Enjoying the spectacular beauty of the Annapurna region, surrounded by the ancient culture, fine valleys, and Himalayan panoramas, you complete the trek. The Poon Hill trek via Ghorepani is possibly the best short Himalayan trek! This short and delightful walk is suitable for individuals of all ages and takes you right into the heart of Annapurna!

It is a short trek in the Annapurna region that takes you to one of the most famous viewpoints of the region, Poon Hill. From here, you see gorgeous sunrise along with the western Himalayan Mountains. Compared to trekking to Everest Base Camp or the Annapurna Circuit, the Ghorepani trek is the best choice for those who don't have the physical strength for a longer trek.

The Ghorepani trek encompassing Poon Hill and Ghandruk Region is also among the most traveled treks in the Annapurna region. The rays of morning lights on glistening snow-capped peaks create a heavenly view that will melt your heart. This is a perfect trek for couples, families, club members, students, and a group of friends. Trekking to Ghorepani is full of excitement and surprises with an astonishing array of vegetation with dense forests of rhododendron, juniper, oak, birch, etc.

If you are new to trekking, then the Ghorepani trek is a thrilling introduction to the wonders of trekking in the Himalayas of Nepal. It is a more laidback and easy package designed to let you explore the scenery of traditional villages, lush forests, fertile fields, and up-close views of some of the highest peaks on the planet. It is also a perfect trekking package for the novice or someone with less time to go on long trekking journeys.

From Pokhara, you follow a trekking route that leads to Ghorepani, a Gurung village on the Annapurna slopes, via verdant hills, forests, and ethnic communities. As you approach the village, you'll be treated to some spectacular views of the Annapurna panorama. A longer hike to Poon Hill will reward you with spectacular sunrise views amidst the Annapurna range's towering pinnacles.

Why is Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek considered a family trek?

Unlike other challenging and lengthy treks in the Annapurna Region, such as Annapurna Base Camp and Annapurna Circuit, the Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek provides a pleasurable trekking experience as you don't have to hike steep trails in the rugged Himalayan terrain for hours every day. Poon Hill, at an altitude of 3210 m, being the highest point of the trek, you and your family won't have to suffer from altitude sickness at all. You'll slowly trek, enjoying the rich vegetation and landscape of the region. The trek being easy, slow, and comfortable, makes it an ideal trekking journey for those traveling with their family, kids, and elderlies.

During the trek, you'll be staying at guesthouses owned by locals providing you and your family with a homely environment to spend some time together. Exposing young kids to completely different cultures and lifestyles broadens the children's horizons and makes them better understand the world and the people living in it. The humble locals of the region with rich culture also seed a feeling of gratitude in children's hearts.

What does a brief itinerary of the 10 Days Ghorepani Poon Hill look like?

Once you arrive at Kathmandu Airport, you're taken to your hotel and given a brief about the trek. The next day, you'll be taken for a full-day sightseeing tour of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites of kathmandu. The following day, you start your travel with a 5/6 hour drive in a tourist bus from Kathmandu to Pokhara. The drive is scenic and unique.

The trek then begins with a 3-hour drive to Nayapul and a short hike to Tikhedhunga. You finally ascend to Ghorepani the next day, followed by an early morning sunrise hike to Poon Hill and a trek to Tadapani. The trek journey is uniquely beautiful, with traditional villages surrounded by the luscious Annapurna forest with a distant view of the Annapurna Range in the background. The trek from Tadapani to Ghandruk the next day is in a dense forest but an easy one as you mostly descend downhill. You spend the night in Ghandruk and hike to Nayapul the next day and finally head back to Pokhara via a vehicle and then to Kathmandu.

How would I spend each day during the Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek?

Even though each day of your Ghorepani Poon Hill trekking trip will offer a unique experience, you will hike according to the same routine, with the exception of the days for bus journeys and sightseeing. The mountain lodge where you stayed the night before serves a delectable breakfast to begin your trekking day. After breakfast, pack your bags and spend a few hours on the ascending and descending track enjoying the beautiful scenery. About halfway through the day's hike, we stop at a teahouse for lunch. Your body will have some downtime for about an hour or two during your lunch break. You'll hike for a few more hours after lunch to reach your destination for the day. After you arrive at your lodge, unwind, socialize with other visitors over dinner, and get a good night's sleep.

