Chasing the world’s most beautiful sunrise?
The Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek in Nepal takes you through rhododendron forests, mountain villages, and ends with a 3,210m Himalayan sunrise you’ll never forget.
Beginner-friendly. 2–8 days. Life-changing views.
The Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek is one of Nepal’s most beloved short treks, blending natural beauty, cultural encounters, and unforgettable Himalayan panoramas. Located in the Annapurna region, this trek is accessible, beginner-friendly, and perfect for travelers short on time but eager for a truly rewarding mountain experience. Your journey begins in Pokhara, where the trail winds through lush rhododendron forests, terraced hillsides, and charming Gurung and Magar villages such as Ghorepani and Ghandruk. Along the way, you’ll pass traditional stone houses, meet locals in colorful attire, and experience the warm hospitality that makes trekking in Nepal so unique. The highlight is reaching Poon Hill (3,210 m) before sunrise. As dawn breaks, the snow-capped peaks of Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, Machhapuchhre (Fishtail), and many others light up in shades of gold, pink, and crimson — a 360-degree Himalayan spectacle that leaves even seasoned trekkers in awe. With flexible itineraries ranging from 2 to 8 days, the trek is adaptable to your schedule and fitness level. It’s considered moderate in difficulty, making it ideal for first-time trekkers and families, yet still rewarding for experienced hikers. The total distance is about 30–40 km, with daily walks of 4–6 hours. Best seasons are spring (March–May), when rhododendrons bloom, and autumn (September–November), when skies are crystal clear. Costs vary, but a 4-day guided trek averages $300–$400. Whether solo or guided, the Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek promises life-changing views and cultural immersion in just a few days.
