If you are on a short trip to Pokhara and want to unleash the adventurer in you without overspending, the Ghorepani-Poon Hill trek is just for you. It takes you along the ‘salt-trade route' of ancient times and through the unspoiled countryside of diverse communities.
In the five days of this journey led by expert and professional guides, you will get to explore beyond your expectations. It has been designed specially for tourists so that they can get the real feel of Nepalese culture, savour the beauty of Nepal's landscapes and witness the biodiversity within. However, it is becoming equally popular among Nepalese youths too.
The best part of this trek is that it is a part of the Annapurna Circuit trek and hence will be able to see several snow-capped peaks of three different mountain ranges, including the most gorgeous Mount Fishtail (a.k.a Machhapuchhre in Nepali). Depending upon your own preferences, it can also be customised, whereupon the actual cost may vary slightly.
