Nepal · POON HILL TREK

The 15 Best Ghorepani and Poon Hill Treks

36 tours  ·  ★★★★★★★★★★ 4.9 average  ·  from $103

Poon Hill tops out at 3,210 m, which is why this is the trek that fits into a normal holiday. The 15 below run three to five days out of Pokhara; the differences are the start point, whether Ghandruk is included, and how early the sunrise climb begins.

“I did the Ghorepani, Poonhill and Ghandruk trek and it was absolutely incredible. My guide Bhadrapur Neali could not have been better. He was so supportive and kind to every single one of us during the trek and we had so much fun. The tour itself for me was completely new and I was able to completely disconnect during my time on the trek. My guide made the experience very enjoyable and was able to make us laugh during the trek - I am so grateful for Bhadrapur and the trek itself. I will leave the trek with so many amazing memories - thank you so much!”

Food was delicious everywhere we stopped and people in general are very friendly.”

“Our 4-day trek was hampered by weather although we managed to sporadically have amazing views of the Himalayas. The trip was an unforgettable experience and a true test of endurance not for the faint of heart. Our guide Padam and porter Jagan were terrific and very accommodating to our needs. Their local knowledge of the area and mountains was truly an asset to our experience. I would highly recommend both Padam and Jagan to others looking to trek all over Nepal.”

He knows everyone and everything about this part of the world and I highly recommend not only this tour but him as a guide in particular. He will show you the heartwarming side of the Nepalese people, find you the best accommodation and the most delicious Nepalese food while trekking. He's a character with a great sense of humour you don't want to miss on your Nepal adventure. We will miss him a lot and we can't wait to come back to have him as our friend and guide again :)”

“This was a once in a life time experience! I can’t believe we actually trekked in the Himalayas, and it is all thanks to our guide Deepist and our porter Rom, we couldn’t not have done it without them. The trek was challenging at times (3,500 stairs in day one!) but the beautiful of Nepal and the hospitality of everyone we meet made it worth it. Do hesitate to book this, if you have any interest at trekking, this is a no brainer.”
