Ghandruk to Upper Sinuwa (2345m)

Upper Sinuwa to Deurali (3700m)

Deurali - On the third day, after an overnight stay in Upper Sinuwa, the trail ascends as the air becomes cooler and fresher, leading us towards the Annapurna Sanctuary. The path winds through beautiful spots like Bamboo, Dovan, and the Himalayas. The entire day involves walking through lush bamboo and rhododendron forests along the Eden valley of the Modi River.

These locations are not villages but rather local guest houses. We will gently ascend to the Himalaya Hotel, near Hinko Cave, situated beneath Hiunchuli peak. We will cross a glacier and moraine, then a small bridge to reach Deurali, the last lodge before Machhapuchare Base Camp. From here, the vegetation and tree lines give way to alpine bushes and shrubs as we follow the Modi River upstream to reach Machhapuchare Base Camp. We will stay overnight in Deurali, which has five local guest houses.

The trail gradually ascends to ABC, with a pleasant stop at MBC beneath the towering North Face of Machhapuchare, the Fish Tail peak. The journey continues uphill into the Annapurna Sanctuary and Base Camp, reaching higher areas with stunning views of the Annapurna peaks that encircle the sanctuary, including Annapurna I.

After a short walk, we will arrive at Annapurna Base Camp, a magnificent spot with a few lodges offering tremendous views of the snowcapped peaks surrounding the base camp. The afternoon is free to enjoy the mountain views and glorious glaciers. Annapurna Base Camp is a delightful place to soak in the beauty of the majestic mountains.
