Altitude Graph
Additional Information

Stay Safe

 

  • Altitude Sickness: The main and common risk while trekking above about 2500m is Altitude sickness. Altitude sickness is caused by acute exposure to low partial pressure of oxygen at high altitude. The available amount of oxygen to sustain mental and physical alertness decreases with altitude. Available oxygen drops as the air density itself, the number of molecules (of both oxygen and nitrogen) per given volume, drops as altitude increases. So don’t ignore, if you have any symptoms then descending to a lower altitude is the only option.
  • Water: Have some means to purify water, iodine or a fine ceramic filter are the best options. The streams should be considered polluted and whilst bottled water is often available, the disposal of plastic bottles is a problem.

Electricity in Nepal

Nepal is a developing country, Outside of major cities area electricity on trekking can be scares. You should have to pay 100-800 NRs per hour to charge goods on many lodges and also many tea-house treks, including in Annapurna base camp trek, Everest Base camp trek and many others treks also. Chargers often won't work on low power solar systems you find right up in the mountains so u can buy alternative bayonet light to electricity power plug converter, which will only works in low voltage is highlow. The standard Nepalese electrical outlet is a three-pronged triangle so bring three-pronged triangle chargers.

Nepal Climate information

April to June (summer): In these months it is quite warm and dry weather. There is an abundance of blooming flowers in the Himalayas at this time, with rhododendrons, in particular, adding a splash of color to the landscape. This season is the best time to undertake mountain expeditions.
June to September (Monsoon): There will be heavy monsoonal rainfall in this season. Rains are generally lighter in high Himalayan reasons. In this season the mountain ranges are not often visible due to the clouds.

Internet access in teahouses usually comes at an additional cost and might require purchasing vouchers or codes for usage. The cost can vary based on the location and quality of the connection.

Communication Challenges:

While some trekkers may find it useful to check emails or send messages, it's important not to rely solely on internet access for communication during the trek. Unpredictable weather conditions or technical issues could affect connectivity.

Offline Communication:

Consider informing friends and family of your travel plans and the possibility of limited communication. Having a local SIM card for emergency calls might be helpful, but cellular coverage can also be intermittent in some areas.

Whether you choose to trek independently or with professional assistance, your decision should consider your trekking experience, fitness level, comfort in navigating unfamiliar terrain, and your desire for cultural and logistical support.

FAQs

The Poon Hill Trek is considered to be a relatively moderate trek, making it accessible to a wide range of trekkers, including beginners with a basic level of fitness and those who may not have prior trekking experience. Here's an overview of the difficulty level and factors to consider:

Moderate Difficulty:

The Poon Hill Trek is often categorized as a moderate trek in terms of difficulty. It does not require technical climbing skills, and the trails are well-established and well-maintained.

Altitude:

While the maximum altitude you reach during the Poon Hill Trek is around 3,210 meters (10,531 feet) at Poon Hill itself, most of the trekking is done at lower altitudes. Altitude sickness is generally not a significant concern on this trek.

Terrain:

The trails consist of a mix of stone steps, dirt paths, and occasionally rocky sections. There are uphill and downhill stretches, but the gradients are usually manageable.

Daily Trekking Hours:

The daily trekking hours typically range from 4 to 7 hours, depending on your pace and the specific itinerary. Trekking hours may vary based on individual fitness levels and the chosen route.

Teahouse Accommodations:

Accommodations are in teahouses or guesthouses along the route. While the facilities are basic, they provide comfortable lodging and meals.

Altitude Acclimatization:

The Poon Hill Trek is designed in a way that allows for gradual acclimatization to the altitude. This minimizes the risk of altitude-related issues.

Weather and Seasons:

The difficulty of the trek can vary with the weather conditions. While spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) are the most popular and recommended times for the trek due to clear skies and comfortable temperatures, the winter months (December to February) can bring colder temperatures and the possibility of snow, which might increase the challenge.

Physical Fitness:

A basic level of fitness and some prior walking or hiking experience is advisable. Regular cardiovascular exercises, such as walking, jogging, or cycling, can help prepare your body for the trek.

Guides and Porters:

Many trekkers opt to hire local guides and porters, which can greatly enhance the trekking experience by providing support, local knowledge, and assistance with logistics.

The Poon Hill Trek is popular and rewarding throughout the year, but there are certain seasons that are considered the best due to favorable weather and clear views.

The two main trekking seasons for the Poon Hill Trek are:

Spring (March to May):

Spring is one of the best seasons for the Poon Hill Trek. The weather is mild and stable, with clear skies and pleasant temperatures. The rhododendron forests along the trail are in full bloom during this time, adding vibrant colors to the landscape. The visibility is excellent, offering stunning panoramic views of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges from Poon Hill. It's a popular time for trekking, so the trails and teahouses might be busier compared to other seasons.


