A highlight of this Poon Hill short trek is the early morning climb from Ghorepani to Nepal’s most visited physical landmark: the grassy summit of Poon Hill (3 210m/10 530ft). It offers magnificent sunrise views that include Dhaulagiri I, Annapurna South, Annapurna I, the fish-tailed peak of sacred Machhapuchhare and Manaslu. The sun rises slowly up the Himalayan horizon and the silhouette of mountains come into the view. Then the outline of valleys, villages and surrounding landscape starts appearing. The moment when golden rays of sun paints the snowy peak is truly magical sight.
Return to your hotel for breakfast before beginning the long, downward walk back to Nayapul. While the altitudes are not excessive, a moderate level of fitness is enough for this short trek to Poon Hill in Annapurna.
If you have more time you may choose Annapurna Base Camp Trek of 15 days to see the Annapurna Himalaya from a close. Landmark Discovery Treks have been regularly operating this Poon Hill short trek for the family members with extended trip to Ghandruk and Dhampus.
