Not ready for Everest Base Camp but want to go an incredible trek in Nepal? Then the Annapurna Base Camp Trek Package is for you!
It generally takes between 6-7 days to trek the Annapurna Base Camp (ABC) and you get to see beautiful mountain views of the Himalayas. The trek is moderately challenging, as you have many days where you go up and down on stairs – so it can be hard on the knees!
I recommend trekking ABC if you want to challenge your limits and see the Himalayas, but not yet ready for a 14-day trek to Everest Base Camp.
This trek package includes 6 days of trekking, 3 days of travel, and 2 days of rest in Kathmandu.
