The base environment is the environment located at the root prefix.
This is a legacy
environment from
conda implementation that is still heavily used. The
base environment contains the
conda and
mamba installation alongside a Python installation (since
mamba and
conda require Python to run).
mamba and
conda , being themselves Python packages, are installed in the
base environment, making the CLIs available in all
activated environments
based on this
base environment.
Note
You can’t create the base environment because it’s already part of the root prefix structure. Directly install in base instead.

Concepts — documentationd at $root_prefix/pkgs/. The root prefix also provide a convenient structure to store environments $root_prefix/envs/, even if you are free to create an environment elsewhere.
