Trekking Short Description:
Ghorepani
Poon Hill Trekking allows you to enjoy best
sun rise and sun set view over Dhaulagiri Range.
This place is rich of hidden treasure of Nepalese
culture and tradition. It starts from Pokhara
through beautiful rhododendron (Nepal's national
flower) forest. It enables you to have a lovely
view of green hills, Mt. Dhaulagiri (8,167m), Himalchuli (7892m), Gangapurna (7455m), Machhapuchhre (6997m), Annapurna South
(7219m), Annapurna I, II, III, IV (8091m, 7937m, 7555m, 7525m), Mardi Himal (5555m) and Lamjung Himal (6983m). This trek offers
you a chance to have a close look at the culture
and day-to-day life of the Gurung and Magar
people, who contributed to the famous Gurkha
army. The Ghorepani Poon Hill trek combined
with a two days of elephant back safari in
the tropical Chitwan national park (5 hr of
drive from Pokhara) makes an ideal Nepal holiday.
You see a great number of wild animals and
birds including rhinos, crocodiles, deer, peacocks,
leopards and if lucky even a tiger. You will
enjoy a canoe ride in Rapti River, visit baby
elephants in elephant breeding centre and the
safari trip will conclude with a bird watching
tour- Chitwan national park alone has
450 species of birds.
