To lessen the likelihood of an avalanche, it’s essential to trek in optimal conditions and to follow well-established trails. Every trekker should avoid high-risk areas with a chance of an avalanche or snowfall. They should also watch out for indicators of unstable snow, such as cracking or recent avalanches nearby.

Similarly, we will suggest the place of avalanches. In an avalanche, acting quickly and seeking professional aid is crucial.
Avalanche-prone locations on the Annapurna Base Camp trek are primarily found in the region before Deurali, a popular resting place for trekkers.

One of the ideal avalanche-prone zones is the area above the Dovan Hotel, which requires careful consideration. Deurali and Himalaya Hotels are considered high-risk avalanche zones when walking from Chhomrong.
