Poon Hill Trek is a short and relatively easy trek into the Annapurna region. Also known as Ghorepani, this trek is suitable for those who do not have much time but would like to experience all that Nepal offers. This classic trek packs everything in, with paths through rhododendron forests and rice paddies, finishing with spectacular views of beautiful snow-capped Himalayan mountains.

The sunrise from Poon Hill on the 3rd day of trekking is considered one of the best views in the Himalayas.

Ready for an unforgettable trekking adventure that will leave you with less time planning and more time experiencing? Trekking with Purpose (TWP) seamlessly organises your once-in-a-lifetime trek across an array of unique global locations, such as Nepal, Australia, Iceland, the UK, and more. We not only take care of all the complex planning involved. For every TWP booking we give a percentage of the income back into the local communities that have been so central to the TWP story.

Hiking the Laugavegur trail was an adventure! A challenging adventure for a group of slightly older than the average on the trail. We hiked, stayed in huts, were fed filling and lovely meals, lots of snacks and the odd box of beer and wine to celebrate those long days on your feet. So so worth it. Magnus and his trusty dog Fenris were master guides and I felt safe at all times particularly when the weather turned on us with Magnus helping anyone that needed it up some steep ascents and descents. It was 55km of long days, up and down hills, fun nights and good humour. Magnus is your guide. Just do it! Thank you Trekking with Purpose. Amazing.

I would thoroughly recommend the team, from Andrew , our local rep to Magnus the guide. His knowledge of the trail , its history, geography and geology was a great learning for us.

A massive thank you to Andrew and Lewis for organising the Coast to Coast UK walk and safely guiding us throughout the amazing and memorable journey. We walked with a fantastic, fun and inspirational group of people. The route was spectacular with the scenery breathtaking and constantly changing. The whole Coast to Coast trek experience was brilliant. We highly recommend Trekking with Purpose.
