Annapurna Base Camp Trek via Poon Hill Experience

Annapurna Base Camp Trek via Poon Hill for unforgettable memories.

The ABC Trek offers a truly remarkable Himalayan adventure, guiding you through a variety of landscapes, from temperate forests and alpine meadows to highland pastures and barren rocky terrain. Along the trail, discover isolated mountain hamlets, centuries-old temples, and serene monasteries, all set against the backdrop of the majestic Annapurna and Machhapuchhre ranges.

Few treks in Nepal offer such diverse scenery while taking you to the base camp of an 8,000-meter peak in a relatively short period—without pushing you beyond your limits.
