Looking for a short yet unforgettable Himalayan escape? The Ghorepani Poonhill trek is one of Nepal’s best-loved routes for those with limited time but big dreams of mountain vistas. The journey winds through the verdant valleys and rhododendron forests of the Kaski district, offering ever-changing views as you ascend from 1,070m to the 3,210m summit of Poonhill.

Trekkers are rewarded with breathtaking sunrises over Dhaulagiri and Annapurna, as the Himalayan giants are bathed in golden light. Along the way, you’ll experience the charm of Gurung villages and the pristine wilderness below the Annapurna range, all while enjoying a manageable trek suitable for most fitness levels.
