Annapurna Base Camp trekking




When is the best time to do Annapurna Base Camp trekking?

Annapurna Base Camp can actually be done any time in the year. However, the monsoon is not a good time. Rain mostly comes down during the evening or night but the dark clouds are ever present. This means bad to no view of the beautiful peaks. It also means leeches, mosquitoes, possible landslides and slippery roads. But, this is the time when animals are most active. If you are a keen biologist, then maybe monsoon is for you.

First, here are the seasons. In Nepal, there are six seasons but it translates as:


  1. Spring (March to May)
  2. Summer/Monsoon (June to August)
  3. Autumn (September to November)
  4. Winter (December to February)


Autumn is the best time to do this trek. Autumn is a dry season that offers clear blue sky and moderate temperature. This is the best time do any trek in Nepal and is, therefore, very crowded.

You could go during December if you would like it to be quieter. ABC can be done in winter as well. Dry air and clear sky but, during winter, it will be very cold and will snow.

Starting from January, you need to be careful about the avalanche when travelling from Deurali to Machhapuchhre Base Camp. This stretch is prone to avalanche. Trekkers should be careful no matter what time in a year they are trekking when trekking from Deurali to MBC.

Spring is another best time to do the Annapurna Base Camp trek. Watch out for the avalanche though. Listen to the locals for the news about the Avalanche ahead. In spring, the trail will be covered in red and white rhododendrons and many other exotic flowers found in this region, a good time to go for botanists.
