3 Days Trek in Nepal
This walk provides excellent panoramic views of the Annapurna Range at a relatively low (for the Himalayas) altitude. It also provides insight into neighboring network activity and leads you through green forests of rhododendrons and other trees.
First, the mountains: With the Annapurna Himal to the east, the Dhaulagiri Himal to the west, and Tibet to the north, the sunrise over the Himalayas from the summit of Poonhill is spectacular.
Then there’s the panorama: Aside from the mountains, the landscape is gorgeous, lush, and full of color in the spring.
Let us no longer overlook the humans. You may be hiking through Gurung and Magar settlements, which are inhabited by the region’s indigenous people. Warm hospitality awaits you at each stop.
Finally, the overall enjoyment: With a maximum elevation of 3,210m, this is one of Nepal’s most well-known one-week treks. It is good for families, those who do not enjoy climbing, or those who do not want to journey at altitude anymore.
Or for those with little time but a desire to enjoy the mountains. There is one difficult day of downhill hiking (7 to 8 hours), but the experience is without a doubt well worth it.
