Until Pokhara, trekkers will enjoy luxury accommodations and they can have the food items they like. But, when they ascend to Ulleri and Poonhill-Ghorepani, they may not have much of a chance to have accommodation and food items. However, don’t be sad, there are plenty of lodges and guesthouses to organize your accommodation and food. Moreover, your guide will manage beautiful food and accommodation for you during the trek.

The flight from Kathmandu to Pokhara is 40 minutes maximum and the road trip is 7-8 hours. Even, the road gets disturbed by heavy traffic and other issues. So, flight is recommended.

But we are not directly going to Pokhara on his trip. We first drive to Trishuli Beach. It takes around 2.30 hrs and we enjoy white water river rafting there. Next, we drive to Chitwan and finally to Pokhara and then to the trailhead of Poonhill Trek.

As you end the trek at Ghandruk, you can directly drive back to Pokhara by four-wheel jeep or by public bus.

After you get to Pokhara, you again have to drive to Nayapool/Birethanti for 2 hours and begin the hiking. While returning from Ghorepani-Poonhill, you can drive directly from Ghandruk to Pokhara and Pokhara to Kathmandu. ( Flight from Pokhara is optional)

Guide and Porter

You require hiring at least a guide for your Ghorepani-Poonhill Trek. Without a guide, you are not permitted to do Poonhill Trek.

The guide will be very smart with an A-grade license, coordinating the local flora and fauna, Entire Mountain views, well-known precautions, and local culture and speak English very well.
