Ghorepani trekking is the most easy trekking in the Annapurna region. The trip is short and a wonderful trip. Trekkers do not need to think much, plan much and expense much time in this trekking. The worth of the Ghorepani Trekking lies on the splendid Himalayan sceneries along with pretty ethnic communities. The trekkers get the hidden treasure of distinct customs, tradition and culture. The diverse landscape, flora and fauna, various ascending and descending are the extra attractions of the trek to Poonhill.
Situated in the Annapurna Conservation Area Project, trekkers walk through the Oak forest full of birds, green hills and mixed valleys. Unlike other trekking in this region, the trekkers do not have any risk of getting altitude sickness. Starting from the Nayapul, the trek follows the ridge of beautiful Modi Khola. Then it crosses the Gurung villages and rice fields. It is a steep climb to Ulleri and walk through the rhododendron and oak forest to the Ghorepani. The early morning hike up to Poon hill is wonderful and you can see the Himalayan views of Dhaulagiri, Annapurna, Nilgiri, Fishtail, Mansalu, Lamjung, Chulu peak and the beautiful green hill vistas of the surrounding areas. The trek then heads to Tadapani again through the rhododendron forest. If you come in spring to trek here, you do not want to return to anywhere and desired to stay longer. The whole forest becomes colorful. Ghandruk, another beautiful village is also known as the village of Gurkhas. The costumes and culture of the local people are fabulous. Then the trip drives to Pokhara via Nayapul.
