Difference Between Annapurna Base Camp and Annapurna North Base Camp
There is a significant difference between Annapurna Base Camp and Annapurna North Base Camp Trek. Let us break down the details for each trekking route.
The Annapurna Base Camp is situated at an elevation of 4,130 meters (13,549 feet). It lies in the southern part of the Annapurna massif. The trek begins from Nayapul and sometimes from Phedi village. Based on the route, trekkers will pass through the picturesque villages of Ghandruk, Chhomrong, Ghorepani, Ulleri, Bamboo, Jhinu Danda, and several others. The route passes by terraced fields and rhododendron and oak forests. The trek takes 7 to 12 days to complete.
Meanwhile the Annapurna North Base Camp goes through remote and off-the-beaten-paths. It goes through the luscious green forests, charming villages, and terraced fields. The base camp is situated in the northern part of the Annapurna massif and lies at an elevation of 4,190 meters (13,827 feet). Trekkers will pass by villages like Tatopani, Narchyang, Choote Pa, and Sandhi Kharka while on trek. It is a short trek that usually takes around 5 to 7 days to complete.
Guide and Porter For Annapurna North Base Camp Trek
It has become mandatory to hire a government-licensed guide for trekking in Nepal as of April 1, 2023. The guides play a crucial role in providing support while also ensuring the trekker’s safety. They help to navigate the trail and make sure that you are on the right path. Similarly, they act as a bridge for communicating with the local communities. Carrying a heavy backpack while trekking on remote and rugged terrain is physically challenging. The porters help to reduce the physical strain by carrying the heavy baggage on the trekker’s behalf. Trekkers can freely enjoy the trek without additional burden on them. They can focus on enjoying the trek rather than on the physical burden.
Nepal Alternative Trek’s Annapurna North Base Camp Trek package comes with a guide, cook, and required porters. The guides are experienced, government-authorized, and fluent in English. Similarly, they are trained to provide first aid in case of emergencies.
Required Permits
The permits required for the Annapurna North Base Camp Trek are a TIMS card and ACAP.

Trekkers have to obtain a card for trekking any routes in Nepal. The cost for the card is NPR. 2000 for SAARC residents and NPR. 1000 for foreigners. The card is obtainable through registered trekking agencies in Nepal.
Annapurna Conservation Area Project Permit (ACAP)

- ACAP: NPR. 3000 for foreigners and NPR 1000 for SAARC.
- Note: Children below 10 years are free
Travel Insurance
You must have your travel insurance with you. So, make sure your travel insurance company covers all your safety measures. Ensure that the insurance company provides you with every facility. It will come in handy and has a lot of benefits during the trek. Therefore, ensure that your travel insurance covers your injury, medical expenses, repatriation expenses, rescue mission, loss of property, etc. But, most importantly make sure your travel insurance has not expired. Furthermore, ensure that your Insurance policy covers your 4200m trekking and adventure policy.
The travel insurance is not included in the Nepal Alternative Treks’ Annapurna North Base Camp Trek. So, trekkers have to pay for the insurance by themselves. Also, read the terms and conditions of the insurance carefully before you take one. You should be clear about the insurance policy so that there will be no problem in the future.
Fitness and experience requirements
While trekking through high altitudes you must be physically and mentally fit. Most importantly, you should also not have any blood-related diseases. Furthermore, you should have experience climbing small peaks. Similarly, being confident and passionate about the trek is also important. Furthermore, make sure that you have some knowledge about the conditions of the trek.
Climate and weather
The climate and weather of Nepal is highly influenced by the seasonal changes. There are four distinct seasons which are spring (March to May), summer (June to August), autumn (September to November), and winter (December to February) season. It usually gets hot from May to August while it is cold and chilly from late November to February. Spring and autumn seasons have warm weather and a favorable climate for the Annapurna North Base Camp Trek. The vegetation is luscious and the landscapes are vibrant. Additionally, the visibility is brilliant without any obstruction during these two seasons. However, the weather can get a little unpredictable as you move to the higher elevations.
The summer season coincides with the monsoon which brings heavy rainfall across Nepal. The trail gets muddy, slippery, and filled with leeches. There is also the risk of landslides. Meanwhile, there is heavy snowfall in higher elevations in the winter season. It can block the high passes and there are also risks for the avalanches. The temperature can drop up to -13 degrees Celsius at the Annapurna North Base Camp. The harshness of the trails makes it difficult to trek during these seasons. But with proper preparation, it is possible to trek in these two seasons.
Safety and Security
Annapurna North Base Camp Trek is a strenuous-level trek. So, it can get a little difficult for new trekkers. And, we make sure our people are safe during the trek. So, the safety and security of the trekkers are important factors for our company. Similarly, we take full care of our consumer and their property. Similarly, our trip constantly operates monitoring every area of our travel. So, you should not worry about your belongings when you are traveling with us.

13 Days Manaslu Trek !
My friend and I were lucky to find Tej online before visiting Nepal. We knew we wanted to do a trek, but we weren’t sure exactly which trek. Tej sent us a bunch of itineraries for different treks and we chose the Manaslu circuit. When we arrived our guide, Kumar, was waiting for us at the airport and Tej was able to get us all our permits for the trek done in less than 2 hours which was great. The manaslu trek was absolutely amazing! We were super happy with our whole trip and we were lucky to be able to make the pass even though we saw dozens of other people who had to turn back because of the weather. We are already looking forward to going back next year at the same time to trek Everest and we will definitely use Tej again!

