Pokhara: 4-Day Ghorepani, Poonhill & Ghandruk Mountain Trek

1.Pokhara: 4-Day Ghorepani, Poonhill & Ghandruk Mountain Trek

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 132 reviews · 4 days · from $181Our pick

This private 4-day trek takes you from Pokhara to Ulleri, Ghorepani, Poon Hill, and Ghandruk, with a guide, permits, tea-house stays, transport, and optional meals included. Expect rhododendron forests, Gurung villages, simple lodges, and a very early climb to Poon Hill. Guides include Jeet, Santosh, Tanka, Chandra, and others.

“We did the Ghorepani, Poonhill trek at a height of 3210m, for 3 nights and 4 days. Jeet Bhadur Nepali was our guide for the trek, and I would highly recommend him to future travellers. Accomodation and food were also very good value. We found the treks challenged us in the best way, but ultimately they were not very difficult, and thus are perfect for newer hikers who are still looking for a challenge. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience, and will definitely recommend it to friends and family in the future.”

Be prepared for leeches and mosquito's in the rainforest areas. We chose to do the trek in 4 days, without realising that it is usually spread accross 5 or 6 days. This meant that we were arriving at the tea houses quite late, and spending more hours than advertised hiking. We had a misunderstanding that each tea house room charge was included in the booking price, so make sure you bring enoug money to cover this and well as food.…”

Il fait déjà être sportif ou à minima en bonne condition physique. Les paysages sont époustouflants et le guide suit notre rythme (vous pouvez faire autant de pauses que nécessaire) ! Nos chefs cuisiniers étaient excellent, je recommande vivement !!”
