    Diffculties and Safety

    Trekking to Annapurna Base Camp is not an easy thing with lots of uphill and downhill. Average fitness is required not to be in the pain make sure you have enough walking experience to enjoy the trek. Most of the days include 4-7 hours walking. Altitude can be the problem too so  drinking lots of fluids and going slowly is important to avoid altitude sickness. Your safety is of our major concern. Your Trekking guide has the authority to amend or cancel any part of the itinerary if it is deemed necessary due to safety concerns.  Since this adventure entails travelling in remote mountainous regions, we cannot guarantee that we will not deviate from it. The Guide will try to ensure that the trip runs according to plan, but please be prepared to be flexible if required.

    October to November is the start of the dry season and is the most popular time to visit Nepal as the monsoon has recently finished, leaving a green and lush countryside, fresh and clean air, and clear views of the Himalayan. From December to February the temperature is very cold but visibility is still good. With fewer tourists on the trails, this can be the preferred time to visit. However, the cold can make high altitude treks more strenuous than normal. Some treks will be closed due to snow. March to May is the second most popular time to visit. The weather is warmer and the visibility is still good, though not as crystal clear as between October to November. Nepal's flowers, however, come alive at this time of year.

    My first ever trip to Annapurna base camp was with Mountain World Treks last February. And we're lucky enough to have Saligram as our guide. Very experienced, knowledgeable and good decision making. He's very attentive to the group needs(food, water, meds), knows our pace, always entertaining along the way (we had lots of good laugh), and the best of all, took great photos. Even if you don't take much photos, i bet Sali would have at least 1 great photo of you. As for the treks, you really have to be there to know what it's like. All i can say is it's worth it. So if you want to experience the Himalayas and have a great time, go with Mountain World Treks. They'll take care of you from the moment you arrived at the airport until you went back to the airport. I'm sure this is not the last time i'm joining them. Gotta try Annapurna Circuit Trek after this.[ Back ]
