Annapurna ABC Trek: Golden Sunrise Over Snow-Capped Peaks

October to November and March to April mark the golden window for trekking to Annapurna Base Camp (ABC) in Nepal—monsoon season has passed, leaving crystal-clear skies and snow-capped peaks within reach. A 7-10-day light trek takes you from subtropical terraced fields all the way up to the 4,130-meter-high snowy mountain theater. Along the way, you'll pass through rhododendron forests, suspension bridges, yak pastures, and Gurung villages, surrounded by 360° icy crowns of 8,000-meter giants like Machapuchare (Fishtail), Annapurna South, and Hiunchuli. Stay overnight in mountain lodges, where you can gaze at the Milky Way before waking up to a golden sunrise over the peaks. With well-established trails, ample supplies, and gradual altitude gain, even beginners can complete this trek with guides and porters, experiencing the awe and gentleness of the "World's Top 10 Most Beautiful Hiking Trails."
