Poon Hill Trek: A Journey to Breathtaking Panoramas and Cultural Riches

Poon Hill is a popular trekking destination in the Annapurna region of Nepal. It is known for offering stunning panoramic views of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri mountain ranges, including the majestic peaks of Annapurna I, II, III, and IV, Dhaulagiri, Lamjung Himal, and Machapuchare (Fishtail). The sunrise and sunset views from Poon Hill are particularly famous, and many trekkers visit this vantage point to witness the breathtaking scenery.

The Poon Hill trek is considered the best short trek in Nepal, making it suitable for a wide range of trekkers, including those with limited trekking experience. The accessibility, breathtaking views, and cultural experiences along the trail make Poon Hill a popular choice for trekking enthusiasts visiting Nepal.

Poon Hill Trek: For an Unforgettable Journey through Picturesque Landscapes, We Advise Starting from Kllu

The recommended starting point for the Poon Hill trek is Kllu, situated at an altitude of 1390 meters. Easily accessible from Pokhara, a private vehicle ensures a swift 2-hour journey to Kllu, setting the stage for an unforgettable trekking experience. The trek passes through picturesque villages, terraced fields, and dense rhododendron forests, offering a scenic and diverse landscape.

Ghorepani, located at an elevation of about 2,874 meters, is a charming village in the Annapurna region and serves as a common stop on the way to Poon Hill. Trekkers often use Ghorepani as a base to acclimatize and prepare for the early morning hike to Poon Hill. The village provides stunning views of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri mountain ranges, adding to the appeal of this important rest point during various treks in the region.

Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek: Optimal Seasons for an Enchanting Himalayan Journey

The best time to do the Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek, including the hike to Poon Hill, is during the Spring (Pre-Monsoon): March to May and Autumn (Post-Monsoon): September to November seasons. During these seasons, the weather conditions are relatively stable, and the trails are not hindered by monsoon rains or excessive snow. The temperatures are generally pleasant for trekking, and the views are spectacular. Keep in mind that while these are the optimal times, this trek can be done throughout the year, but trekking during the monsoon season (June to August) should be approached with caution due to heavy rainfall and potential trail difficulties.

Ghorepani Trek with Mountain Sherpa Trekking: 25 Years of Expertise, Personalized and Unparalleled Service

Mountain Sherpa Trekking, with over 25 years of local expertise, organizes the Ghorepani trek. Our seasoned Sherpa guides, having completed the trek more than 70 times, possess in-depth knowledge of the trail, lodges, and surroundings.

We had a great time with Mountain Sherpa trekking & expeditions. We did a 5 days Ghorepani poonhill trek with city sightseeing in Kathmandu and Pokhara city and both were spectacular. The company planning the trip was very helpful and answered all our questions we had. Our guides were phenomenal, and I felt very safe all the time.

We stayed in cozy lodge on the mountain while we are trekking and stayed at comfort hotels in City. We were treated like kings, and the guides and porters all took very good care of us. They were very polite and we felt very welcome. I would recommend Mountain Sherpa trekking & expeditions to recommend if you are looking for to visit.

It is so hard to pick a trekking company over the internet, and to trust that the one you pick and pay a deposit to is legitimate. I knocked it out of the park with this one. Mountain Sherpa Trekking & Expeditions was not only legit, they were consummate professionals, tending to every detail of my trip so I would be safe, cared for, and a happy customer. They surpassed their goal. I was ecstatic! My daughter and I trekked from Pokhara to Poon Hill and were awed in every step.

Our trip was booked through and arranged by the fine people at Mountain Sherpa Trekking & Expeditions. Our itinerary included 3 days in and around Kathmandu, the 6 day trek, 2 days rafting on the Seti river and 3 days on an elephant safari in Chitwan national park - all highly recommended. Mr Pasang Sherpa made all the arrangements and Mr Sumba Sherpa looked after us faultlessly for the two and a half weeks of our stay. We highly recommend this tour for all who wants to see Nepal well.

Our guide, Sumba taught us all manner of things about life in Nepal and showed us some incredible sights so it was only fair that we should in turn pass on some invaluable knowledge to him. During the many chats we had while Anne and Kevin toiled (and Sumba skipped) up hills and down dales, Sumba let it slip that, in addition to speaking excellent English, he also spoke a little French. Nepal is a popular destination for our European neighbors and, if you want business as a guide, you need to speak the lingo. As it turned out Sumba spoke really rather good French but he was unaware of the most important communication tool in the French language. So, without further ado, we launched into Gallic Shrugging lessons. A very quick learner, Sumba was soon a shrugging master.
By the end of the trek we were a fair bit fitter, in awe of the Nepalese great outdoors, charmed by the Nepalese people and, if truth be told, a bit smelly.

Would we have changed anything?
No.
Would we do it again?
Yes indeed. Maybe in spring, when the rhododendron forests are in bloom.
Would we recommend it to others?
Absolutely and without hesitation.

Mountain Sherpa Trekking made me feel welcome in Nepal from the moment I arrived til the moment I left. Pasang's scheduling and advice were excellent and he knows the tourism industry. He'll save you money as compared to an American company but never skimps on service because it's Nepal and hospitality is what these friendly people do best. The hotels were clean and comfortable. I did the five day trek to Poonhill. My guide was Tandi Sherpa from near Tibet--he was fun walk with and I always felt safe. The porter was a hearty and robust guy, also a Sherpa. The view from Poonhill was spectacular. During my trip I decided to add one night at Chitwan and not only was Pasang accommodating, I was even able to bathe with an elephant! I recommend this travel service. You get a lot for your money and you never feel used, abused, or cheated. They really care about making your trip great, they'll tell you what to avoid and what are the better things to do. They're nice because they want you to come back, and because people in Nepal are just really cool and friendly. I hope to go back soon.
