Worrying About How Long The Adventure Annapurna Base Camp Trek Is?
Rest assured, this 14-day Adventure Annapurna trek is an adventurous journey to see some of the world’s most enormous mountains, enrich yourself with culture, and trek through the beautiful Annapurna region.
Visit different ordinary places such as the Himalaya Hotel, Ghorepani with Poon Hill, Jhinu Danda ( natural hot spring), and Annapurna Base Camp; however, the helicopter tour is also available for Annapurna Base Camp from Pokhara and Kathmandu.
The Adventure Annapurna Trek is about the journey to Base Camp, but it takes a more adventurous approach! Traversing past ridges and slippery trails and resting near waterfalls makes this trek even more special! Depending on your booking choice, the journey begins with a flight or drive to Pokhara.
For those who went by flight to Pokhara, there are lots to do, and one exciting destination is Fewa Lake—located next to the city! For more options for all activities in Pokhara, please contact Boundless Adventure company while booking the Adventure Annapurna trek.
From Pokhara, a vehicle takes you to Nayapul, and Trek to Tikhedunga is an excellent way to get used to the landscape, and it’s not long before you see those fables like rice field terraces and gentle streams resting on green hills. From Tikhedunga, it goes up to Ghorepani overnight during the Annapurna adventure trek.
A hike to Poon Hill to see the stunning sunrise over the Annapurna and Mount Dhaulagiri Himalayas Range is the perfect start to a good day. Heading down and up to Tadapani and even Chile is an excellent adventure. Crossing streams by wooden bridges, seeing natural waterfalls, and hearing nature is perfect for keeping yourself going to Chhomrong.

Quick InquiryAn interesting place is the Himalayan Hotel, where our route passes. From here, great views of the Annapurna Himalayas can be seen! The next day, the Annapurna Base Camp Trek altitude will reach a big highlight! As we head to Base Camp at the height of 4130 meters, the green trail disappears, and we handle more rocky turf.
Depending on the season that you do the Adventure Annapurna Trek, the snow-covered landscape can give a truly magical feeling! After leaving Base Camp behind, the trail becomes more adventurous as we go downwards.
The scenarios change in this new perspective. Staying in Bamboo Village, secluded deep within a fantastic bamboo forest, and stopping at Jhinu Danda for a quick dip in the hot springs is worth it.
Similarly, the trek is called the Annapurna Sanctuary trekking, which lasts for ten days, as there are only twelve days. However, if you have a short time to explore the Nepal Himalayas, let us know. We have a seven-day itinerary to Annapurna Base Camp.
An Adventure Trek to the Annapurna Base Camp can be challenging for novice trekkers, as some parts are steep and have long climbs. However, due to the lower altitude, a direct chance of Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS) is not likely.
The trails go mostly through jungles and ridges, where excellent views can be seen, but after the rainy season, it’s common to encounter leeches. So, always wear long socks and cover your legs to avoid these critters. Bringing salt might also do wonders to keep them away! During an emergency, our professional Guides are there to assist you in any way.
On the other hand, we do provide paid helicopter service to explore Annapurna. Take the adventure of a lifetime; enjoy culture, exciting trails, and amazing views! Adventure Annapurna Trek is meant for those who want that extra unique adventure.
Extra Time During The Annapurna Adventure Trek
We mention any lunch hours as every participant has their own pace. You may discuss with your guide according to time; we will organize an excellent place for Lunch according to your physical fitness.
