Poon Hill Himalayan Trek: Trek challenge to Nepal

Poon Hill Himalayan Trek

The Himalayas provide an awe-inspiring backdrop for this challenging expedition. The itinerary crosses the Annapurna region, home to Nepal’s most scenic and popular trekking routes. As the adventure progresses, we pass from lush subtropical vegetation into pristine high alpine forests, passing through traditional villages and farms along the way. Once at the top of Poon Hill, take in the splendour of Annapurna’s natural amphitheatre of snowy peaks, including the Annapurna South, Gangapurna and the Annapurna-Dhaulagiri massif.
