Nepal Calls You

Poon Hill Trek is one of the shortest treks in Nepal that gives visitors everything except, of course, the alpine climate. The short, usually 3-4 days trek, takes you past the scenic valley of Pokhara to the quaint, rustic villages settled primarily by Gurungs and Magars ethnic communities; trekking along the pristine Modi and Budhigandaki rivers through the beautiful rhododendron and magnolia forests. The kind and genial native folks, with their peculiar culture and exquisite hospitality, render you to a euphoric state, heightened further by the majestic backdrop of the snow-clad Himalayan mountains of unparallel beauty.

Poon Hill trek is one of the best getaways in Nepal ideal for the people who are short on time, in particular. One of the best-known places for the view of both sunrise and sunset, it is visited in thousands every year. And although it might not gift the visitors the famous Nepalese alpine experience, the natural and cultural beauty that it does provide absolutely makes up for it. Suffice it to say, the trek is a complete package for anyone who craves for both the nature and culture in their journey.
