10 Days Annapurna Base Camp Trek is a an exciting journey that harmoniously incorporates all the features and attributes of Annapurna Conservation Area to offer short trekking experience for travelers who are short on time.
Annapurna Base Camp Trek is one of the most eccentric yet common trekking destination in mid-western Himalaya of Nepal. Annapurna Base Camp lures thousands of trekkers to enjoy its astounding blend of nature and Himalayan culture. The trekking route offers the grand scenery of ice giants like Mt. Annapurna I, II, III, & IV, Mt. Dhaulagiri, Mt. Machhapuchhre and numbers of other peaks.
The magical forest, rocky trail, glacial rivers, cultural villages and beautiful pasture make this one of the best trek in Himalaya. The good thing is; it takes just 10 days to complete the entire trek. Equally popular Everest Base Camp Trek takes at least 14 days and is very expensive compared to Annapurna Base Camp Trek.

The level of difficulty on the Annapurna Base Camp Trek isn’t too bad and the route we follow on itinerary offers plenty of time to rest when needed. You can use hiking poles to help relieve you joints while up and down on mountain.
You will have limited selection of teahouse and hotels on the trail. Though the accommodation is basic, you will feel comfortable and the beds are planned on twin-sharing basis.
Almost every tea house on the trail have access to boiled purified drinking water, bottle of water and hot water. Per liter water costs Rs.50 – 500; it depends where you are. Cold shower is free but we recommend you to take hot water shower as it is extremely cold up there. The price range between Rs.100 – 500 per head.
