Well-trodden trails through desired woodland and delightful Himalayan settlements of Ghandruk is amusing, certainly formed of several ethnic gatherings. As it consists of the unbelievable attitudinal reach and mild blend of the atmosphere on the foundation of Himalayas, Poon Hill Teahouse Trekking is a naturalist’s heaven. The surrounding views of Dhaulagiri (8167m), Annapurna I (8091m), Machhapuchhre (6993m), Manaslu (8157m), and other various mountains will never get tired to stun you with their majestic presence.

At the destination of our Poon Hill Teahouse Trekking, as the sun touches the snow-capped Himalayan Goliath such as Dhaulagiri and Annapurna alongside a maze of different crests, it gradually starts to show up in the same way as enchantment before eyes, a panorama view of sunrise at the very attire of Himalayas. This is sure to be your compensating trek, after 3 days walk, delighted by everyone who has ever been here. The Poonhill Teahouse Trekking being a short and introductory trek is equally suitable Ghorepani-Poonhill Trekking for a family with youngsters as well.

 

WHO IS BEST SUITED FOR POON HILL TREK?

 

The Poon Hill trek is for those all who have limited time in Nepal but want to experience the Himalayas. the best part is the easiest trekking of all time. One of the trekkers from Hongkong, China revises the short trek as “Great Trek For Anyone With Limited Time”, provided by Nepal Lion Tours & Trek

The trekker says- “I booked the trip the day before my departure and everything ran very smoothly during the trek. My guide Bishnu and the porter “Pikas” (pardon me if I get the name wrong) were both very responsible and heart-warming. They wouldn’t hesitate to offer help when it’s needed and let you trek at your own pace. I have lots of questions about the trek and Nepal during the journey and Bishnu got answers to most of them! The man behind them – Shiva was also a great organizer who was always making sure everything is fine. The airport pick-up service and farewell dinner were a bonus. They also provide sleeping bags and down jackets so that you don’t have to worry about the cold temperature up in the mountains. The experience was amazing overall and I’d recommend you to do trekking in Nepal with Nepal Lion!

Ghandruk is much a cultural hub mingled with picturesque scenery in its background. You can enjoy several things like inside-home cultural museums, tiled roofs, people and their hospitality along with your lunch.
Now it’s only a 3-hour ride in a local bus from Ghandruk to Pokhara leaving several beautiful landscapes and clear-water rivers.

 

LIST YOUR THINGS FOR THIS BEST SHORT TREKKING IN NEPAL

 

We recommend packing light as you will have to carry everything you bring on your back,
that is unless you hire a porter to carry all of your stuff.

The days are warm and climbing all the stairs you will get hot, we recommend wearing athletic pants
and a t-shirt during the day. Bring tons of layers for the evenings, nights, and early mornings including
warm socks!

Also, a good backpack and some minimal gear will be a great comfort. You will also want to bring a refillable water bottle as you will not be able to purchase water bottles on the mountain, instead, you will have to purchase filtered water. If you’re prone to getting hungry be sure to pack some snacks for trekking Poon Hill. You will be able to purchase some on the mountain but they will most likely be candy bars.

We also recommend bringing a head torch or flashlight for the sunrise Poon Hill trek since it’s dark
when you start and it can be a bit dangerous if you can’t see.

 

HOW TO DO THE POON HILL TREK?

 

Being one of the best short trekking in Nepal, you will need to get a start from Kathmandu to Pokhara. You can either take a painfully long bus ride or you can opt for about a 30-minute flight.

 

We recommend staying the night in Pokhara and getting an early start the next day. If you hire a local guide they will arrange your ride. Else, you will have to hire a driver in Pokhara to drop you off.

 

We recommend doing this trek with a local guide, even though you can do the Poon Hill trek on your own but having a local who is an expert with the mountains and route is a total relief. They reassure you to make you well prepared before and during the trek.

 

During peak season the tea houses fill up. But, local guides know the different tea house owners. Above all, they assure you will have a place to sleep before trekking. On the other hand, it will be bad if you are traveling alone. When guest houses are full you may have to trek to another village to find a place to sleep.
