Tour Overview
A short scenic trek that is big on beauty while leaving you with lasting memories of this unique destination. Our 3 day Ghorepani Poon Hill trek offers the best views of any trek on offer in Nepal. The Ghorepani Poon Hill is situated out of Pokhara in the Annapurna region of the Himalaya mountains. Considered a relatively very easy trek, we still recommend you work on your fitness level before you arrive in Nepal. Especially if you are heading for this faster, 3 days trek. 3 Days Poon Hill trek is good however if you really don’t have a long holiday but still want to go to Poon Hill (3,210m), considered a must-visit viewpoint in the Annapurna region of Nepal. Particularly popular for its stunning sunrise and sunset over Annapurna and Dhaulagiri's view. Itis also possible to take a flight to Pokhara from Kathmandu and drive straight on to the starting point of this trek (2 hours drive from Pokhara) if you really prefer to maximize your time. Discover and Explore the Himalayan land with Sherpa Expedition and Trekking Team. ...more ...less
