Your 9-day Annapurna Base Camp Trek begins with an early morning drive from Kathmandu to Pokhara. The scenic journey follows winding mountain roads alongside rivers, green hills, terraced farmland, and traditional villages. After reaching Pokhara, continue by road toward Ghandruk, one of the most beautiful Gurung villages in the Annapurna region. Upon arrival, check into your teahouse and enjoy the peaceful mountain surroundings.

After breakfast, begin your first day of trekking toward Chhomrong. The trail passes through beautiful forests, terraced hillsides, and traditional settlements. You will gradually gain altitude while enjoying views of Annapurna South and Machhapuchhre (Fishtail). After reaching Chhomrong, settle into your teahouse and enjoy the impressive mountain scenery.

Today, descend toward the Chhomrong Khola before climbing through dense rhododendron and bamboo forests. The trail passes through Sinuwa, Bamboo, and other small settlements as you continue deeper into the Annapurna Sanctuary. The surroundings become increasingly rugged and mountainous as you approach Dovan.

Continue your journey through the beautiful Annapurna Sanctuary toward Deurali. The trail climbs steadily through bamboo, rhododendron, and alpine vegetation. Along the way, you will pass through Himalaya and enjoy increasingly dramatic views of the surrounding cliffs and mountains. After reaching Deurali, spend the evening resting and preparing for the next day's journey to Annapurna Base Camp.

Today is the highlight of your Annapurna Base Camp adventure. Start early from Deurali and follow the trail through the narrow mountain valley toward Machhapuchhre Base Camp (MBC). From MBC, continue toward Annapurna Base Camp as the surrounding peaks become increasingly spectacular. After reaching Annapurna Base Camp at 4,130 m, take time to explore the sanctuary and admire the panoramic views of Annapurna I, Annapurna South, Annapurna III, Hiunchuli, Gangapurna, Machhapuchhre, and other Himalayan peaks. Enjoy the unforgettable sunset or evening atmosphere at the base camp before spending the night there.

Wake up early to witness the sunrise illuminating the surrounding Himalayan peaks. After breakfast, begin your descent from Annapurna Base Camp. Retrace the trail through Machhapuchhre Base Camp, Deurali, Himalaya, and Dovan before continuing toward Bamboo. Although today's trail is mostly downhill, the long descent can be demanding on your knees, so take your time and enjoy the changing landscapes as you move from the alpine environment back into the forest.

After breakfast, continue your descent toward Jhinu Danda. The trail passes through lush forests and familiar villages before reaching Jhinu. Once you arrive, you can relax at the teahouse or visit the Jhinu natural hot springs, located a short walk from the village. The hot springs are a perfect place to relax your tired muscles after several days of trekking in the Annapurna region.

Today, your trekking adventure comes to an end. After breakfast, take a local/private vehicle from Jhinu Danda toward Pokhara. The journey takes you through beautiful mountain roads, villages, and green hills. After reaching Pokhara, check into your hotel and enjoy a relaxing afternoon. You can explore Phewa Lake, Lakeside Pokhara, visit local attractions, or simply rest after completing the trek.

After breakfast, drive from Pokhara back to Kathmandu. The scenic journey follows the Prithvi Highway alongside rivers, hills, terraced farmland, and rural settlements. After arriving in Kathmandu, your 9-day Annapurna Base Camp Trek officially comes to an end. If your departure flight is scheduled for later in the day, you can spend some time exploring Kathmandu or shopping for souvenirs before heading to the airport.
