Hiring A Guide For Poonhill Trek

Starting from April 1st, 2023, all international trekkers who wish to hike in Nepal must hire a licensed guide, rendering independent trekking no longer permissible. This new regulation presents two options for trekkers; hiring a guide upon arrival in Nepal, ensuring the person is licensed and reliable, or booking a trek through a company in advance. If opting for the latter, the company will plan the entire trip, including transportation and guide arrangement. Although we lack personal experience with company-assisted trekking in Nepal, we’ve identified a couple of highly-rated tours that may be worth considering.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is it safe to trek to Ghorepani Poonhill Trek in Nepal?

Yes, it is completely safe to trek to Ghorepani Poonhill Trek in Nepal. However, in every trek in Nepal should be done in presence of a guide, this one is no different. Take a professional guide with you and you should be good.

Can I charge my phone and camera during Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek?

Which trekking permits are compulsory during Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek?

What is the elevation of Poon Hill?

How difficult is Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek in Nepal?

Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek is among the easier trek in Nepal. The trek is short, and you don’t have to climb very high altitudes, so the risk of altitude sickness is minimal. Anyone from beginner to veteran can complete Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek, and you also don’t need any training or prior mountain climbing experience.

What is the average Ghorepani Poon Hill trek cost?

The best time to trek to Poon Hill and Ghorepani in Nepal is Spring and August season. Months from March to May fall in the Spring season, whereas months from September to November fall in August.

These two seasons favor any Nepal trek due to the appropriate weather conditions and temperature. The clear skies and mountain scenery make it a great place to take amazing photos of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges.

During Spring and Autumn, the vegetation and forests are also green, making trekking a fun adventure. In Spring, you will be trekking alongside the blooming and beautiful rhododendron flower, which makes your trek cherry on top of a tasty cake.

Since Spring and Autumn are considered the best time for Ghorepani Poon Hill Trekking, the Monsoon and winter season are not considered as ideal time. During Monsoon season, the trails become wet and slippery due to relentless trekking. There is also the risk of landslides and floods during monsoons.

Although the winter season is also considered not ideal for trekking, it doesn’t primarily affect Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek. The cold weather, changing conditions, and high altitude can make the trek harder, even though many think it’s easy. In winter, the snowy hills, valleys, and empty landscapes still look beautiful and peaceful.

Nevertheless, the winter season is not as fun and beautiful as trekking in either the Spring or Autumn season.

You need two permits to be eligible for Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek:

Annapurna Conservation Area Permit (ACAP)

ACAP, or Annapurna Conservation Permit, is an essential permit to be eligible to trek the Annapurna region. You can issue the ACAP either in Kathmandu or in Pokhara. You must pay Nrs 3,000 or approximately $30 to get your hands on ACAP.

Trekker Information Management System (TIMS)

Another permit that you need to be eligible for your Poon Hill trek is the TIMS card. The charges of TIMS for SAARC (Citizens of South Asian countries) country applicants are NPR 1,000, while for non-SAARC applicants, the charges are NPR 2,000. You can issue the TIMS card to the Nepal Tourism Board in Pradarshini Marg in Kathmandu.

When you arrive in Kathmandu and Pokhara, you will check in either a three- or five-star hotel. These three-star hotels and expensive lodges provide luxury services, such as private rooms, single beds, and hot showers, without charging extra.

Throughout your Poon Hill trek from Pokhara, you will come across various budgeted hotels, lodges, and tea houses.

In remote trekking areas, accommodations tend to be essential. However, on the Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek, most teahouses offer decent rooms with twin beds, and some even have attached bathrooms. Yet, mainly during an overcrowded trek, you’ll only get a room with shared bathrooms.

As this trek is often advertised as easy and less stressful, people usually neglect health and safety. Altitude sickness is a significant factor affecting substantial health and safety risks.

Altitude sickness is the kind of illness that arises when you start climbing altitudes over 3000m. Three types of Altitude Sickness are possible during your trek: Acute Mountain Sickness, High Altitude Pulmonary Edema, and High Altitude Cerebral Edema.

Acute Mountain Sickness is not as severe as HAPE and HACE. So let’s get to learn more about them.

Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS)

One of the most common types of Altitude sickness is Acute Mountain Sickness. The chances of acute mountain sickness arise every time you climb an altitude of over 3000m. This is also the most common type of altitude sickness that you’ll likely suffer from during your excursion at a higher altitude.

AMS Symptoms

It is essential to find out immediately if you suffer from Acute Mountain Sickness. You can check out its symptoms to see if you or anyone in your group suffers from the sickness.

Bleeding from the nose
Dislike eating.
Nausea and vomiting,
Body tingling
Being tired and lazy,
Upon exertion, shortness of breath,
Dizziness
Headaches

High Altitude Pulmonary Edema (HAPE)

High-altitude Pulmonary Edema is another form of altitude sickness but is way more severe than Acute Mountain sickness. Unlike ACM, HAPE can be life-threatening as it affects the lungs of the victim very seriously.

The primary symptoms of HAPE are:

Coughing up pink or bloody mucus
Severe Shortness of Breath
Swollen lungs
Extreme Fatigue
Rapid Heartbeat Rate

Keep in mind HAPE can happen to anyone at any time, even if they are generally healthy. You don’t need any medical history to suffer from HAPE, so when you suffer from it, be quick to get medical attention.

High Altitude Cerebral Edema (HACE)

Another severe type of Altitude Sickness is High Altitude Edema. The significant difference between HACE and HAPE is that HACE affects the victim’s brain. It is even more dangerous than HAPE and can threaten the victim’s life even more quickly than the other two types of Altitude Sickness.

The primary symptoms of HACE are:

Severe Headache
Confusion and Disorientation
Extreme Dizziness
Hallucinations
Swollen Brain
Continuous Blood from Nose and Ear
Nausea and Vomiting
Faint and Coma

HACE can develop very quickly, and it mainly affects patients who have had previous HACE conditions. You must immediately seek medical assistance if you think you have the symptoms of HACE.

Gradual Ascent

The best way to prevent altitude sickness is to ascend and descend during your trek gradually. Since the oxygen level is thinner at higher altitudes, your body must adjust to the decreasing oxygen level. So, you must not aggressively climb the altitude without resting or acclimating to the climate or oxygen level.

Stay Hydrated

Dehydration is another major cause of altitude sickness. If your body is dehydrated, the symptoms of your acute mountain sickness worsen. The possibility of being dehydrated at higher altitudes is also extremely high.

Since the air is dry in that area, you will lose body fluids when you respire. You don’t feel you are losing water from your body, which could result in being dehydrated, so make sure to drink plenty of fluids during your Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek.

Diet

It is crucial to be healthy to prevent Altitude Sickness. Eat plenty of foods that provide your body with protein, carbohydrates, and fiber. Grains, rice, wheat, bread, vegetables, and fruits are crucial for energy during your trek.

However, during your trek, avoid taking meat, especially at higher altitudes. In higher altitudes, the meats of domestic animals are not cooked properly, so eating uncooked meat might deteriorate your health and make you ill.

Medication

Medicine like Diamox and Acetazolamide are best for providing instant relief from the symptoms of altitude sickness. Some might act as a complete cure, but others will act as pain relievers, so you’ll have plenty of time to decrease your altitude. After lowering altitude, your body might start to feel better, but if not, visit the doctor immediately.

Avoid Overexertion

Overexertion is the condition of being extremely tired. If you push your body extremely hard, it might suffer from overexertion. Overexertion at high altitudes can be extremely dangerous and lead to altitude sickness.

The primary way to prevent Overexertion during your trek is to take frequent breaks between your treks. To avoid overexertion at a higher altitude, you must relax your body and avoid any challenging activity.

Building physical stamina and endurance levels before trek can also prevent over-exhaustion. So, various simple activities like swimming, walking, running, or climbing staircases for half to one hour a day can build your physical stamina, which will help you during your trekking and mountain climbing adventure.

Descend if Symptoms Persist

If you suffer from Acute Mountain Sickness and medication doesn’t help, then it is wise to descend your altitude. Lowering your altitude sometimes relaxes your body and enables you to recover from altitude sickness.

