This is a short and light hike, that gives you a very good impression of the Himalayas.
Passing through typical villages, rice terraces, rhododendron forests and through rocky areas. The sunrise at Poon Hill is the highlight of this trek, which shows a fantastic view over the highest peaks in a red glow if the weather is good.

This trek is also possible with children because of the relatively short walking distances. If there is a problem on the way, there is always the possibility to manage a porter or horse because never very far away from the Nepalese villages.

If required, we can cater for you to have a longer stay in Pokhara before or after the trek, or travel to another place from Pokhara.

This trek can be done in 9 days as well with some extra places to enjoy. Feel free to contact us for more information.
