Poon Hill Trek is a short trek in easy access from Pokhara. The highest point of the trek, Poon Hill at 3,200 m, offers the best panoramic view of over a dozen Himalayan peaks including 3 of the top ten highest in the world. The trail climbs from the charming villages into the Rhododendron forest coming to the mountain pass settlement of Ghorepani. Sweeping view of Kaligandaki valley with world’s deepest gorge and walking in the world’s largest Rhododendron forest make the trek popular. Moreover, trekkers can get the deeper insight of Gurung and Magar ethnic people who are the most preferred ‘Gurkhas’ (Gurkha solders) recruits.
The tour, guides, and porters exceeded all of my expectations. They planned and adjusted our tour to our needs throughout the trek. They were experienced, positive, knowledgeable and so much fun. By the end of our trip, I felt like I was leaving part of my family behind. Thanks for an amazing trip. I hope to be back for another tour!
