Short Annapurna Base Camp Trek

Don’t have whole two weeks to do Annapurna Base Camp Trek? We have option – the Short Annapurna Base Camp Trek.

This Short Annapurna Base Camp Trek is for the trekkers who want to trek there in less time. The itinerary follows slightly a different route to the normal Annapurna Base Camp Trek to finish it is less time. While taking a different route, this trip skips Ghorepani Poon Hill route, instead it goes straight to Chhomrong via Dhampus and Tolkha village. A great optional trip to the Himalayan amphitheater, Short Annapurna Base Camp Trek provides you the same magic of trekking through Modi Khola valley up towards the Annapurna Sanctuary.

Do not worry even if you have less time. We will take you to the Annapurna Base Camp and give you an amazing experience of the trekking in the mountains.
