Ghorepani Poonhill trek is a colourful short
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. Around every corner is a
tantalizing glimpse of the high mountains, whole
horizons of which will be revealed to you as you
reach the high points of your trek.
This trek in the Annapurna foothills to the view
point on Poon Hill offers all the best of
trekking in Nepal. Enjoy trekking in the
spectacular mountain scenery through charming
villages inhabited by the Gurungs, Magars dense
rhododendron forests full of birds and deep
sub-tropical valleys, all set below the
Annapurnas with the picturesque peak of
Machhapuchhare (Fish Tail Peak) dominating the
skyline. At the climax of this trek you will
climb Poon Hill at dawn to enjoy one of the most
spectacular mountain scapes on Earth. As the sun
touches the snow-capped summits the Himalayan
giants, Dhaulagiri (8,167m) and Annapurna
