My next destination of the year 2023

My next destination-Annapurna base camp

After my last Everest Base Camp trek, I learned that you must follow your desires and appreciate the journey as much as the destination in order to truly feel satisfied. Despite the fact that mountains and remote areas have always interested me so much, I frequently went to famous and upmarket locations, so even when I arrived there, I wasn't pleased.

Today, we tend to follow trends rather than our own desires. If we see someone in a well-known area, we often follow them to have a better view of social media or to please those around us. Therefore, even visiting these locations won't provide much satisfaction.

After the lockdown, I understood that nobody could predict what might happen tomorrow. So, why not set out on my own path rather than following the crowd? So I began traveling to all the locations I had always wanted to see.

My first trip was a solo trek to Everest Base Camp, which was both terrifying and exhilarating. After finishing my adventure, I came to the conclusion that the hardest part was really starting it. The rest of the journey is much simpler once you've completed it. My first trip gave me the courage I needed to face my phobia.

I, therefore, intend to embark on a new journey. My next destination will be the Annapurna Base Camp since, as I've always said, ascending mountains has always been a dream of mine. On the Nepal Trek Adventures website and other websites, I did a lot of research on the trek. I'm excited to try it after reading about it.

Things that I learned about the Annapurna base camp trek are mentioned below.

  • The Annapurna Base Camp Trek is popular with a variety of outdoor enthusiasts, from female solo travelers to hikers traveling to Nepal in groups. It offers views of breathtakingly stunning high peaks.
  • The trek takes about 10 days to complete.
  • On the way to the camp, you'll have the opportunity to witness a number of waterfalls, charming towns of their own sort, terraced farmlands, rhododendron forests, and breathtaking panoramic views of mountains, which will leave you feeling refreshed forever.
  • You will experience the breathtaking sight of mountains like Machhapuchhre, Dhaulagiri, and Annapurna all at once.
  • Chance to observe the huge Annapurna Conservation Area

In addition, I learned about the equipment needed for the trek, the lodging, and food we will receive while on the trek, the essential paperwork that must be carried, the challenges of the trek, altitude sickness and how to prevent it, and many other things.

It's important to have a basic understanding of the area you'll be visiting. It helps in your preparation both mentally and physically. Although I'll be completing this journey with a friend this time, getting to know the area won't hurt us. I haven't given it much thought since I suggested the trek to the previous company, and they all approved of it.

My first trip was fantastic, and this time I'll take a few extra days so I can see some of the tourist attractions as well. We will start our trek to the Annapurna base camp after finishing the Kathmandu-Pokhara city tour.

This trek is something I am looking forward to, and everything is set up. I'm excited to go back to the Himalayas to explore them once more and taste some authentic Nepalese cuisine. I advise NTA based on my personal experience if you want to embark on a journey but are unsure of where to begin. They are really professional, they plan everything for you so you don't have to worry about a thing, and they also provide you with all the information you need to know about your trip, so I can assure you that going on the trek with them will satisfy you.
