Overview

Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek is a wonderful opportunity to experience short, easy and most beautiful trekking. Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek offers panoramic views of stunning Annapurna Himalayan range while passing through beautiful forests, insightful local Gurung and Magar villages initiating our journey from the beautiful lake city of Pokhara. At maximum altitude of 3210 meters above sea level, Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek is one of the most popular short treks in Nepal.

Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek starts next day after your arrival at Tribhuwan International Airport and sightseeing around the culturally rich Kathmandu valley. We will then take a scenic drive from Kathmandu to the paradise city of Pokhara. In Pokhara you can relax at 800 meters with a bottle of beer or while boating on Phewa Lake, you can see stunning views of snowcapped peaks. Clean and peaceful surrounding with lots of adventure sports to try; Pokhara is the place that captivates you totally in its natural beauty. Our Ghorepani Poon Hill Trekking journey kicks off as we drive towards Nayapul which is the starting point of the trek. Slowly hiking through waterfalls, small settlements, bamboo and rhododendron forests, we stay overnight at Tikhedhunga. The journey through nature to Ghorepani and Poon Hill then tests our fitness as we ascend 3300 steps at Ulleri which rewards us with great views of the Himalayas hiding in the shade of the trees. Capture the perfect picture of landscapes, trees and Himalayas at this point. Pushing ourselves further for a couple of hours we arrive at Ghorepani village.

Ghorepani is actually derived from two Nepali words Ghoda (Horse) and Pani (Water). At ancient times, traders used to use this route to trade from Tibet. They found the water resource here for their horses and named the place ‘Ghodepani’ or ‘Ghorepani’. Next day before dawn we hike up to Poon Hill to capture the best sunrise views over the Himalayas in Nepal. You will be mesmerized as you see the golden rays of the sun slowly rise through the Annapurna Himalayan range, Mt. Dhaulagiri, Mt. Machhapuchre, Mt. Nilgiri, Tukuche peak, Lamjung Himal and other neighboring peaks. After sunrise views we descend towards Tadapani. Further trekking through the insightful cultural and traditional Gurung village of Ghandruk, we will head back to Pokhara and then finally end our Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek by driving towards Kathmandu.

Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek can be joined during any time of the year by travel and nature lovers. But if you prefer to view blossoming Rhododendrons then it is recommended to embark during spring season while on the other hand the autumn season blesses you with crystal clear Himalayan views. Join Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek with Nepal Mountain Trekkers and experience a trek of a lifetime.
