“What more can this place offer?”



Every scenery at Annapurna base camp trek leaves you in awe. It’s not your everyday trek, but more like a journey to the unknown where every bend of the road has its own charm, its own story.

Your craving for such adventure has brought you to us, so let us welcome you to the Annampura Diaries where you will find the stories of such a trek that dives deep into the soul of adventure.

Stepping Into the Unknown Mystery of Annapurna

A leap into the unknown that’s what the Anampura trek is all about.

Starting from Pokhara’s vibrant and bustling streets, you’re given the impression that it is “nothing special,” but as soon as you step into Nayapul, you find yourself whisked away into a world where everything slows down, and nature engulfs you into your arms.

From here, you abandon the comforts of modern society and enter the realm of mystery and adventure.

From Nayapul to Ghandruk

The beginning of the trek feels like a gentle introduction, winding through the terraced fields and small Gurung villages. But you can already hear the whispers of the mountains. Towards the hillside is a hidden gem, Ghandruk, where the air grows cooler and the clouds part just enough, revealing the peaks that lie ahead. It is here where the real magic begins.
Encounters on the Trail

The true beauty of this trek is that it holds the stories of people from all walks of life. You naturally get drawn to this mysterious path and listen to the stories from residents all along the trail.

Whether you share these stories over a cup of masala tea or make bonds over the shared effort of a steep climb, each and every moment lived during this time will become a part of your trek’s mystique.

These are not simple memories. But rather, every person adds a layer of depth to the adventure, making it more of a human experience.
The First Glimpse of Annapurna

As you ascend through the trek of dense forests and rhododendron groves, it may feel like a dream, but at some point, you finally reach a scenery where your breath is taken away for a moment.

It is exactly here that Annapurna reveals itself.

At first, covered in dense mist, a small shimmer of mountains can be seen. But as the sun rises and the clouds lift, the full glory of Annapurna South stands before you. You are immediately entranced by the majestic and untouchable mountains. It is as if the mountains are teasing you, inviting you deeper and deeper into their realm to reveal their full glory.
