This trek is a wonderful opportunity to witness the beauty of the Annapurna region with a shorter trek. The trip starts just from north of the city Pokhara and winds through the Poon Hill area.

It is also known as short n' sweet trek. Most of these deviations will visit Ghorepani and Ghandruk. Ghorepani is just below the famed vantage point of Poonhill - one of the best spots to see the views of central Nepal Himalayan panorama. This is one of the lower elevation treks that we offer rising to only 3200 m
