The Poon Hill Trek is one of Nepal's most popular short treks, offering breathtaking views of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri mountain ranges. It's an ideal trek for beginners, families, and those looking for a relatively easy yet rewarding Himalayan experience.

An unforgettable experience with exceptional care from the organizer. Every detail was thoughtfully arranged. Our guide was polite and not only explained the route but also shared insights about Nepalese culture. And, of course, I witnessed breathtaking views of Nepal’s majestic eight-thousanders and walked through an ancient, beautiful forest. Huge thanks to the organizers!

I had an incredible experience trekking to Poon Hill from Pokhara with Dadhi as my guide. His knowledge of the trail, local culture, and the best viewpoints made the trek unforgettable. Dadhi ensured everything was well-organized, from comfortable tea houses to smooth pacing for the hike. The sunrise view from Poon Hill was breathtaking, and his cheerful attitude added to the joy of the journey. Highly recommend both the trek and Dadhi's guiding services!

I recently completed the Poon Hill Trek, and Sagar from My dream Adventure made the entire experience seamless and enjoyable. The itinerary was well-planned, and Sham ensured everything ran smoothly from start to finish. The teahouses were comfortable, and the trek itself offered stunning sunrise views over the Annapurna range. Highly recommended!
