The Annapurna Base Camp (ABC) Trek via Ghorepani Poon Hill is an incredible journey for those looking to experience diverse landscapes, rich cultures, and breathtaking Himalayan views. This trek takes you through lush forests, terraced farmlands, and traditional Gurung and Magar villages, offering a unique cultural experience. Along the way, you will have the opportunity to explore the traditions, lifestyle, and hospitality of the Gurung and Magar communities.
The main highlight of this trek is Mt. Annapurna (8,091m), the 10th highest mountain in the world, along with the stunning Mt. Machhapuchhre (6,997m), also known as “Fishtail Mountain”, considered sacred by the locals. If you visit during festival seasons, you may get the chance to celebrate with the locals, enjoying their traditional dances, songs, food, and drinks.
This trek is perfect for those who wish to witness a spectacular Himalayan panorama without going to extreme altitudes. Poon Hill (3,200m) is a fantastic vantage point to witness a breathtaking sunrise over the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges. From here, you can see Mt. Dhaulagiri I, II, and III, Annapurna South, Annapurna II and III, Mt. Nilgiri, Mt. Machhapuchhre, Lamjung Himal, and peaks like Dhampus and Tukuche. The climb to Poon Hill also helps with acclimatization, ensuring a smoother journey to Annapurna Base Camp (4,130m).
