Description

The Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek is a short and accessible route in the Annapurna region, making it a good choice for beginners or anyone with only a few days in Nepal. The trail leads through rhododendron forests and traditional Gurung and Magar villages, giving you a mix of nature, village life and mountain scenery in a relatively short time. The main highlight is Poon Hill at 3,210 metres. An early morning walk to the viewpoint gives you wide views across the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges as the sun rises over the mountains. With just two days on the trail, this trek is ideal if you want a first experience of trekking in Nepal without committing to a longer or more demanding route.
