Annapurna Sanctuary Trek 2025/26-Explore with a Trusted Local Sherpa Company-Expertly Crafted Itinerary & Quality Service
Our Annapurna Sanctuary Trekking combines the stunning viewpoints of Poon Hill (3,210m) and Annapurna Base Camp (4,130m) in one unforgettable journey through Himalayan peaks, diverse landscapes, and rich Gurung culture. Perfect for moderately fit trekkers seeking epic mountain views and cultural immersion.
Our complete itinerary spans 13 nights and 14 days, including arrival and departure days in Nepal. This includes 9 nights in the mountains, 3 nights in Kathmandu, and 1 night in Pokhara—ensuring a well-paced and immersive trekking experience. The best time to do this trek is during spring (March to May) or autumn (September to November), when the weather is ideal and the trails are in excellent condition. For those seeking a quieter experience with stable weather and clear mountain views, we highly recommend trekking in November.
Why Our all-inclusive Annapurna Sanctuary trek offers the best value?
Starting at US$1690 for 4-star hotels and US$1890 for 5-star hotels, our package includes top-rated hotels in Kathmandu and Pokhara, round-trip flights between Kathmandu and Pokhara, the best available mountain lodges (with hot showers and attached bathrooms where possible), all meals, safe drinking water, private transportation, all necessary trek permits, and—most importantly—a highly experienced, friendly, and reliable Sherpa guide and porter for your safety and comfort. For your comfort and daily refreshment, hot showers are included in our package. Out of the 9 nights in the mountains, you will have 4 nights in rooms with attached bathrooms at places like Ulleri, Ghorepani, Chhomrong, and Jhinu Danda. We provide hot showers every day throughout the trek to ensure your comfort.
What are the key factors that make trek package costs vary?
The cost of the Annapurna Sanctuary Trek can vary based on several key factors, including the quality of hotels in the cities, the standard of lodges used during the trek, domestic flights, private transportation, meal plans, availability of safe drinking water, trekking permits, the experience and expertise of your Sherpa guide, and the overall quality of service provided throughout the trip.
Why choose round-trip flights between Kathmandu and Pokhara?
It saves you time—just a 25-minute flight compared to a 7–8 hour drive—while offering stunning Himalayan views from your airplane window.
What sets our Trek itinerary apart from the rest?
Our itinerary includes a full day in Kathmandu before the trek begins, allowing you to recover from a long flight and adjust to the time zone. You'll also have time to explore the city, as a full-day Kathmandu sightseeing tour is included. This day is also useful for preparing for your trek—whether it’s buying any last-minute gear, exchanging money, getting a local SIM card, or simply getting familiar with the environment in Nepal. We begin the trek from Ulleri and Ghorepani, then gradually ascend to Annapurna Base Camp (ABC), giving your body enough time to acclimatize properly and reduce the risk of altitude sickness.
