On this first day, we take early morning breakfast at the hotel and catch the flight to Pokhara from Kathmandu. Flying for about 30 minutes, we land at Pokhara airport. Instantly, we drive you through dusty and off-road to Ulleri via Nayapul.
You may feel tired or monotonous travelling on the dusty and bumpy off-road. But, the beautiful scenery of green rolling hills, lush of dense forest, natural streams, roaring rivers and amusing environment make you feel astonished and excited. About 30 minutes ride from Pokhara, we reach Nayapul. From Nayapul, we hike up to Tikhedhunga, then to Ulleri.
Overnight, we stay at Ulleri, enjoy cozy accommodation and rest.
Today, you find your trek shorter, easier and more comfortable. Trekking from Ulleri to Ghorepani, we pass through dense Oak and rhododendron forest. On the other side, you can observe charming Annapurna and Dhaulagiri Ranges. After a 4-5 hours trek, we reach Ghorepani.
Overnight, we stay at Ghorepani restoring energy for the next day’s trek.
This is the most exciting day of the whole trek. Passing through dense forest, we ascend to Poon Hill – the magnificent viewpoint. From the Poon Hilltop, capture the hypnotic sunrise view emerging just above Annapurna, Machhapuchre and other snow-capped peaks. After seizing the breath-taking vista of the Himalayas, we return to Ghorepani and take breakfast.
From Ghorepani, we continue our journey and climb towards Tadapani walking along the ridges and passing through green forests. After a 5-6 hours trek, we reach Tadapani.

Add following details
My sister and I went on a trip to Nepal in Oct 2018. We got in touch with Ram of Lonely Nepal Travels after a few of our friends reccomended him to us, and we were so glad we did! Nepal has so much to offer, and our trip was planned according to our interests and what we wanted to do. It included everything from visiting town squares and cultural/religious sites, to some adventure like bungee jumping/white water rafting/paragliding, and a trek to Poon Hill.
Everything was taken care of, down to the smallest details, and the guide was so kind as to invite us out for a traditional Nepalese dinner the day we landed in Kathmandu.
I am already looking forward to planning another trip to Nepal, one exclusively for trekking, with Lonely Nepal Travels’ very experienced guides.
Namaste!
I highly recommend Lonely Nepal Travels for anyone visiting Nepal either on a mission or an adventure 🤙Ram & his team are highly resourceful! He was able to help us in making the perfect 10 Day plan in Nepal that suits our wants.
It was smooth, fun and breath taking
We never worried about a thing, Ram took care of all the details allowing us to really enjoy every minute
We went on a 10-day trip to Nepal and had the most amazing time with Ram and the team. They were always there for us, with us throughout our journey to make sure that we were having a blast.
We went on a 4-days hike, visited Pokhara and Kathmandu, known and unknown places, temples and churches. We had the best local food inside and outside the cities.
I personally highly recommend Lonely Nepal Travels, they were all so positive, so welcoming and had great knowledge of the history of the country, the traditions, the religions and the areas we were visiting.Thank you Ram! We had a great time and will definitely see you again soon!
