"Experience the Sunrise of a Lifetime at Poon Hill!"

Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek is a transformational journey in the foothills of Annapurna massifs. Popularized as one of the best vantage points in western Nepal, the trek to Poonhill is filled with adventure and enigma. Poonhill stands at an elevation of 3210 meters in the Myagdi district of west Nepal. Since the inception of trekking back in the '60s, Poonhill trekking has been a sought-after trek in Nepal.

The northern highlands of the Kaski district behold naturalistic magnificence. Poonhill stands as a popular vantage point near Pokhara, a city in Nepal. This is one of the short treks in Nepal, which can be completed within a week. Typically beginning from the serene city of Pokhara, the trek to Poon Hill traverses north.

From the outskirts of Pokhara, your journey takes the Baglung-Pokhara highway and reaches Nayapul. This point of the trek is the starting point. We ascend our way through the Gurung settlements dotted across the to reach Ghorepani. In between Ghorepani and Nayapul lies several villages such as Birethanti (ACAP ) check post, Hile, Tikhedhunga, Ulleri, Banthanti, and Nagethanti. From Nayapul, the trail takes on the deciduous monsoon forests of the Annapurna region.

The 4 Days Poon Hill Trek route portrays distinct variations of vegetation all along. The lower elevation areas of Poonhill trekking are full of dense, lush green forests. As you ascend beyond Ghorepani on your hike to Poon Hill, the area is semi-arid with scattered forests. Ghorepani Poon Hill trek elevation gain ranges from a mere 1070 meters at Nayapul to 3210 meters at Poonhill. This elevation range creates a different atmosphere at every stopover you take. The area surrounding the trail is filled with dense Rhododendron forests from the start until reaching Ghandruk village.

The sunrise view from Poon Hill and Ghorepani has long been appreciated by trekkers from across the world. The morning view of sunrise from Poon Hill provides mesmerizing scenery of sun rays spreading onto the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri masses.
