Day 2 Guided Sightseeing in Kathmandu Valley We will come to the hotel to pick you up by private transportation and take you to the following historical places that come under the UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
Boudhanath Stupa
When it comes to visiting one of the oldest Buddhist Stupas in the world, then there is nothing better than Boudhanath Stupa because the oldest thing always has something that is too valuable to be mentioned just by doing sightseeing.
Pashupatinath
This is the oldest temple and the most important temple of Lord Shiva, according to the Hindus. You can look at this temple as the head of Lord Shiva. When the head is in Nepal, all the Hindus of the world come to Nepal to visit this temple.
Kathmandu Durbar Square
This is the oldest famous palace in Nepal. The Shah and the Malla kings ruled Nepal from here, and the courtyard is big.
Day 3 Drive from Kathmandu to Pokhara (900m) When it comes to private transportation, we don’t think it is good to reserve a car because you are single, and even if there is a large group of 10 people, the bus is a better choice. The bus you are going to use is a tourist bus, on the way; you will see the villages and small towns that tell you what the rural life of Nepal is all about. It is a better way to know this, just by sitting on the seat of a bus, and what you will know in addition is you will see some of the greatest rivers of Nepal like the Trishuli and Marshyangdi, which are very much famous for rafting in Nepal. Observing all this, you will reach Pokhara, the city of lakes, and you will be spending your night by one of the lakes.
Day 4 Drive from Pokhara to Nayapul and trek to Tikhedhunga (1480m) A drive to Nayapul comes under the category of what you can call an off-road drive, and this is another opportunity for you to know about the rural life in Nepal. Once in a life, a bumpy road has its own fun, and you cannot ignore this, at least at this moment of time. It is also a time for you to enjoy prosperity because a fertile land is everything in Nepal; it means a good abundance of crops. You walk along the river, uphill, and in the forest to reach Tirkhedunga.
Day 5 Tikhedhunga - Ghorepani (2860m) It is all about walking uphill, seeing the view of the mountains of the Annapurna Region like Annapurnas, Machhapuchhare, and Hiunchuli. The trail takes you to the forest of rhododendron, and therein, you will see the springs and rivers, and one of the popular peaks, you will climb is Nangethani. You have to walk more from there to reach Ghorepani, from where you can see the mind-blowing view of Dhaulagiri I, II, III, IV, V, Tukuche, Dhampus, Nilgiri, Annapurna South, and Barah Sikhar.
Day 6 Ghorepani – visit Poon Hill (3193m) - Tadapani (2630 m) Today is your day because you are going to meet your expectations, the expectation to see the mountains on the way you have desired and wanted to see right from your homeland. You can say in your mind that Nepal is renowned for this in the world, and this is the mountain that has impressed your body and soul. Mountains appear in front of your eyes generously, and you are in awe, and you keep on looking at them from west to east or from east to west, and you will really be in a mood to take their photos, not once but twice.
Day 7 Tadapani - Chhomrong (2170m) Look at the height; you will be descending; since you are in the Annapurna Region, you know the region is home to the Gurung and Magar people, and Chomrong is one of the villages of Gurung people. You can think in advance you are going to cross a suspension bridge because you already know such a type of bridge is common during trekking. Another common thing at such an altitude is a rhododendron forest. Chomrong is a village, but you can also say it is also a viewpoint, and you get this sense when you see a mind-blowing view of Annapurna South, Hiunchuli, and Machapuchare.
Day 8 Chhomrong - Dobhan (2600m) From yesterday’s downhill, today, it is an uphill climb lot of remembrance, the remembrance of the hospitality of the Gurung people. But how much uphill is an uphill, we will tell you at the end? These people are one of the ethnic people of Nepal, and you will see these people in both British and Indian armies. Again, there is a suspension bridge, there are also stone steps, and you will walk along the Chhomrong River. The prominent villages you will reach are Sinuwa and Kuldahar. On the way is the Annapurna Conservation Area Project (ACAP) which is a checkpoint. From there, it is not an uphill climb but downhill to Dobhan.
Day 9 Dobhan - Machhapuchhre Base Camp (3700m) Since you are heading to the base camp, you know there will be less vegetation because the region is covered with snow. The trekking trail changes its form and becomes narrow; this is common, especially when you are nearing the base of the mountain. Climbing at such an altitude, where the mountain lies in a stone thrown distance, and where the place is too remote and beautiful, something indescribable thing will inspire you from inside. Machhapuchhre or Fishtail has been an unclimbed mountain for a long time, but its moraines and glaciers are more than worthy to see.
Day 10 Machapuchare Base Camp - Annapurna Base Camp (4130m) From one base camp to another, and it is a time for you to think only about uphill climbing and nothing else, you are a true trekker here, and when you have to define trekking, you must include this point in your definition and to create an impression that you are the person, who have tasted the beauty of the snow-covered mountains not only by touching but also feeling the coldness. To your eyes, Annapurna Base Camp will be more than a base camp because it is a collection of mountains, whose top, middle, and end parts attract you so much that you keep on gazing at them for a long time, without speaking a word, or you wonder what best words to use to describe their features, hidden most of the time, from the eyes of the city dwellers like you and me. This is a complete realization of God Made Beauty.
Day 11 Annapurna Base Camp - Bamboo (2310m) As you know from the base camp, it is all the way downhill to Bamboo, the name of the village, and it is surrounded by the mountains, and what could be a better treat than this to you, after saying a final goodbye to Annapurna Base Camp? Once again, you will be near the Modi Khola, a river, and many trekking agencies mention it in their itineraries because this river seems to have some sort of unknown significance until you know its unparallel beauty. Keep on following a downhill trekking trail until it takes you to Bamboo and stops in one of the lodges or restaurants where you feel relaxed.
Day 12 Bamboo - Jhinu Danda (1780m) visit to the hot springs Again, it is downhill, and this downhill takes you to the prominent villages as Chomrong and Khudighar. The rhododendron plant awaits you because it is a part of the Mountainous Region, and it is a seasonal plant, and it blooms pink at the right time. As you are on a trekking trail, you will know the life of the rural people of the Hilly People in Nepal. Since your body is tired, you can walk more downhill from Khinu Danda to dip into a hot spring to erase the tiredness from your body.
Day 13 Jhinu Danda – Pothana (1890m) Again, it is downhill but a little bit uphill, and in some parts, the trekking trail is flat. This makes a thing easy for you. The main villages you will reach are Landruk and Himal Panj. The latter is a village dominated by three castes of people as the Gurung, Brahmin, and Magar. Although you are at 1000 m plus, you can still see the best of the view, including tall waterfalls, and the best thing is you are in the middle of the forest before you finally reach Pothana.
Day 14 Pothana – Pokhara via Dhampus (1650m) The best thing about Annapurna Base Camp Trek is you keep on getting more and more even on the last day of the itinerary as Hiunchuli, Annapurna South, Annapurna II, III, IV, and Machhapuchre, including scenery of foothills, ridgeline vistas, greenery, and dense forest.
Day 15 Drive from Pokhara to Kathmandu As you drive to Kathmandu on a bus, you will know the insights of Nepal, especially its rural life. There are small towns on the way, and you will also pass through small villages. The road or the highway goes by the river, Trishuli, one of the best rivers in Nepal for rafting. There are also many resorts on the way, and this river is the best for beach tourism. If you like, then you can enjoy rafting there, and the best thing is it always comes within your budget. The highway had been carved from the hills and the valleys, and there are green plants everywhere, a sign of fertility and prosperity. You will also see the terraced fields of rice.
