Annapurna Sanctuary via Ghorepani (Poon Hill) and via Short Modi Khola Start led by Lali (Laxmi) Malla
Great place, although we couldn’t see much due to clouds!

Annapurna Sanctuary via Ghorepani (Poon Hill) led by Ang Tsering Sherpa
The side trip to Poon Hill was beautiful although the view at Khopra was more dramatic and far less crowded. If we did the Khopra trek again, I probably would not go to Poon Hill as well.

Ghandruk Loop Australian Camp Out and Back and via Ghorepani (Poon Hill) led by SAMIKSHYA CHAUDHARY
The final ascent from Ghorepani to Poon Hill is not as difficult as some other parts of the trek, and is certainly worth doing for the spectacular views of the sunrise over the Annapurna range from the top.