Autumn (September to November):

Autumn is another fantastic time for the Poon Hill Trek. The weather is generally clear and stable, making for excellent trekking conditions. The skies are usually clear, providing breathtaking mountain views from Poon Hill. The temperatures are comfortable, and the crowds are generally smaller compared to the spring season. Autumn is considered the peak trekking season in Nepal, so advanced booking for accommodations is recommended. While spring and autumn are the most popular and recommended seasons for the Poon Hill Trek, the trek can also be done in other months. Here's a brief overview of the other seasons:

Summer (June to August):

Summer is the monsoon season in Nepal. The region experiences heavy rainfall, making the trails muddy and slippery. The views may be obstructed by clouds, and the risk of landslides can be higher in some areas. Trekking during this season can be challenging, but it's possible for those who don't mind rain and are prepared for the weather conditions.


Winter (December to February):

Winter brings colder temperatures and the possibility of snowfall at higher elevations. The trekking trails might be less crowded during this season. Clear skies are more common, providing good visibility and views of snow-covered peaks. It's important to be well-prepared for cold weather, and some parts of the trail may be inaccessible due to heavy snowfall.

For the Poon Hill Trek, you will need a combination of permits to ensure a smooth and legal journey. The required permits include:

TIMS (Trekkers' Information Management System) Card:

The TIMS card is a mandatory permit for all trekkers in Nepal, including those on the Poon Hill Trek. It helps authorities keep track of trekkers and ensure their safety. The card includes essential information about trekkers, their routes, and contact details.

There are two types of TIMS cards:

one for Independent Trekkers (individuals) and another for Organized Trekkers (those trekking through a registered trekking agency).

The TIMS card can be obtained in Kathmandu or Pokhara from the Nepal Tourism Board or authorized trekking agencies.


Annapurna Conservation Area Permit (ACAP):

The ACAP is another crucial permit required for the Poon Hill Trek, as the trek falls within the Annapurna Conservation Area. The permit fees collected contribute to the conservation and preservation of the natural and cultural resources in the area. You can obtain the ACAP permit in Kathmandu or Pokhara from the Nepal Tourism Board office or the ACAP entry points along the trekking route.

Absolutely, Poon Hill is absolutely worth it. This iconic trek offers spectacular sunrise views over the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges, accessible trails suitable for a range of fitness levels, cultural interactions with local communities, diverse landscapes including lush forests and terraced fields, a unique teahouse experience, and the chance to witness stunning mountain panoramas, all within a relatively short trek duration. The memories of these breathtaking vistas, camaraderie with fellow trekkers, and the cultural immersion make Poon Hill a truly rewarding and unforgettable journey.

Altitude sickness is generally not a significant concern on the Poon Hill Trek, as the highest point reached is around 3,210 meters (10,531 feet) at Poon Hill itself. Most of the trekking is done at lower altitudes, which reduces the risk of altitude-related issues. The route is designed to allow for gradual acclimatization, and the relatively short duration of the trek also minimizes the chances of experiencing severe altitude sickness. However, it's still important to be aware of the symptoms of altitude sickness and to listen to your body, as individual reactions to altitude can vary.

Yes, you can see Annapurna I from Poon Hill. Poon Hill is renowned for its spectacular panoramic views of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri mountain ranges. Annapurna I, which is the 10th highest mountain in the world, is one of the prominent peaks visible from Poon Hill. The sunrise view from Poon Hill offers a breathtaking sight as the sun's first rays illuminate the majestic Annapurna range, including Annapurna I, creating a magical and awe-inspiring moment for trekkers.

Yes, the Poon Hill Trek is generally considered safe as it follows well-marked and well-traveled trails, involves moderate altitudes that minimize the risk of altitude sickness, and offers established teahouse accommodations. However, trekkers should still exercise caution, stay informed about weather conditions, maintain proper health practices, and consider hiring local guides or trekking agencies to enhance safety. Adhering to trekking norms, respecting local customs, and carrying travel insurance contribute to a secure and enjoyable journey amidst the stunning landscapes of the Annapurna region.

Although the trek start from Nayapul to reach the Poonhill, there is alternative route of transportation till Ghorepani. You can go by car to Ghorepani. From Poon hill, you need to hike about an hour to reach poon hill which offers you mesmerizing view of Mountains.

Poon Hill is located at an approximate distance of 42 kilometers (26 miles) from the city of Pokhara. The trek to Poon Hill typically starts from Nayapul, which is about a 1.5 to 2-hour drive from Pokhara. From Nayapul, trekkers follow a well-marked trail that winds through charming villages, lush forests, and terraced fields over the course of several days, eventually leading to the summit of Poon Hill. The trekking distance from Nayapul to Poon Hill is approximately 28 to 32 kilometers (17 to 20 miles), depending on the specific route taken and the variation in trail options.