,USA3 Weeks Personal Retreat
“Nepal Alternative Trek addressed my needs according to my schedule and agenda. I stayed most of the time at his home-stay, shuttling between home and the places that I wanted to visit. Tej, the boss behind Nepal Alternative Trek, helped to make my stay in Kathmandu comfortable and productive. He walked me to the monasteries that I wanted to visit and even picked me up when I needed a ride back home.
The home-stay is hosted by his wife and I got to experience living with a Nepalese family, sharing their food, space and laughter.
For the home-stay:
1) Meals available upon request
2) Family get together and chats
3) Regular change of bed-sheets and towels
4) Free WIFI
5) Near Swayambhu and Thamel
6) Safe environment
7) Mountainous forest behind home
8) Walking distance to beautiful monasteries
9) Away from hustle and bustle of towns yet easy to get to town
I left the home-stay with a smile.
All the best,

India8 days non trek city tour and 21days trek to EBC and chola pass
We love nepal and made 3 time visit to this beutiful country and rich culture. This time last year we came with 6 pax and visited Kathmandu , Pohkara and chitwan with a stay of 2 night in each place. We flew to Pohkara and got the van to chitwan and flew to Kathmandu. Tej arranged all transports overland and flights for us. We did not asked for a local guide but it was all smooth and no problem. We are happy with the service provided by Tej and he made all efforts to make us happy. His company performed professional with the very reasonable pricing. We encountered some small problem with the van transporting us back from nagarkot to kathmandu airport. This van was quite small and it came to pick up quite late that we almost missed the flight to pohkara. We told Tej about this and he must take care of this outsourced van company. Anyway the van in pohkara and to chitwan was excellent , big and comfy. So he has corrected the mistake.
Part 2 was our trek to EBC and chola pass for 21 nights. Tej arranged for flight and guide plus porter. For this trekking it was only me and my wife travelling together. We are about 50 years and used the service of 2 porters cause we bought a lot of dry food plus chocolate. We are difficult persons in terms of foreign food. Our guide Ammer and 2 porters are fabulous. They took care of us very well like we are part of their family.
Overall we strongly recommend this company. They are good and not high expensive tag. We will use their service again in June to trek in Langtang. Rocky

Bangkok, ThailandA great experience on the Annapurna Circuit
We had a fantastic experience on the Annapurna Circuit with Nepal Alternative Treks. Tej, the manager, was helpful, professional and efficient in dealing with our requirements and amendments, the arrangements worked smoothly and the information provided to us was excellent. Our guide Kul was brilliant. He was friendly, knowledgable and experienced and took changes in our itinerary in his stride. Our trekking experience was much better with his help in everything from planning the stages of the route to organising our food and accommodation. Just one warning: he is an ace card player and will probably beat you hands down!

UKA wonderful and interesting trek overall
A wonderful & interesting trek overall. Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances ( heavy snow fall & Lie ping with a bad cold) we were unable to cross the Ganja la pass. However, our guide Simbir offered us as alternative trek which took us on a difference journey of Nepal. We had the opportunity to visit & stay in many local villages and meet Tamang, Gurung people experience, their lifestyle and culture. We visited our guide’s home town of Chalishgaun and timed it right to join in with Diwali celebrations!

USAA trip worth of a lifetime!
Attempting Everest base camp trekking for me & my group was taking it to the next level. Before this, our limits were Kedarnath, MadMaheshwar & Tunganath with max distances of 18-19 kms spread over 2-3 days. Moreover, these tracks are such that people doesn’t necessarily have to trek. They have the option of ponies. EBC involves a lot for people like us (acclimatization to altitude, strength etc.), but above all, you need someone to provide logistical support, moral support that it can be done. This is where Nepal Alternative Treks does a great job. They organized it very well, guides and porters provided were very reliable and cost is reasonable when you compare to others. They can customize your travel plan according to your need.

IndiaA Trek in Ruby Valley !
A few weeks ago we went on a trip to Nepal, accompanied by a couple of friends who were on their second trip with Nepal Alternative Trek. Our first goal was to trek to the village of Chalish in Ruby Valley. We decided to go with the services of Nepal Alternative Trek to take us up there. We went there partly by jeep, partly walking through the cultivated terraces, meeting the inhabitants of the different communities who worked there.
I must say that the service that Tej offered us was perfect on all lines. First of all, before our departure, months before, Tej always answered our many questions (luggage, temperature, route to be revised, etc.) Always within 24 hours, he answered with a lot of patience.
All the equipment we thought we would need was available at his office.
Our guide Ammar led us to destination with confidence and professionalism. He knew all the trails, and especially all the shortcuts to avoid us having to go up or down too much along our road. He has managed all the difficulties we have encountered: due to personal reasons, we had to change and our itinerary, and our calendar, and he made everything possible. The whole team adapted to our changes. Our guide contacted Tej who orchestrated the changes without us even having to deal with anything.
The porters were attentive and were always in front of our needs.
Our journey continued towards Bandipur with the driver who made us know the various interesting points, from sunrise to sunset, making detours to take us to the most famous places. Then a 2 days stay in Chitwan, and return to Kathmandu again where the driver carried us without calculating from one place to another – God knows that traffic in Kathmandu, Bakhtapur and Patan can be complicated.
Thanks to Tej, and the whole Nepal Alternative Trek team. We will remember forever that amazing experience.
