The booking deposit (25% of the total) remains non-refundable in that scenario. Cancellation must be sent in writing; the cancellation date is the date written notice is received.

The pre-dawn walk to Poon Hill is the centrepiece: Annapurna and Dhaulagiri catching first light. Ulleri’s stone staircase, Ghorepani’s dining room, and the dark walk to Poon Hill are the three days people book. Gurung villages, Magar hospitality, and teahouse dining rooms fill the rest of the days. You walk out to Nayapul and return to lakeside Pokhara the same afternoon. Ghandruk or Tadapani village lanes on the way down, with rhododendron in spring, finish the foothill loop. ✨ Why Choose Us Our crews are insured while they are on duty from the Nayapul road to Ghorepani on this short foothill week. You'll climb the Ulleri steps through rhododendron, then sleep where the pre-dawn walk to Poon Hill starts. Our Pokhara desk times the tourist-bus or private drive so you arrive in daylight. Your guide knows the staircase and which dawn is worth first light on Annapurna and Dhaulagiri. We'll keep the rest of the days in Gurung and Magar teahouses. You walk out to Nayapul and return to lakeside Pokhara the same afternoon. ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included Airport pickup and drop-off between Kathmandu hotel and airport Three nights in a 3-star Kathmandu hotel with breakfast Two nights in a 3-star Pokhara hotel with breakfast Scenic overland journey between Kathmandu and Pokhara via comfortable tourist bus Private transportation to and from the trek starting and ending point (Nayapul) Breakfast, lunch, and dinner on trekking days National park entry permit TIMS permit included Tour permits and paperwork handled for you Teahouse or lodge accommodation on the trail Licensed guide and porters (one porter per two trekkers) Travel and rescue arrangements ### What’s not included Transport to and from the meeting point outside arranged airport transfers Nepal visa fees International flights to and from Kathmandu Travel and emergency rescue insurance Personal trail costs (phone, laundry, drinks, charging, showers, water) ### Kit list Broken-in waterproof hiking boots and wool or synthetic socks Layered clothing, insulated jacket, rain shell, hat, and gloves Daypack, water bottles, and head torch Sleeping bag suitable for teahouse nights at altitude Sunglasses, sunscreen, lip balm, and personal first aid kit Passport copies, visa, insurance documents, and cash for extras on the trail ## FAQs ### When is the best season for this trek? March to May rhododendron bloom and October to November crisp air are peak windows for this itinerary. July and August mean leeches and cloud on lower slopes; December to February can ice steps above village level. Your guide reads the forecast before long cols or sunrise hikes. Shoulder weeks need an honest weather call before high passes or dawn viewpoints. ### How fit do I need to be? You should be comfortable on steep stone steps and forest paths for four to six hours with a daypack. Hill training and longer weekend walks in the months before travel help your legs and lungs on uphill trail days. Hill training, stair climbing, and longer weekend hikes in the months before travel help your legs and lungs, even when acclimatisation days are built into the route. Break in boots before you fly and carry a light daypack on practice walks. ### What is included in the package? Guided trekking with licensed leaders, lodge nights on the trail, meals as described for walking days, and permits for the regions crossed are included when they are part of this trip. Domestic flights, porters, and airport transfers apply only when they are part of this trip. Domestic flights, road transfers, porter support, and airport transfers apply only when they are part of this trip. Permits for the regions you cross are arranged in Kathmandu or Pokhara when included. ### What is not included?

Hot showers, Wi-Fi, and battery charging in lodges are usually paid locally when offered. Charges for hot showers, Wi-Fi, or battery charging in lodges are paid locally when offered unless your trip notes say otherwise. International flights, visa fees, and personal insurance stay outside the trek package. ### Where do we meet? Airport collection to your Kathmandu hotel is available when flight times are shared in advance. Thamel hotels are the usual meet point; drivers need flight numbers to meet you at the international terminal. Pokhara hotel meet applies when your package starts lakeside; allow a full day for the drive from the capital if that sector is included. Allow a little extra time after the trek before international flights home in case mountain roads or flights move. ### How does altitude sickness management work? Guides set a steady pace and watch for headache, nausea, or dizziness as you gain height. Weather can shift daily plans, so your guide keeps a steady pace with regular breaks. Tell your guide early if symptoms appear so tomorrow's stage can shorten or descent can start before conditions worsen. Trail conditions are checked each morning before the group moves. ### How do we reach the trailhead? Road transfer from Kathmandu to Pokhara and a short drive to Nayapul or another start point are common when transport is included. Your guide confirms departure times at briefing. Motion sickness medicine helps on winding mountain roads. Your crew would rather wait for a safe window than rush marginal weather. ### What permits are required? Annapurna Conservation Area Permit and TIMS registration apply on this route. The team arranges paperwork in Kathmandu or Pokhara when you provide passport copies and trek dates. Keep copies in your daypack for checkpoint stops. Monsoon cloud sits lower on the hills while winter brings ice on steps above village level. ### Can children join this trek? Families join when children can manage the daily hours and terrain on this specific route. Pace and daily hours can be adjusted on private departures, though that may extend the calendar. Ask our Kathmandu team if you are planning with younger walkers. Private departures can shorten daily hours, though that may add a day or two to the calendar. ### What insurance do I need? Comprehensive travel insurance that covers trekking to the highest altitude on your itinerary, medical evacuation, and helicopter rescue when applicable is essential. Many standard policies exclude high altitude by name. Read the wording before you travel so you can adjust cover if trekking above 5,000 metres is not named. Many standard policies exclude high altitude by name, so read the wording before you fly. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/Poonhill-Trek-4.webp - **Gallery image count**: 10 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
