Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek, also known as the Annapurna Sunrise Trek, is a popular and relatively easy trek in the Annapurna region of Nepal. This trek offers stunning mountain views, a glimpse into the local culture, and an opportunity to witness a mesmerizing sunrise over the Himalayas from Poon Hill. Here is a detailed overview of the Ghorepani Poon Hill Sunrise Trek:
The trek begins with a scenic drive from Pokhara to Nayapul, a small town that serves as the starting point of the trek. From Nayapul, you commence your trek, following the trail through picturesque villages, terraced fields, and lush forests.
The trek takes you through charming villages such as Tikhedhunga and Ulleri, where you can experience the local culture and hospitality of the Gurung and Magar communities. The trail is adorned with beautiful rhododendron forests, especially vibrant during the spring season.
The highlight of the trek is reaching Ghorepani, a traditional village located at an altitude of 2,850 meters. From Ghorepani, you wake up early the next morning to hike up to Poon Hill (3,210 meters). As the first rays of the sun touch the snow-capped peaks, you are treated to a breathtaking sunrise over the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri mountain ranges. The panoramic views from Poon Hill are truly awe-inspiring and a photographer's paradise.
After the sunrise experience, you trek back to Ghorepani for breakfast and continue your journey. The trail then leads you to Tadapani, another picturesque village nestled amidst forests of rhododendrons and oak trees. Enjoy the serene surroundings and stunning mountain views from Tadapani.
From Tadapani, the trek takes you through forests, terraced fields, and charming villages. You pass through Ghandruk, a large Gurung village known for its rich culture and traditional houses. Explore the village and interact with the friendly locals, gaining insights into their way of life.
The final stretch of the trek descends to Nayapul, where you board a vehicle and return to Pokhara. Spend some time in Pokhara, relaxing by the beautiful lakeside and reflecting on the incredible journey you've undertaken.

我在爬poon hill 時恰巧身體不適，吐了三天，拉了四天。 但由於有Basu的照顧，盡力讓我保持溫暖，努力找尋我能入口的食物，一步一腳印陪著我走，讓我最終還是可以順利爬到Poon hill 頂端！！ 真的很謝謝他還有他老婆的幫忙
