Meals and Accommodation on the Annapurna Base Camp Trek
Embarking on the Annapurna Base Camp Trek offers not only breathtaking landscapes but also a chance to experience the warmth and hospitality of the Himalayan teahouse culture. Throughout the journey, trekkers stay in locally run teahouses and lodges, known for their cozy and welcoming atmosphere. Rooms are typically simple, with twin beds, mattresses, and blankets, catering to the needs of adventurers. While the teahouses along the lower elevations are well-equipped, accommodations at higher point become more basic, reflecting the remoteness of these areas. For extra comfort, sleeping bags can often be arranged on request.
In addition to the teahouse accommodations, this package includes a 2-night stay in Kathmandu and 1-night in Pokhara at well-appointed tourist-standard hotels. After days on the trail, these hotels provide a refreshing break, featuring air-conditioned rooms, ensuite bathrooms, and complimentary breakfasts to help you unwind.
Meals during the trek are thoughtfully planned to provide energy and variety. Breakfast options include items like porridge, Tibetan bread, pancakes, eggs, and tea or coffee, setting you up for the day’s adventure. Lunch and dinner menus feature an array of choices such as Nepali dal bhat sets, soups, noodles, fried rice, dumplings, pasta, and curries. The meals, although simple compared to city standards, are freshly prepared and full of flavor, often made with locally sourced ingredients. In Kathmandu and Pokhara, however, you’ll find a wide range of dining options, from fast food to gourmet restaurants, allowing you to indulge in diverse cuisines.
Whether enjoying a hearty meal at a quaint mountain lodge or relishing the comforts of a hotel in the city, your Annapurna Base Camp experience ensures a balance of adventure and relaxation, making every moment memorable.
Gurung Community of Ghandruk Village
Ghandruk is more than just a scenic stop on the Annapurna Trek—it’s a chance to connect with the heart and soul of the Gurung community. As you walk through the charming stone-paved paths of the village, you’re likely to be greeted with warm smiles and a friendly “Namaste.” The Gurung people are known for their hospitality, rich traditions, and proud history, especially their legacy as brave Gurkha soldiers. Spending time here offers a beautiful glimpse into their way of life—whether it’s watching women weaving traditional clothes, tasting home-cooked dal bhat, or enjoying local folk songs and dances in the evening. With stunning mountain views all around and a peaceful village vibe, Ghandruk invites you to slow down and truly experience the culture that makes this region so special.

Trekking in Nepal is an incredible adventure, taking you through diverse landscapes, from lush forests to rugged mountain trails. To fully enjoy the experience, it’s crucial to pack the right equipment. Here’s an essential checklist to help you prepare for your trek, ensuring you’re ready for the challenges and beauty of the Himalayas.
1. Clothing
Base Layers: Moisture-wicking base layers (thermal tops and bottoms) are essential for regulating your body temperature. Opt for lightweight, breathable materials.
Mid Layers: Fleece jackets or lightweight down jackets provide warmth in colder temperatures. These layers should be easy to add or remove as needed.
Outer Layers: A waterproof and windproof jacket is essential to protect against rain, wind, and snow. Make sure it’s breathable to stay comfortable during strenuous activities.
Trekking Pants: Lightweight, quick-drying pants are ideal. Consider packing thermal pants for colder regions or seasons.
Gloves, Hats, and Buffs: Warm gloves, a woolen hat, and a buff or neck gaiter help protect against the cold at high altitudes.
Trekking Socks: High-quality, moisture-wicking socks (at least three pairs) are crucial to prevent blisters and keep your feet dry.
2. Footwear
Trekking Boots: Sturdy, well-fitted, and waterproof trekking boots with good ankle support are essential. Break them in before your trek to avoid blisters.
Sandals or Camp Shoes: Lightweight sandals or camp shoes for relaxing at tea houses or lodges after a long day of trekking.
3. Backpack and Storage
Daypack (20-30 liters): A small, comfortable daypack with rain cover to carry essentials like water, snacks, camera, and extra layers.
Duffel Bag (60-80 liters): For your main gear, use a durable, waterproof duffel bag that will be carried by porters.
Dry Bags or Ziplock Bags: For protecting electronics, documents, and clothes from moisture.
4. Trekking Gear

Headlamp with Extra Batteries: Essential for early morning starts, late finishes, or use in lodges where electricity may be limited.
Water Bottles and Purification: Carry reusable water bottles and purification tablets or a water filter to ensure safe drinking water.
