Best time to Visit Annapurna Base Camp

You can go to Annapurna base camp any time of the year, yet monsoon is not the good time. Due to heavy rainfall during the monsoon, no or bad views to beautiful snowcapped mountains.

September to November (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 is possible in winter as well. Dry air and clear sky with the best visibility but, during winter, it will be very cold and will snow. If you plan to trek in December, you need to prepare well with appropriate packaging, which we are expert in.
