“I had a wonderful time doing the 3 day trek to Poon Hill. First day is a good challenge with the 3000+ steps leading to Ulleri. The views were just beautiful. I had a wonderful guide, Sabin, I would recommend 100%. He’s very attentive, knowlageable, and goes at your own pace.”

“Our guide Milan and our porter Krishnan were so friendly, loving and caring. It was our first trek ever, it would have been really hard for them to tolerate our slow pace but they managed it very well. We couldn’t see the mountains from Poon hill as it was cloudy and rainy most of the time. Still trekking in the rain was a wonderful experience.”

Review of the 2-day Poon Hill trek from Pokhara, with sunrise views, rhododendron forests, guide details, costs, transport, and practical tips.
“I had an amazing time on the trek. It’s a relatively easy trek (about 3 hours on the way up with plenty of breaks and another 45 min to get to Poon Hill) but the view at the top is out of this world! The road to get to the starting point of the hike is not for the faint of heart but it’s absolutely worth it. Watching the sun rise on Poon Hill was a real highlight of my 2-week trip in Nepal. My guide Biru was great; helpful, nice and took amazing pictures of me! He was so patient with pictures!”

“110% recommendation! ;) Welcome Nepal Treks offered me just a perfect experience to Poon Hill! Tanka Dahal was my guide and being together with him these days was like a personal friend is showing you every lovely highlight in his place. Nature was just great, Tanka was more than helpful and knew to answer really all of my questions. ;) Due to 15+ years of experience as a guide in this region he made this trip extra special, 'cause he knew all the best places for food & accommodation. And the service he offered me on each day and in each accommodation in addition was unbeatable. 1000 thanks!”
