The Australian Camp is situated at the altitude of 1,990m and is considered as the best place to see the glorious view of holy mountain Macchapuchhre (Fish Tail Mountain), Mount Annapurna, Mount Dhaulagiri, etc. It is called Australian Camp because in this place, Australians were the first to set their camps before anyone else.

Annapurna short trek: AMAZING!!

Stumble Bharal adventure on FB and i have never regretted my choice of guide!! Arjun was very accomodative, helpful and attentive. He recommended me one of the best short trek for those with health issues yet can still enjoy the nature to the fullest! We requested for female guide, Shristi. Her patience was very commendable she was experience and she actually altered our route perfectly! We will sure come back and do longer trek! Thanks Arjun & team for the wonderful experience! Hope to see you again!
