What's this trip about?

    "Situated north of Nepal’s famous lake city, Pokhara, this short Poon Hill trek offers secreted wealth of Nepalese culture and natural beauty. Along with the view of mountains, trekkers can equally enjoy the company of cultivated terraces, waterfalls, dense rhododendron and oak forests full of chirping birds and flying butterflies - simply perfect for nature lovers. Moreover, Poon Hill, Ghorepani trek, is also an introduction to the culture, tradition, hospitality, farming practices and lifestyle of different ethnic groups including Gurung and Magar. Poon Hill (the best view point of the entire Annapurna region), Ghandruk (a culturally rich Gurung village included in the world heritage site list), Pokhara (the lake city) and natural hot spring at Jhinu Danda are some major highlights of this trek.