Likewise, you will visit important UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Kathmandu on the sightseeing tour, including Pashupatinath Temple, Swayambhunath Temple, Bouddhanath Stupa, and Kathmandu Durbar Square. A tour guide, who will accompany you on the day trip, will explain the historical, cultural, and religious significance of the locations you see. You'll also be traveling by tourist bus to and from Pokhara for a couple of days. You can spend the evenings in Pokhara doing some sightseeing or relaxing at the Lakeside.

Dominated mainly by Gurung and Magars, this journey will let you experience the norms, values, and ancient practices of locals. You will see several gumbas, stupas, and chortens on the trail.

The Gurkhas, the world's most valiant warriors, call these villages home. Overall, the trek is the best option to quickly learn about the natural and cultural heritage of the Annapurna region.

During the trek, a small detour leads you to the picturesque Ghandruk Village. If you want to explore more of the Annapurna region, you can also do Annapurna Base Camp Trekking or Annapurna Circuit Trekking.

Ghandruk Village, the name in itself is enough!

The Ghorepani trek experience will take you through Ghandruk's picturesque villages. Photographers also refer to the region as "Photographer's Heaven." The distinctive culture of the Gurungs who live in the area is Ghandruk's biggest attraction. It entertains tourists with Gurung dances and offers them the option to dress up in traditional Gurung attire and jewelry. Tourists are ecstatic to try on the new Gurung outfits and take photos in the traditional style. The native cuisine is also a big draw, especially for visitors from other nations. Ghandruk also provides tourists with horseback riding opportunities. Tourists can also enjoy playing in the snow at Ghandruk's upper slope.

Ghorepani: experience culture like no other!

Surrounded by beautiful rhododendron forests and snow-covered mountains, Ghorepani is a beautiful village. Here, you will get to spend one of the best times of your life amidst Gurung and Magar people. You will get to interact with them and see their daily lifestyle.

Ghorepani village is also a one-of-a-kind Gurung settlement that is rich in culture and hospitality. Ghorepani is split into two parts: Lower Ghorepani and Upper Ghorepani. We can see mountain views from Lower Ghorepani, but we can see mountains up close to Upper Ghorepani. The temperature drops in the evening, and clouds cover the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri mountain ranges in the afternoon.

Stunning Sunrise from Poon Hill View Point

Located above Ghorepani village, Poon Hill is a very famous viewpoint of the Annapurna region. Experience stunning sunrise and sunset along with a distant view of the western Himalayas. Trekkers usually walk up to Poon Hill for a short hike in the early morning for sunrise. 

The best part of the trek is waking up at Ghorepani early in the morning to see the beautiful sunrise over the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri region peaks. If getting up early isn't your thing, stay for the sunset, and you'll be just as amazed. Views of Annapurna (8091m), Hiuchuli (6441m), Machhapuchhare (6993m), Dhaulagiri (8167m), Manaslu (8156m), and more can be seen from the Poon Hill viewpoint. The peaks appear to be on fire due to the sun's fiery orange hue. What a magnificent sight!

Things you should know before you plan your Ghorepani Trek

We've got you covered on everything from picking which season to trek to how to fit you need to be, everything you need to know about trekking permits, what to bring and leave at home, and what to expect at the teahouses!

What is the best time to go on trekking in the Ghorepani Poon Hill region?

Spring and autumn is the best time to go on Poon Hill Trekking. Months from March to May and September to November fall under these two seasons. The weather is usually stable, and the clear sky makes the views magnificent. On top of that, the moderate climate makes the journey more joyful.

Likewise, Monsoon (June to July) is not recommended to go on Ghorepani Trek because of rainfall and slippery trails. The views are also not clear. While in winter (December to February), the unbearable cold takes away the thrill of trekking, however, it is the best time to capture the irresistible beauty of the Annapurna Himalayas.

What kind of food and accommodation should I expect during my trek in the Ghorepani region?

During the 10 days Poon Hill Trek via Ghorepani, you will stay in a modest lodge or teahouse on the trek and at 3-star hotels in Kathmandu and Pokhara. You will be lodged in tourist-friendly hotels and lodges in the trekking region. We can also select a luxury hotel and teahouse that is within your budget range. The tour includes premium and deluxe hotels and lodges in addition to affordable hotel and lodge accommodations. Comfortable beds with cushions, electric blankets, hot and cold showers, free Wi-Fi, and other amenities are available at the lodge.

