In reply to Anubhab. There is no wait time for the permit, so if you can visit the permit office, you should be able to get one there and then. Not sure about solo trekking.

It’s an extensive guide, Marek! I guess the permit charges have gone up now.
Thank you.

Super useful information. Thank you! Looking forward to doing this trek in April! Does anyone have experience doing it at this time? It is during the Nepali New Year, and I wonder whether Iwill need to book accommodation ahead of time or not.

In reply to Arun. If you stay and eat in the tea houses you need to carry only clothes/poncho/some gear snacks etc. You could do it with a (spacious) day pack... no need for a porter.

Thanks for an informing article, Marek.
I am planning the ABC in late March this year and your write-up helps me.
For a solo traveller, what would be approximately the weight one will have to carry through the trek?
I suppose those who don’t want to carry no more than a day pack will need a Porter for the rest of his luggage.
Can you comment on this please?
Thanks.

In reply to Karo. You can get your own travel insurance (like with World Nomads) which should cover mountain hiking

Great post! There was lot of useful information and reading it made me really look forward to my trek.

One question tho: What is the best way of getting back from ABC? Jhinu-Landruk-Kande?
