 About Trip 
The Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek
is Nepal's most popular short and simple hiking Trek. This walk takes place in the magnificent Annapurna region, which provides stunning vistas of verdant landscapes and snow-capped mountains throughout the journey. You'll also have the opportunity to learn about the Gurung, Magar, and Thakali cultures and traditions.
From the famous Poon Hill viewpoint and the lovely Gurung Village of Ghandruk, this adventurous trek is known for stunning vistas of the Annapurna Himalayan range. This is a moderate hike because the highest point is only 3,210 meters. This trek can be completed by anyone in excellent health.

Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek in March to May-Spring and September to November-Autumn are the best time of year trekking in Ghorepani Poon Hill. So we call it a four season trekking in Nepal. Ghorepani Poon Hill trek in winter season also possible,but the cold temperature might not be suitable for everyone. Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek 6 Days Itinerary takes you to the most popular view point Poon Hill at 3200. This is a great short trip to see up close Himalayan range with sunrise. We hike through the villages of ethnic Gurung and Magar tribes.
