Panoramic Poon Hill Trek
Panoramic Poon Hill trek starts from Nayapul, passes through Ulleri, and pauses at Ghorepani. The walk gets really interesting with the wetland and crossing through dense rhododendron forest from Ulleri to Ghorepani. At Ghorepani, you can relax in chill weather where you can also interact with the Magar(subcaste- Poon) community. The walk is held at Ghorepani for the next day’s spectacular and glorious sunrise. Early morning’s an hour walk up to hill can be strenuous for the time but the priceless and glorious rays of bleak golden Sunrise peeking out from the horizon is worth watching from the top of Poon Hill. Get ready to hold your heart!
Exceptionally, you will witness the 360 degrees (panoramic) view from the top enriched with several snow-clad mountains: Mt.Annapurna I (8.091m) – the 10th highest mountain in the world, Mt.Dhaulagiri (8,167m) – the seventh highest mountain in the world followed by other beautiful Himalayas. After mesmerizing time spent over the hill, the walk descends towards a dense forest pleasing your ears with the birds chirping and cool atmosphere around. The trail concludes at Ghandruk village; One of the largest Gurung settlements with an abundance in culture and hospitality where you can observe museums, traditional culture, and friendly people.
