Day 9

Annapurna Base Camp

This morning, you'll push for a fairly gentle ascent to Annapurna Base Camp. The vegetation disappears on the way to ABC and the path widens as you enter the sanctuary. From here, enjoy sensational views of the near-vertical south face of Annapurna towering above us. The sanctuary boasts a dynamic view with an uninterrupted 360-degree panorama. From the base camp, savor mesmerizing views of the Machhapuchhre, Annapurna South, Annapurna I, Hiunchuli and other peaks. Later, start retracing your steps to Bamboo. The walk is mostly downhill, so it shouldn’t be very difficult. On the way, witness the waterfalls that drop down from a high point to the rocks below and pass through forests with great views of Fishtail and Hiunchuli mountains. The trek up to Annapurna sanctuary takes around two hours, while the trek back down to Bamboo takes around five to six hours.
