Overview
Ghorepani-Poon Hill Trek is the gateway trek to walking in the Nepal Himalayas. It shows you enough, but just enough to make you want to come back. In the lower stretches, it treats you with Gurung and Magar hospitality. It also takes you through one of the lushest forests teeming with rhododendrons and diverse wildlife. In a couple of days, you will effortlessly glide to a level of serenity that only comes from living close to nature. The high point, both literally and figuratively, is Poon Hill. Rather than thinking of Poon Hill as a hilltop with a good view, it is advisable to think of it as a menu, serving ideas for your next trek.
