Planning Your Next Himalayan Adventure: How Annapurna Base Camp Fits Within Nepal’s Most Iconic Treks

Through man-made trekking routes, trekkers find an access to satisfy their lust for the Himalayas. It is where thousands of trekkers have walked to fulfil their dreams whether the world calls their tastes adventurous or an unproductive money spending activity; trekkers, who know what the Himalayan Adventure is, do not care what others say.
They keep moving. Because the Himalayas are the Himalayas; they are simply irreplaceable. They are too beautiful. And when the Himalayas and its foot hills are too attractive, trekkers want to swallow it by trekking. What they want to grab is the beauty of the trek.

And how this trek has become famous among trekkers, do you want to know? Because it takes you to the base of the world’s tenth highest mountain. Here, we are going to talk about Annapurna I and its extension, the mountain ranges, whose beauty has inspired you to go for the Annapurna Base Camp, precisely speaking, 10 Days ABC Trek. This trek is adventurous and at the same time beautiful and rewarding. And here are the top reasons why it is so.


Explore the World’s tenth highest mountain


From 1956, every part of the Annapurna Conservation Area has been compared to the beauty of the gods. You can therefore imagine feeling as though you are among the gods from start to finish on the 10 Days Annapurna Base Camp Trek. And when the world’s tenth-highest mountain comes into view, along with Hiunchuli (6,441 m), Annapurna South (7,279 m), Fang, Gangapurna (7,485 m), Annapurna III (7,855 m), and Machapuchhare (6,993 m), you will find yourself thinking that you are in heaven.

It was once a home of snake gods, according to the Hindu Religion.
In the same way, the Fishtail Mountain, the unclimbed mountain, is looked upon as the home of Lord Shiva. Although Mount Everest is 8000 m plus peak, the first 8091 m peak was climbed in 1950 by Maurice Herzog, a French nationalist. And the name of that peak is Annapurna I. In this connection, we would like to mention about the first ascent of Mount Everest by Hillary and Tenzing, that is, 1953. Here the exposition of time matters, and it is important to every adventurous trekker to know about it.

Mahta Annapurna is a Hindu goddess of food; she is not only beautiful but also full of abundance and you can see this blessing of hers in the agricultural land of the Annapurna Region. When you reach 4000 m plus, 10 Days ABC trek shows up with mountains in every direction, especially a group of mountains, including the South Face of Annapurna I.


An iconic trek


10 Days Annapurna Base Camp Trek is an iconic trek because it takes you to the villages of the happiest people. Happy means prosperous. You can see the happy people in all the villages, including Jhinu Danda, Chomrong, Bamboo, Deurali, etc. The trekking route passes through a remote place and this is how the trek has embraced the beauties and all the positive sides of the Annapurna Region including the life of the people who love to live in the shadow of the mountains.
Because of this, the trek is becoming popular in the minds of the would-be trekkers. It has already become a cup of tea to Indian trekkers. ABC trek has always been in the bucket list of all kinds of trekkers whether they are young or middle-aged. A trek without a challenge is not a trek; the uphill trekking route of the ABC suitably meets your requirement by taking you to the perfect viewpoint, by taking you to a gorge and by taking you to the valley covered with snow.

There is peace; there is beauty, and there is religion in every part of the Annapurna region. In addition to this, 10 Days Annapurna Base Camp Trek also shows you another side of the canvas, that is, the culture and the traditions of the Gurung and the Magar people. This is how the trek has become the right channel to study their cultures.


10 Days Annapurna Base Camp Trek and the Sanctuary


One of the main highlights of the 10 Days Annapurna Base Camp Trek is the Annapurna Sanctuary which is located at an altitude of 4000 m plus. It is a table land and here you see a ring of mountains which surround you. These mountains spread to the distance of more than 50 KM and are parts of the Annapurna Ranges. Because of these, ABC trek becomes more than classic and beyond your imagination, and later, its trekking route passes through between two mountains: Hiunchuli and Fishtail.
In fact, you will be in one of the sections of the Tibetan Plateau that you have read in a geography book. Although hundreds of trekkers prefer 10 Days Annapurna Base Camp Trek every year, the Annapurna Region is still intact because of the restrictions on the number of trekkers, on deforestation, and on animals grazing, imposed by the Annapurna Conservation Area, the largest conservation area in Nepal.


The welcome decoration


No doubt that Annapurna Base Camp Trek shows up the famous view of mountains from the closest distance that you can ever imagine in your life. One of the world’s most difficult mountain, that is, Annapurna I (8091 m) looks at you silently without talking as you know that mountains always do things by showing, giving you a beautiful thought to wonder. On the other hand, the triangular summit of Annapurna II (7937 m) is so prominent that you cannot stop yourself from talking about it. In the same way, the beautiful ice face of the Gangapurna (7455 m) seduces times without number.
In the midst of these beautiful mountains, you will also see Annapurna III with its rocky and uneven surface. As you eye on the beautiful mountain, as you eye on the challenging mountain, your eyes will also come across Annapurna IV that has been overshadowed by other mountains. You start to move your head from one side to another and think that this must be the delight of Annapurna Base Camp Trek!
