“Let’s not deprive ourselves of the beauty that lies hidden within the wilderness outside.”

Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek fills in as a standout amongst the most available dawn and dusk sees in the Himalayas with practically every component of ordinary trekking goal of Nepal. Sublime and all encompassing view of the Himalayas, socially and generally rich ethnic towns, and differing vegetation makes this trekking goal a standout among the most prominent trekking goals for the travelers. This trek is appropriate for trekkers who wish to encounter the genuine hilly terrains of Nepal yet have a brief time without moving towards higher elevations.

Our 9 day Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek commences from the charming excellence of Pokhara city and advance along the bank of Bhurungdi River, through the little settlement of Nayapul which can be reached with a few hours’ drive from Pokhara. You can either reach Pokhara through a drive on a go of 6-7 hours or by a flight of around 30 minutes. Trekking along the positive and low height scene, trekkers go through thick woodland and vegetation decorated by rhododendron, orchids and magnolia and possessed by White-breasted kingfisher, Highland Butterfly and different creatures. We go through the settlements, for example, Tikhedhungga, Ulleri, Nayathati and Banthati before we reach to Ghorepani, the antiquated stoppage for the dealers in transit to Tibet where they sustained their steeds with water giving the name Ghorepani to this place. The pre-day break trekking to Poon Hill to see the dawn is the highlight of this trek. Trekkers set themselves on the peak outfitted with cameras as they hold up to catch the delightful snapshot of dawn. The Sun gradually ascends the skyline; the outline of mountains is gradually observed taken after by the chasms of slopes, layouts of valleys and houses lastly the sun ascends over the scope of mountains including the Annapurna run, Dhaulagiri run, Manaslu massifs and the holy Machapuchare or Fishtail Mountain. The minute when sun paints the earth with its brilliant beams is genuinely supernatural sight. In the wake of encountering the dreamlike sight in the Poon Hill, we should set out toward another popular Gurung town of Ghandruk and Landruk to end the trekking background in this locale. Well known for exceptionally masterminded houses, warm neighborliness, rich and impossible to miss culture and convention, radiant perspectives of the Himalayas and the exhibition hall saving the credible social & customary legacies, Landruk is another fascinating place in this trek. We then set out toward Pokhara and later take a drive back to Kathmandu to end our incredible 9 day trek.
