Annapurna Foothills Trek

Annapurna Foothills Trek, which also refers to the Classic Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek, is one of the finest and most relaxing treks in the lower Annapurna region! 

Annapurna Foothills Trek is a low-level walk in the Annapurna in the north-central part of Nepal. Gentler but no less refreshing, this is a trek in the foothills of the Annapurna range in Nepal. It doesn’t miss out on a thing, and the views are just jaw-dropping. With the highest part of this trek only reaching 3210 m (at Poon Hill) and some of the finest mountain views (particularly between Tadapani and Ghorepani), this is a fantastic trek for those who do not want to walk for more than a week, have limited time, and also want to avoid the major high-altitude areas of the Annapurna range.

This one-week trek offers the benefit of less frequented paths without missing out on the sights. It is ideal for those with limited time or who seek a gentle introduction to the scenic and cultural beauty of the Nepal Himalayas. Our route travels west from Pokhara out across the Panchase Lekh to the Modi Khola Valley, before turning north for the long but gradual climb through rhododendron groves to the village of Ghorapani and its magnificent panoramic views of Dhaulagiri and Annapurna. We then backtrack across the high ridges of the Deorali Pass (10,000 ft) to Ghandruk with its slate-roofed houses and fertile terraced fields. From Ghandruk, the trail descends steeply to the Modi Khola before climbing to a final, superbly situated campsite known as Austrian Camp, directly facing the peaks of the Annapurna Himal.

Annapurna Foothills Trek, also known as the classic Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek, is the best trip among the none-too-fit trekkers in their 60s and 70s and those who love the soft walking holidays relaxing through the charming villages, terraced farmlands, lush green and rhododendron forests, and breathtaking mountain views almost every day with easy access. An early morning excursion to the famous Poon Hill to observe the spectacular sunrise over Mt. Dhaulagiri, Annapurna, Nilgiri, and many other snowy peaks is an awesome experience. When the sun touches Himalayan giants in the early morning, you will say, "Wow.". The route in the Annapurna Foothills Tour includes Dhampus, Pothana, Deurali, the famous Gurung village of Landruk, Ghandruk, and Ghorepani, then descends through Ulleri, Tikhedhunga, and finally Nayapul to end the trip.
