Ghorepani-Poon Hill trek is the perfect introduction to trekking adventure in Nepal. Without having to gain much elevation or embarking on a physically strenuous hike, this short trek in the Annapurna region allows trekkers to enjoy one of the grandest panoramas of mountains in the world. This panorama also includes the 7th (Dhaulagiri 8,167m) and the 10th (Annapurna I 8,091m), highest mountains in the world. However, apart from these two towering peaks, trekkers can also see other stunning peaks like Tukuche, Thapa Peak, Nilgiri-South, Central and North, Tilicho Peak, Patal Hiunchuli, Annapurna South, Baraha Shikhar Chuli, Singu Chuli, Tharpu Chuli, Tare Kang, Gangapurna, Annapurna III, Gandarwa Chuli, Machhapuchhre, Mardi Himal, Annapurna IV, Annapurna II as well as Lamjung Himal. Additionally, the settlements of Ulleri and Ghorepani allow trekkers to delve into the authentic Magar (ethnic group in Nepal) culture, tradition and lifestyle in Nepal.
Ghorepani Poon Hill trek is a short trek in the Annapurna region in Nepal. It only takes two days to complete the trek. The journey starts with a drive from Pokhara to Ulleri. From Ulleri, the trekkers will trek to Ghorepani, spend a night there and hike to Poon Hill the next morning for a mountain sunrise view. After enjoying the morning hike and the view, the trekkers will return to Ghorepani for breakfast, then hike down to Ulleri to catch a vehicle back to Pokhara and end the trekking journey.
However, our 7 days Ghorepani-Poon Hill trekking package starts with your arrival in Kathmandu and ends with your departure from Kathmandu.

However, if you are looking to add a bit more trekking days to the trip without gaining more elevation, our 9 days Ghorepani Poon Hill with Ghandruk Trek will be the best alternative for you. If you are looking for other short treks in the Annapurna region with more elevation, our 6 days Annapurna Base Camp Trek from Pokhara and 6 days Mardi Himal Trek from Pokhara make the perfect options for you.
