This trek is a wonderful opportunity to witness the beauty of the Annapurna region with a shorter trek. The trip starts just north of Pokhara that means we start Ghorepani trekking from Dhampus phedi (Surkhet phedi), Nayapul or from Beni Bazaar. You will enjoy Ghorepani poon hill trekking in the spectacular mountain scenery through charming villages inhabited by the Gurungs, dense rhododendron forests full of birds and deep subtropical valleys.

Ghorepani trekking is possible to make short and long trekking program Itinerary as customer’s demands so it will be easier for the trek arrangement. Who have shorter holiday they go via Nayapul and return the same route but who have longer holiday they prefer to make Ghorepani circuit pass through Gurung hill continue trek to Ghandruk and end the trek in Dhampus phedi drive to Pokhara then text day drive or fly in Kathmandu. We recommend Ghorepani circuit trekking because you see the best panoramic view, Gurung cultural and not need to return same route.
Some trekkers they begin Ghorepani poon hill trekking via Dhampus Phedi and end the trekking Nayapul (Near the Birethanti) or Beni Bazaar.
