Ghorepani Poon Hill Sunrise view Trek- 5 Days

<p>The Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek begins today after we pick you up from your hotel or designated meeting point. The flight is the luxury option as you get to enjoy the bird’s eye views of Nepal and the Himalayas from the comfort of the airplane. Moreover, you will arrive at Pokhara in just half an hour and have the rest of the day in leisure. However, budget constraints can be an issue. So our standard option is the drive via Prithvi Highway on a suitable vehicle; tourist bus or jeep depending on group size. This is also the better way to get firsthand experience of the Nepali terrain and landscape before you begin the actual trekking. We will explore the lakeside and chill in the evening.</p><p>Accommodation – Hotel, Meals – Dinner</p>

<p>We will head out after breakfast and have a short drive of 1-2 hours to Nayapul at first. Both local transport as well as private ones are available for this popular route. From here, the trek finally starts as we make gentle ascents through the lush green hills and charming villages. We will pass through Tikhedhunga and Birethanti on our way and arrive at Ulleri around the afternoon.</p><p>Accommodation – Lodge, Meals – Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner</p>

<p>In similar fashion as yesterday, our trek begins after some warm breakfast at the lodge. The trail today passes through some particularly beautiful forests of rhododendron that eventually lead to pleasant views of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges as well. Passing through Banthanti and Nagthanti, we will reach the Gurung/Magar village of Ghorepani in just a few hours. From here, the hike up to Poon Hill ridge is a fairly short and easy one but it is generally recommended to save this experience for the next morning in order to savor it to the max.</p><p>Accommodation – Lodge, Meals – Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner</p>

<p>As the main day of our trek, the adventure begins early in the morning as we hike up to Poon Hill ridge in the dark. Use trekking sticks and head lamps today if necessary as trekking in the dark can be somewhat dangerous if you’re not careful. In just about an hour, we will reach the viewpoint at the top of Poon Hill (3,210m). Renowned as one of the best viewpoints in the Annapurna region as well as throughout Nepal, you can witness a magnificent panorama of Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, Nilgiri, Machhapuchhare, Tukuche, Dhampus, Baraha and more.</p><p>Take all the time you need to savor the heavenly view and take some memorable pictures before heading back down to the lodge at Ghorepani. After breakfast, the usual routine resumes and we head out for a long day of trekking to Ghandruk. Ghandruk is a famous Gurung village with one of the largest Gurung populations in Nepal. In the evening, you can stop at the Ghandruk Cultural Museum for a quick tour and introduction to the local culture, traditions, history and lifestyle.</p><p>Accommodation – Lodge, Meals – Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner</p>

<p>The Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek is finally over. Trekking from Ghandruk to Nayapul is an option but we will take the easier route by taking a jeep directly back to Pokhara. Once at Pokhara, we will drop you off at your hotel or the airport depending on your schedule. We hope that your time with Mountain Layers Treks has been a good one and wish you farewell!</p><p>Accommodation – Hotel, Meals – Breakfast</p>
