Dovan is a small yet important overnight stop located at an altitude of 2,600 meters (8,530 feet) on the world-famous Annapurna Base Camp (ABC) Trek in Nepal. Nestled deep inside the Annapurna Conservation Area, Dovan lies between Bamboo (2,300 m) and Himalaya (2,920 m) along the scenic Modi Khola Valley. It is one of the most popular resting places for trekkers making their way towards Annapurna Base Camp (4,130 meters).
Although Dovan is a small mountain settlement surrounded by dense bamboo, oak, and rhododendron forests, it offers several comfortable teahouses and lodges that provide accommodation, freshly prepared meals, hot drinks, and a warm dining area. The peaceful atmosphere, fresh mountain air, and beautiful forest surroundings make it an ideal place to relax before continuing the journey to higher elevations.
Most trekkers spend one night in Dovan to break up the ascent and prepare for the following day's trek to Himalaya or Deurali. During spring (March to May), the surrounding hillsides are covered with colorful rhododendron blossoms, while autumn (September to November) offers crystal-clear mountain views and pleasant trekking conditions. Dovan is also home to a variety of Himalayan wildlife, making it an excellent place to experience the natural beauty of the Annapurna Sanctuary.