Dal Bhat, a Nepalese dish, offers your body enough carbs and protein. The lentils, beans, and pulses soup will provide enough protein for your body. Seasonal veggies will also be served in the guest's home, supplying your body with additional nutrients. You can sample other menu items including Momo (dumplings), locally grown Barley, Buckwheat, Millet, and Corn Roti (Bread), noodles, sandwiches, bakery products, tea, coffee, and more if you give them a chance. Buckwheat, millet, and barley are high-fibre cereals that are also nutritionally dense. Noodles, spaghetti, macaroni, pizza, lasagna, various curry dishes, and fried rice are just a few examples of cuisines that can be prepared for you!

How fit do you need to be for trekking in the Annapurna Region?

This particular trekking experience does not involve much physical work because it follows the lower foothills of Nepal's Annapurna region. This trekking is open to everyone with a modest level of physical fitness. This trek is suitable for people of all ages, including children and the elderly. So, the Poon Hill and Ghandruk hike are suitable for the entire family.

Trek casually in and out of culturally diverse multi-ethnic communities while taking in amazing Himalayan vistas of Dhaulagiri, Nilgiri, Annapurna, Fish Tail, Hiunchuli, and other snow-capped mountains. This is also the best option for first-time hikers.

How safe is Ghorepani Poon Hill for trekking?

At Outfitter Nepal, we place the highest priority on safety. This is one area where we simply do not cut corners. Our trekking guides were chosen for their technical expertise, proven safety performance, impeccable judgment, kind demeanour, and ability to deliver practical and professional directions. They are also quite professional and have had extensive first aid and personal protective equipment training.

How difficult is trekking in the Poon Hill and Ghorepani Region?

In the Ghorepani region, trekking is relatively easy. The trail is rather easy in comparison to other treks in the region. The risk of high altitude sickness is low as you progressively gain elevation. Nonetheless, if you notice AMS symptoms, notify your guide right away. When it comes to the trail, it has a fair mix of difficult and moderate courses. As you are hiking for 6 to 7 hours per day, you must have good stamina and health.

What should you pack for Poon Hill Trek?

Your gear is your best buddy when you're out in the mountains. It doesn't matter where you're going; your gear is essential. Gear can make the difference between life and death in harsh situations. In any case, having the proper equipment can mean the difference between having a nice time and having a hard time.

Here's a rough idea of what you'll need for your trek

  • Trekking Boots
  • Sandals/Crocs
  • Few pairs of undergarments
  • High quality down jacket and pant
  • Thermal wears
  • T-shirts and trousers
  • Trekking pole
  • A pair of gloves
  • Woollen hat
  • Sunglasses
  • Sunscreen
  • Energy bars

What is the best way to get in shape for the Ghorepani trek via Poon Hill?

It will be difficult to prepare your legs for greater elevations if you do not reside in the Himalayas. It doesn't get much higher than Nepal, after all. Fortunately, this trek is not one of Nepal's high-altitude treks, nor is it as long as some of the country's other treks. It is rather simple to prepare for the Poon Hill Trek.

If you're going on a longer trek, we recommend doing some physical training beforehand, such as running, swimming, or climbing. Similarly, you should be aware of what to expect and mentally prepare yourself. Then go ahead and do it for as long as you dare!

Which is the best trekking company for all your trekking ventures?

The beauty of the internet is that it allows you to locate anything from any place. Trekking companies are also in the same boat. However, with so much to choose from, finding a trekking operator that suits you can be difficult. Here, at Outfitter Nepal, we make sure to fulfil all your trek wishes. Your trip can be completely customized, and we look forward to assisting you in creating lifelong memories. Your wishes are our number one priority! That is why Outfitter Nepal is the best option for you!

Do you need any permit to trek around Ghorepani and Poon Hill?

If you're going to the Poon Hill trekking region, you'll need two trekking permits in particular. The Annapurna Conservation Area Project Card is the first (ACAP card).

The Trekkers Information Management System Card is another permit required for the (TIMS card). If you are a solo Trekker, this card will cost you around US$ 20 (around NRs 2200) and if you are a Group Trekker, it will cost you around US$ 10 (roughly NRs 1200). Outfitter Nepal will take care of all your permit needs.

    Well organised Ghorepani Trek

    I did a 10 days Ghorepani poon hill trek includes chitwan jungle safari trip that took in Kathmandu, a five day Poon Hill trek and Chitwan.

    All well put together especially considering the modest cost.

    I do not have any word to recommend this company for your Nepal trip.
