according to your flight schedule to transfer you to the Nagarkot hotel. On the way you’ll take to visit the ancient Changu Narayan Temple is a UNESCO World Heritage site. It is widely celebrated as Nepal’s oldest Hindu temple; date back 4th century stone and wood art. A short briefing will be done about the trip once you have checked in. Stay overnight at Kathmandu hotel.
After breakfast at the Hotel we begin our drive towards Nepal’s lake city, Pokhara. The drive will take about 6-7 hours where we follow meandering road over the valley. We then drive along the Trishuli River followed by another river, Marsyangdi River after we cross the half way. Crossing many local settlements we reach Pokhara normally in the afternoon. The rest of the day is at leisure after you have checked in. Overnight stay at Hotel in Pokhara
After breakfast in hotel we will drive to Matque village near Jhinu Danda. We will follow the trails of Modi Khola, we will drive to Matque village near Jhinu Danda and we trek upto the gateway of Annapurna Base Camp - Chhomrong. The trekking course is easy and flat until we reach Jhinu Danda (1,780 m). It is a steep uphill climb from Jhinu to Chhomrong, where we will stay overnight. Chhomrong is the largest Gurung village of the district. There are no alternative routes to reach Annapurna Base Camp without going past Chhomrong. Therefore, this village is also known as the gateway to Annapurna Base Camp. Overnight in Chomrong.
Downhill to Chhomrong Khola, fed by the Hiunchuli glaciers, then a difficult climb to Sinuwa followed by an easy, flat trail to Bamboo (2,340m) for lunch before the final uphill stretch — thinly populated country from here on — into Dovan.
A dramatic alpine day through Deurali (3,230m), passing the historic Hinku Cave and exiting the tree line into the wide glacial Modi Khola valley, with close-up views of Machhapuchhre (Fishtail) and Annapurna South.
Sunrise over Fishtail (6,990m) and Annapurna South (7,220m), then a short but intense climb — the difficulty coming mainly from thin air at altitude — into Annapurna Base Camp, a 360° amphitheatre of peaks across the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges.
Sunrise over Annapurna South, Hiunchuli, Annapurna I and Fishtail before breakfast and a long descent back down the valley to Bamboo.
Back through Sinuwa and Chhomrong to Jhinu Danda — with the option to soak in its natural hot springs, where the Modi Khola and Kyumun Khola meet — then a short hike to the road head and a 2–3 hour jeep drive back to Pokhara.
Return along the Prithvi Highway to Kathmandu (a domestic flight is available at extra cost).
A Himanshu Tours representative drops you at the airport around 3 hours before your scheduled flight.