If you descend to 2000m altitude, oxygen levels rise, making breathing easier and circulating your blood flow regularly. Sometimes, descending the altitude may not be enough, and you might need further medical attention

Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek is one of the most beautiful trek in Nepal. The trek starts with the drive to Bandipur and then towards the majestic city of Pokhara.

The 6-day Poon Hill Trek takes you to mesmerizing Ghorepani and hikes to Poon Hill, where you can see beautiful views of sunrise, sunset, and 360-degree mountain views.

The short, easy, and beautiful trek is what makes the Ghorepani Poon Hill trek stand among itself. Despite not being a commercial trek, its popularity has increased.

The Best Trek I Ever Had

This was one of the best trekking trips I’ve had in a long time. Nepal is truly a beautiful place. We picked Ghorepani because we only had two weeks, and it turned out to be a really nice choice. Big thanks to CoreTreks for helping us make this happen. Their team guided us so well and took care of everything. I’m really glad we found them.

Beautiful Memories With Beautiful People

Trekking to Ghorepani Poon Hill was an experience I’ll never forget. The views were beautiful, and the people were even better. Everyone we met was so kind and friendly. We walked about 4-5 hours each day. It was a bit tough, but we made such good memories. Big thanks to our guides and porters for helping us the whole way. Special thanks to CoreTreks for planning everything so well. I really love Nepal and can’t wait to come back.

Experience Of A Lifetime

We were a group of 5 but still had an amazing journey to Poonhill and back. The trekking did not feel long because we were accompanied by our guides from CoreTreks. They were amazing and told us a lot of funny stories of their past. They are really hard working people and deserve a lot more credit than they do. Once again thanks CoreTreks for making this trip possible and handling our group so efficiently.

 Verified Langtang Valley Trek Adventure In April 2026 we went trekking in the Langtang Valley and towards Yala peak with Core Trek Pvt Ltd. The trek was very well thought out and organised. We were new to trekking and walking at altitude and the planning of transfers, days, walking distances and altitudes was well designed by Coretreks staff. After arriving and spending one night in Kathmandu we departed on a private jeep trip to Syabrubesi. We were accompanied by Trekking Guide Dibash Pudasaini and Porter Pukar Bhatta, two very friendly Nepalese with good English. From Syabrubesi we walked in three days up the Langtang Valley to Kyanjin Gompa, with overnights in Lama Hotel and Langtang Village. On the next two acclimatisation days we walked to Kyanjin Ri and upstream along the Langtang River through the glacial outwash plains towards the direction of Langshiska Kharka. The following day we went with the mountain guide Jhandu Lama and Dibash to the Yala Base Camp, where we hit snow on the last 500m before the small base hut. We crawled into the sleeping backs early, then got up at 2:30 am for an alpine start to the day and went with crampons and headlights uphill on the frozen snow surface. Our pace got slower and slower until we reached the flat area on ice 120m below Yala peak around 7:30 am. The view now opened towards the east and was amazing. At this altitude of 5400m we had reached our limit of breathing enough air in and decided to descend. No altitude sickness. We stopped on the way down briefly at the basecamp and then continued down to Kyanjin Gompa. Next day we did a long downhill walk to Lama Hotel, then a half day walk to Syabrubesi where the private jeep waited to bring us back to Kathmandu. On the trek we saw wild monkeys, deer, tahr, eagles, lammergeier and many other birds. Time in Kathmandu was spend sightseeing, shopping and relaxing with nice food and beverages. Our guides from Coretreks brought us out to a fantastic dinner with great Nepalese food and traditional dancing. We can highly recommend Coretreks and their guides for trekking and peak climbing, they are very knowledgeable about trekking, geography and wildlife. They are friendly and communicate well which is important on treks that can get exhausting and tiring at times. The nice hotels, teahouses, food, supplies, sightseeing, jeeps and airport taxis were well organised by Coretreks and gave us a unique experience in Nepal.

