The Annapurna Base Camp (Sanctuary) trek has been sacred to the local inhabitants and treasured as a spiritual refuge, long before the first trekkers appeared. Annapurna Base Camp is a natural amphitheater ringed by Annapurna South and Annapurna I, Varahashikhar, Gangapurna and the holy mountain Macchapucchre (Fish Tail).
The first few days are spent traveling through quaint villages and lush forests before reaching more barren and rugged terain.
The trail to Annapurna Base Camp threads up the valley into the sanctuary where it gradually gives way to a grey scree and scrub before reaching snow fields, there are no villages to speak of for five days. Annapurna Base Camp trek is a wonderful trek with some tremendous views, from base camp a labyrinth of mountains tower almost vertically above with Annapurna I in dominance. An hour or two is spent here taking in the high mountains before commencing the return journey. Five further days are taken returning to Pokhara. Annapurna Base Camp trek is a good introduction to higher altitude without being too strenuous.
