After an early breakfast in Pokhara, we begin our journey with a scenic drive to Samrung via Nayapul and Jhinu Danda.
The off-road drive winds through terraced farmlands, suspension bridges, and traditional villages.
From Samrung, we begin our trek on foot, ascending through lush subtropical forests toward Lower Sinuwa, passing through Chhomrong – a picturesque Gurung village offering stunning views of Annapurna South and Machapuchare.
Arrive in Sinuwa and rest in a teahouse amidst the tranquil forested hills.

Day 2: Sinuwa – Deurali (3,200m / 10,498ft)

Trek: 7 hours | Meals: B/L/D | Overnight: Deurali

Today’s trek leads us deeper into the heart of the Annapurna Sanctuary.
We descend to Bamboo before gradually ascending through dense forests of bamboo, oak, and rhododendron toward Dovan and Himalaya Hotel.
After lunch, the trail narrows and becomes rockier as we approach Deurali, a small settlement perched above the Modi Khola River gorge.
The landscape transforms from lush forest to more rugged alpine terrain, and with luck, we may spot Himalayan langurs or colorful birds along the way.

Begin the day early with a gradual uphill hike through the Avalanche Prone Zone and Bagar area.
As we gain altitude, the vegetation becomes sparse, offering wide-open views of the surrounding peaks.
Upon reaching Machapuchare Base Camp (3,700m), we stop briefly for rest and snacks, then continue our ascent to the legendary Annapurna Base Camp.
Enjoy a rewarding 360° Himalayan panorama at ABC – a surreal amphitheater of towering peaks, including Annapurna I (8,091m), Annapurna South, Hiunchuli, and Glacier Dome.
Witness a magical sunset and spend the night in the base camp under the starry Himalayan sky.

Day 4: Annapurna Base Camp – Lower Sinuwa (2,200m / 7,218ft)

Trek: 8 hours | Meals: B/L/D | Overnight: Sinuwa

Wake up to a majestic sunrise over the Annapurna range.
After breakfast, we retrace our steps, trekking downhill past MBC, Deurali, Himalaya, and Bamboo.
The descent is longer but more relaxed, offering a new perspective of the landscapes we previously ascended.
Reach Lower Sinuwa by late afternoon, where you’ll be rewarded with hearty meals and warm hospitality at a teahouse.

Day 5: Lower Sinuwa – Jhinu Danda Hot Springs – Pokhara

Trek: 4 hours | Drive: 3 hours | Meals: B/L

On our final day, we trek back to Jhinu Danda, a charming village known for its natural hot springs.
Descend steep stone steps through Chhomrong to Jhinu and enjoy a refreshing dip in the riverside hot pools, easing any post-trek fatigue.
After lunch, drive back to Pokhara, passing the rural beauty of the Annapurna foothills.
Arrive in Pokhara by late afternoon – marking the end of an unforgettable Himalayan experience.
