Annapurna base Camp Trekking Highlights
Annapurna base camp (ABC) Trek - an ideal experience for a lifetime adventure awaits you. It is the best known and one of the most travelled trekking destinations in the world. In comparison to other high peak hiking in Nepal, the Annapurna base camp trek is relatively easy. Travelers on this ABC Trek have the opportunity to visit Annapurna Base Camp (4130m) and Machhapuchhre Base Camp (MBC) (3700m), which are both accessible from the same route on the itinerary.

In the vicinity of the Annapurna Sanctuary, there is a wonderful chance to see the mountains real close while standing just underneath them and inhaling the Himalayan air.
The Annapurna is an oval-shaped plateau that is encircled by the Annapurna Mountain. Therefore, the most famous trekking site is the Annapurna Base Camp Trekking, also known as the Sanctuary Trek, which entails a walk to a huge amphitheater surrounded by a wall of snow-capped mountains. The Annapurna Base Camp package also offers visitors the chance to experience exciting trekking trails along the culturally rich Gurung and Magar villages at the foothills of the Annapurna range.
The trail also provides great views of the mountains while traveling through rural communities, waterfalls, scenic landscapes and cliffs with river flows. Elegant temples, monasteries, Gompas and religious monuments that reflect the local heritage of the area can also be discovered. There are various astounding sights throughout the trek routes, such as the sunrise panorama of the snow-capped Himalayas from the Poon Hill and the magnificent view of the glacier stretching from Hiunchuli south to Annapurna I (8097m). One will always cherish the memories of the beautiful and exciting ABC trek journey.

Hello Basu!
Thank you for your kind email, it has made us all miss the wonderful time we enjoyed with you all even more.

Basu thank you again for the great time and kindness you always showed towards us and patience and fun you gave to the boys. Our warmest regards to Bashu, Shambu, Madhav and you! Good luck with your exams and we hope Skyline is enjoying a steady stream of trekkers off on adventure with you all.

I was just in two mind, which trek was relevant for me in Nepal and after getting on with Skyline treks and expedition they clarifies all my uncertainties and helped to choose Annapurna base camp trek with Ghorepani Poon Hill trekking and that was a great opening for me to do twice with one.
“So thanks Skyline treks and expedition for your marvelous support of bestowing and making it up to Poon Hill and Annapurna base camp that was true to my life. I would personally show gratitude to the entire team of the company including my Sherpa guide Sanjaya who was incredibly attentive about me throughout the trek.
If anybody from some corner of the world is seeking for such trek then I suggest Skyline treks and expedition.

Annapurna Base camp Trek

I knew that, trekking is all about walking through the uneven trails, climbing high passes and viewing the world highest silvery mountains within a week long exhausting journey but I had never withstand with it. And March 2018 was my luckiest year and joined with Skyline treks and expedition for Annapurna base camp trek to encounter with the entire dame Nature, run and arranged everything perfectly by Mr. Madhav Pandey, title holder of the trekking company.
As we started and ended the 10 days trek….. All we experienced was pure and utter bliss! A big thumps up to our trek guide Sanjay C who is so knowledgeable, cooperative and passionate about what he did. If he was not with us this ABC trip would not have been same. We highly recommend Skyline treks for those who are planning to do Himalayan trek in Nepal.

Annapurna Base camp trek

“Before anything else, I would like to say that each and every moment of my 10 days Annapurna Base Camp trek was amazingly satiating.
It was awe-inspiring. I would like to mention specially the ABC trek designer (Mr., Madav Pandey) and trek guide (Sanjay C) if I was not connected with Skyline Treks and team, I would not be able to give end to this trek so easily.
I cherished the entire experience of this trek in Nepal Himalayas and surely go with Skyline treks for my future trek.
I will always remember their good deeds in my prayers.
