The Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek starts and ends in Pokhara; a colorful foray into the Annapurna region. The trail winds through patchwork valleys, dense mossy forests, and past icy waterfalls where you can stop to cool your face.
Throughout the trek, every corner is a tantalizing glimpse of the high mountains. The whole horizon will be revealed to you as you reach the high points of your trek. Trekking to the viewpoint at Poon Hill offers you unobstructed mountain views. This trek is one of the perfect options to witness the true beauty of trekking in Nepal.
Poon Hill trek comes under the short treks in Nepal that can be completed within a week once you are in Nepal. The trek starts from Pokhara, one of the tourist hubs in the country. The trek consists of numerous uphill and downhill trails through rivers, valleys, and forests giving you a refreshing break amongst nature.
Ghorepani Poonhill Trek is an easy trek through charming villages inhabited by Gurungs, Magars, and other ethnic groups. The trails follow through dense rhododendron forests full of birds and deep sub-tropical valleys. The beautiful valleys are all set below the Annapurnas with the picturesque peak of Machhapuchhare (Fish Tail Peak) dominating the skyline.
