Annapurna Base Camp Trek or Annapurna Sanctuary Trek that has a trekking trail of 115 km is best for both solo and group trekkers. It is loaded with all the features of the terrain that you can imagine higher with your mind. It showcases a 360 degree view of mountains from the base camp and puts you in wonder, and what you see is simply unquestionable.
The trekking trail that you follow is exhausting and exciting and takes you to the top of the hill, where there is a village. On the way, you will see the mules, do not be afraid, your guide will tell you how to avoid them.
The rocky ridges that you see, the valley where you walk in, and the stream that you cross have their own beauties. Experience the inexperienced by walking on the slope of the snow-covered hill that has a narrow trekking trail.
After saying goodbye to February, these three months are good for trekking because the days are clear and beautiful. These are also the months of rhododendron, on the other hand, December is good too because the trekking trail is empty, and you can see the unobstructed view of mountains, but the best is October.
