Trip Overview

Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek can be summarised as a trek that shows you the panoramic view of the snow-covered mountains that make up the Himalayas that the world wants to see that the Nepalese feel proud when they want to give an introduction of their country to foreigners. Ghorepani Poon Hill Trekking has all the aspects the trekkers want to see inside the Annapurna Conservation Area, including the Gurung and Magar cultures. This area is also home to different species of birds and is famous for the sunrise view over the mountains. All these make the Ghorepani Poon Hill Trekking the best in Nepal and the world. This is a short trek in the Annapurna Region, but if you want to go for a long walk, we have the Annapurna Circuit Trek, which takes you to Ghorepani and Poon Hill.
