jhinu. If you want to enjoy the Hot Spring then our guide will take you to the bank of the Modi River where there is a Hot Spring. You can spend some time here then we move to Jhinu and have lunch and in the evening we can move to Kimi from here you can take the Jeep to go to Pokhara. It takes about 3 hours to reach the Pokhara.
