Nepal is one small,beautiful &
famous place for treks.As you proceed slowly along the
trek upward, the varied characteristics of nature and
those of the cultures and customs of different ethnic
groups are noticed. From a starting altitude of 1300m
you will climb to 3210m at Poon Hill, where you will
enjoy not only a superb panorama of both Annapurna and
D
haulagiri but also a splendid and magnificent view of
sunrise. Poonhill is one of the most interesting features
of this trekking tour.
The downward return trek becomes different from that
of upward. It flows through one of the biggest forests
of rhododendron found in the world. If the month is
right, the complete forest becomes a mixture of white
and red blossoms of rhododendron.
The trek provides a challenging and rewarding way of
seeing some of the large Himalayan peaks up close, as
well as viewing the culture of villages in central Nepal.
