“110% recommendation! ;) Welcome Nepal Treks offered me just a perfect experience to Poon Hill! Tanka Dahal was my guide and being together with him these days was like a personal friend is showing you every lovely highlight in his place. Nature was just great, Tanka was more than helpful and knew to answer really all of my questions. ;) Due to 15+ years of experience as a guide in this region he made this trip extra special, 'cause he knew all the best places for food & accommodation. And the service he offered me on each day and in each accommodation in addition was unbeatable. 1000 thanks!”

5.3-Day Ghorepani, Poon Hill and Ghandruk Guided Trek

Trek from Pokhara through rhododendron forests to Ghorepani, climb Poon Hill at 3,210 meters for sunrise, then descend to Gurung Ghandruk. A private English or Hindi guided trip includes permits, transport, two trek nights, and selected meals. Expect steep steps, basic tea houses, and changing mountain weather.

“Trekking this route was beautiful (and a good workout - lots of steps both up and down). Decent food was always available. At times the trails (especially Poon Hill for sunrise) were overcrowded (and noisy). Our guide was experienced and accommodating to our desires and trekking pace. The 1st nights accomodation (tea house) was very basic, as expected. But the 2nd night accommodation (Hungry Eye "hotel") in Ghandruk was a huge disappointment. Ghandruk has many very nice hotels available, yet the Hungry Eye was a total dump. Everything was broken and non-functional. Rooms and bedding were filthy. One of the worst "hotels" I've ever stayed in. Due to this poor…”
