At a maximum altitude of 3210m, the Poon Hill-Ghandruk trek is one of the best options for anyone with limited time wanting to witness the Himalayas, the culture, and tradition of an ethnic group such as the Gurung.

The inhabitants of this area of Annapurna Region are famous for their shamanistic traditions which include the consumption of wild honey from the Himalayan Honeybee which also happens to be the largest honeybee in the world. This region having a bountiful bio-diversity attracts visitors from all over the world. Traditional tea guest houses, lodges, homestays and community guest houses are found all along the way in this trek, making it rather easy than other treks. This trek is perfect for families with children as it allows them to explore without much risk and stress.
