Itinerary

Looking for a Himalayan adventure that’s as breathtaking as it is accessible? The Poonhill trek is crafted for seniors and families seeking a memorable journey through Nepal’s most iconic panoramas. Starting in Pokhara, this tour leads you along gentle trails through charming villages and lush forests, ascending gradually to a maximum altitude of 3,210 meters.

The trek’s highlight is the early morning ascent to Poonhill, where a spectacular sunrise reveals the entire Himalayan range in all its majesty, with Mt. Dhaulagiri (8,167m) and Annapurna I (8,091m) glowing in the morning light. Along the way, you’ll traverse the famed 3,000 stone steps to Ghorepani and wander through enchanting rhododendron forests, pausing to take in the dramatic views of Machapuchhre (Fishtail), Annapurna South, and Gangapurna.

This trek isn’t just about the scenery; it’s also about the experience. You’ll unwind in hot springs, explore inviting villages, and fly back to Pokhara after your adventure. The route is designed with comfort in mind, making it achievable for anyone with reasonable fitness and a love for the outdoors.

The unique selling point here is the combination of awe-inspiring mountain vistas and a route that remains accessible and enjoyable for seniors, families, and first-time trekkers alike. If you’re dreaming of Himalayan magic without strenuous demands, this is the trip for you.
