Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek

Fantastic Poon Hill Trek (4 days, 3 nights) – Stress-Free and Well-Organised! Mar 2025 • Solo I had an unforgettable 4-day, 3-night trek to Poon Hill with Alliance Adventures From the moment I arrived, everything was well taken care of—hotel bookings in Kathmandu and Pokhara, seamless trek arrangements, and attentive guidance throughout. The team prioritised my comfort and well-being, ensuring I had proper meals, arranging hot water for showers—a thoughtful touch for a first-time hiker in Nepal. The guides were incredibly patient, encouraging me to take my time and acclimatise properly to the altitude. My porter was reliable and professional, always handling my bags with great care. Reaching Poon Hill at sunrise and witnessing the stunning Himalayan views was truly breathtaking. My guide was also very knowledgeable, patiently answering all my questions and enriching the experience. If you’re looking for an stress-free, well-organised trek where everything is taken care of for you, I highly recommend Alliance Adventures. You’ll be in safe hands! ⭐ 10/10 – Would definitely book with them again!
