On the 2nd day, our ABC trek begins and you can say that Pokhara is the gateway to the mighty Annapurna region. From Pokhara we will drive to Ghandruk (2012 m) and from there we will trek to Chomrong (2200 m). After breakfast, we will leave Pokhara for Ghandruk which is a small beautiful hamlet in the Annapurna region. It will take around 3 hours drive to reach there.

After breakfast we will start our trek with a downhill trail until we reach a hanging bridge. Beneath the hanging bridge, Chomrong Khola flows with its full glory and after crossing the bridge we enter the dense forest. The forest is covered with rhododendrons, oak, beautiful wild blooming pink flowers, and other alpine trees. From the forest, there is a steep uphill trail to the Sinuwa village. The sound of the gushing river Chomrong Khola adds a touch of drama in today’s trail. Finally, Annapurna III comes in sight as we move gradually towards our Bamboo campsite.

After Dovan, the trail will be a combination of uphill, downhill, and muddy trail. We will reach a wooden bridge to cross a river and there will be a holy shrine built in the way. From here the trail will be through dense alpine forests, bamboo trees, and ferns. Our next point will be at Hinku which is an overhanging cave whose entrance is blocked.

Today is the first important day of our trek as we reach MBC and is one of the shorter days.

As we will ascent after crossing the river, we will find sparsely vegetated slopes and will finally reach Machapuchare Base Camp. From MBC, you will get the best views of Mt. Machapuchare and even Annapurna South. Night stay at MBC in a tea house.

The trail will be rocky with an inclined path and there will be chances of finding snow. Today finally you will get an obstructed view of the entire Annapurna Massif. Trust me, though the trail today will be bit rough and difficult, but the magnificent views will absolutely delight you in every possible way and is absolutely worth all the efforts. We will also ascend through the Annapurna glacier today.

First of all, today marks one of the best sunrises of your lifetime and the memories will remain etched in your heart forever. Wake up before sunrise and capture the first crimson rays of the sun over the Annapurna range. I won’t be wrong if I say that you are actually standing the closest to Annapurna without climbing it. And definitely, this grand Himalayan view should be enjoyed with a hot cup of tea amidst the freezing cold. There will be a complete downhill trail today till we reach upper Dovan. Night stay at Dovan in a homestay.
