Trekking into the annapurna region, Poon hill & Ghorepani trek start and end at a beautiful city of west Nepal Pokhara. This trek is a colorful and one of the short forays into the Annapurna region. The trail winds through patchwork valleys, dense mossy forests and pass icy waterfalls where you can stop to cool your face. The attraction of this trek is Poon Hill (3,193m), the highest viewpoint of your trek from where you can’t only enjoy a superb panorama of both Annapurna (8,091m) and Dhaulagiri (8,167m) but also a very splendid and magnificent view of sunrise.
Around every corner is a tantalizing glimpse of the high mountains, whole horizons of which will be revealed to you as you reach the high points of your trek. Enjoy trekking in the spectacular mountain scenery through charming villages inhabited by the Gurungs, Magars, dense rhododendron forest, full of birds and deep sub-tropical valleys. As the sun touches the snow-capped summits, the Himalayan giants, Dhaulagiri and Annapurna along with a maze of other peaks slowly begin to appear, like magic, before our eyes.
Poon hill & Ghorepani trek is considered as one of the easy and soft treks, even the old age person or schoolboys can participate on this trek as it involves all most NO high altitude risks. This trek covers the lower part of the Annapurna sanctuary trek but still, it covers all the attractions that have with the Annapurna sanctuary trek i.e. stunning mountain views, local cultures, traditions, and local living lifestyle.

It doesn’t require any technical experience, only that you are in good physical condition and be able to hike 4 – 6 hours over hilly terrain up to 3,500m of altitude with a light day pack.
If you have any previous experiences would be helpful but if you don’t have is also not an important matter of issue. This trek will introduce you to trekking in the Himalayas and also about the local cultures, traditions, and local people. Even if you are around the age of 65 years, you can be a candidate for this trek.

It's been more than a year since we went to Nepal, but the the memories are still in our hearts. It has been one of our favorite trips and we will definitely visit again. Dawa took care of us like family and we'll be forever thankful for their generosity and kindness. Thank you for showing us the Himalayas from Poon Hill and for touring us in Kathmandu. xoxo Mike and Yss

I have just returned from a wonderful, first, visit to Nepal. My husband and I trekked in the popular Annapurna area (it was a warmup for his Kanchenjunga trip) under the welcome care of Tenzin Jorden and Namgyal. It gave such richness to have their knowledge, kindness and support - always shared with warmth and a ready smile. The mountains took the breath away!
Thank-you so much Dawa. I am recommending Dream Himalaya Adventures to everyone!...and look forward to coming back.Andy Rattenbury, Wellington, New Zealand
We had the best time with the team from Dream Himalaya Adventures they went above and beyond for me and my wife before, during and after our trip I will be 100% returning to do my trips with Dawa and his team
One of the best hiking experiences ever with a very kind trek guide and a motivating porter. The food and accommodation were excellent, and mostly the responsibility of the company towards its clients is remarkable until the end of the trek. Looking forward to travel again with Dream Himalaya Adventures.
Manaslu summit climb expedition - Aug-Oct 2022. Unfortunately we were unlucky with the weather due to crazy amounts of snow and avalanche risk and weren't able to summit but I had a great adventure thanks to Dream Himalaya. Dawa Sherpa and Tendi Sherpa did everything in their power to help our expedition succeed. Dawa Sherpa runs a fantastic company and I would highly recommend his services for any adventure from climbing to trekking in Nepal. He happily answered all my questions in advance of the trip promptly and thoroughly. Tendi Sherpa is an excellent certified mountain guide (IFMGA) which is strong, communicates well and is a pleasure to climb with. All the services provided were fantastic. Base camp was amazing. Comfortable single
Overall we were very satisfied with their services. Dawa really made an effort to fullfill our needs. Top of the cream were services in the base camp. Organization, food, tents and kindness of the personel were on the top level. I very recommend!
Amazing hispitality, excellent and very reliable service, good and diverse food in base camp, very professional and kind stuff!
Very well organised by Dream Himalaya Adventures, they are "Dream Team" for make it the best experience ever. I highly recommend them.
Exellent! Organisation, Technical support, acomodation, food, logistick. From Kathmandu to Koto quick and comfortable transportation, the same on way back.
Very well organised by Dawa Lama & his team . Our guide and porter were extremely helpful . At times our guide suggested slight changes to our itinerary which made it easier for us to approach & get over Thorang La pass. A brilliant trip for Mick & myself, Thanks to Dream Himalaya. On our return to Kathmandu Dawa again looked after us , highly recommended .
We have been trekking with Dream Himilaya Adventures since long and have utilised their services for the last 4 treks. This time for the Everest Marathon - 29.05.2022 we used their services from 16.05.2022 to 04.06.2022, they provided both of us support from Kathmandu to Kathmandu. Though Mr. Dawa Lama Sherpa was on a Everest Summit expeditiion, he made all the arrangements required for us sitting at EBC. Mr. Rajesh from Kathmandu Office was very helpful. As usual receiving us at Kathmandu Airport, taking us to Pashupathi Temple and the to Everest Marathon Event Organisers office to collect all necessary things from them. Flight from Kathmandu to Lukla, Porter Guide from Lukla to EBC through the route we requested for. Mr. Suresh,
We did the trek to EBC in March 2022 with Dream Himalaya Adventures. A trip like this will always have curveballs because of the environment and altitude - that's when you really appreciate people with brilliant local knowledge and the ability to sort thing out. Dawa and team were absolutely fantastic and I unreservedly recommend them to anyone.