 Verified More than a trek – My Annapurna Circuit Experience The "Annapurna Circuit Trek including Tilicho Lake" journey was one of the most incredible experiences of my life. The 15-day tour starting and ending in Kathmandu was definitely challenging — many steep ascents in a short amount of time, icy sections, and the thin air at high altitude push you physically and mentally. At the same time, every single day rewards you with unforgettable impressions and breathtaking scenery. I especially want to highlight the outstanding organization by CoreTrek. Even before the trek started, communication was excellent. Individual requests were handled quickly, flexibly, and in a very solution-oriented way. I always felt honestly advised about what was realistic and what was not, which created a lot of trust from the beginning. On the trek itself, my guide Aga Kami and my porter Sudip were absolutely fantastic. Both were incredibly friendly, supportive, experienced, and attentive throughout the entire journey. In such demanding conditions at high altitude, having people like them around gives you a huge sense of confidence and security. Aga Kami guided the route perfectly, always knew how to adapt the pace to the situation, and shared his experience in a calm and professional way. Sudip also did an amazing job and made every day more enjoyable with his positive attitude and constant support. The trek would not have been the same without them. The absolute highlight was crossing the Thorong La Pass. It is one of those moments that feels surreal — a combination of exhaustion, pride, and overwhelming beauty that is difficult to describe in words. In general, the scenery throughout the trek was simply spectacular. I was there in November and had perfect weather the entire time: deep blue skies, crystal-clear visibility, sunshine, and only light winds. This season is ideal for the Annapurna region because the air is dry and stable, creating stunning panoramic views of snow-covered Himalayan peaks almost every day. Another big surprise was the food and accommodation situation. Even in remote mountain villages, the variety and quality of the food were far better than I expected. I was also surprised by how widely available internet access was throughout the trek. Of course, the lodges become more basic and rustic the higher you go, but considering the environment and altitude, they were still surprisingly comfortable. Honestly, there was nothing during the trek that really disappointed or bothered me. Looking back, what remains most is the feeling afterward: pride, gratitude, and inner peace. Some experiences take weeks or even months to fully process and appreciate. For me, this trek was not only a physical adventure but also a mental reset. I was able to completely disconnect, clear my mind, and reconnect with myself. I would highly recommend this trek to adventurous and physically active travelers looking for an authentic, challenging, and deeply rewarding experience.

 Verified The most kind, helpful and fun team! I had a pleasure of going to Langtang Valley with CoreTreks team and they are the best. Very friendly, kind, helpful and professional. All the guys were so dedicated to their work and always with a smile on their face. Respecful but also funny with a good sense of humour. I would definitely recommend trekking with them. They know what they are doing and you can feel safe with them. if i come back to Nepal and want to go to the mountains again- I will definitely contact Nim and his team. Thank you very much! 🙏🏻🙌🏻

 Verified THANK YOU CORETREKS ! When it comes to chose a trekking compagny, it's a roll of dice. Choosing Coretreks was such a blessing! Human oriented compagny! They gave me different trek options and I was glad because I ended going for something different than my first idea was and I am so happy with it. The prices are good too. I decided to go with Everest Base Camp, Island Peak and Ama Dablam summits for a total of around 1 month trip. I felt very safe with the trek and climbing guide and had fast answer from owners when I had questions. Honestly, everything was better than expected, I recommand Coretreks to everyone! I will come back FOR SURE! They make your dreams come true, don't wait!🙏🏼

 Verified Randonnée Népal Amazing experience! I did the mardi himal trek and it was absolutly stunning. Nim, the founder of coretrek, made sure everything was set perfectly for me before, during and after the trek. He was disponible, kind, caring and really helpful. He made me feel like home and secure as soon as i landed in Nepal. I did my trek with Gorakh and Sudeep and they were always looking to make sure i was ok. They were funny, profesionnal and it was a true pleasure to be with them and share this wonderful moment. I recommand Nim and his team without hesitation, their love of mountains is pure and contagious !

 Verified Great experience ABC TREK Thank you so much for putting together such an amazing trip for us. Every detail was perfectly handled, which made it easy for us to just enjoy the experience and take in the beauty around us. A big thank you to our guide Athma Rama and porter Krishan — their energy, knowledge, and kindness made the journey truly special. They didn’t just guide us, they made us feel comfortable, inspired, and connected throughout the trip.
