Poon Hill - 4 Days / 3 Nights (ex Pokhara) - Daily Departure

Fourty years ago when this tour was first conceived the road head finished at Nayapul. Now roads traverse deeper into the Himalayas so we take advantage of this to save you up to two days walking along dirt roads watching locals drive by to their villages

This shortened version of the Poon Hill Trek allows for you to see all the highlights of the traditional trek without the first and last day road walks
