The trek to Annapurna Base Camp, also known as "
Annapurna Sanctuary", is perhaps one of the most beautiful in the world. The combination of easy walking and magic scenery makes it a trekker's must, it goes through bamboo and rhododendron forests, and upstream of the Modi Khola. Crossing the door of the Sanctuary (passing between Mt. Himchuli and Machhapuchhre), a 360-degree mountain panorama unfolds. Sunrise and sunsets here turn into an incredible light show. The reasonably low altitude encourages trekkers to spend an extra day at the Base Camp. The Annapurna Base camp trek can also be combined with climbing trekking peaks between 5500 m and 6500 m.
