From Pokhara: 4-Day Annapurna Base Camp Trek with Helicopter｜Nepal

Begin with a scenic private drive from Pokhara to Siwai, passing through green hills, river valleys, terraced farmland, and traditional villages. From Siwai, start trekking through subtropical forests and Gurung settlements toward Chhomrong.

Depending on trail conditions and timing, you may have an opportunity to visit the natural hot springs near Jhinu Danda. Continue uphill to Chhomrong, a beautiful Gurung village with panoramic views of Annapurna South, Hiunchuli, and Machapuchare.

After breakfast, descend toward the Chhomrong Khola and cross the suspension bridge before climbing through beautiful rhododendron, bamboo, and oak forests. Pass through Sinuwa, Bamboo, and Himalaya before continuing toward Deurali.

As you gain altitude, the landscape becomes increasingly alpine, with dramatic mountain scenery and cooler temperatures. Arrive at Deurali and relax at the teahouse before the following day's ascent to Annapurna Base Camp.

Continue from Deurali toward Machapuchare Base Camp at approximately 3,700m before entering the spectacular Annapurna Sanctuary. The landscape changes from forest to open alpine terrain as you approach the base camp.

Continue toward Annapurna Base Camp, surrounded by towering Himalayan peaks including Annapurna I, Annapurna South, Hiunchuli, and Machapuchare. Arrive at Annapurna Base Camp (4,130m) and enjoy breathtaking 360-degree mountain views. If conditions are favorable, experience the spectacular sunset over the surrounding peaks.

Wake early to witness the magnificent sunrise over the Annapurna Sanctuary. Watch the first light illuminate the surrounding snow-covered peaks before enjoying breakfast and your final moments at ABC.

Around 10:00–11:00 AM, board the helicopter for a scenic flight back to Pokhara. From above, enjoy spectacular aerial views of the Annapurna range, Modi Khola Valley, forests, villages, and the landscape you trekked through over the previous three days. Land in Pokhara and conclude your unforgettable Annapurna adventure.
