A short drive to trail head Nayapul, we start our hiking on a well-developed trail along the Modi Khola River to arrive in Ghorepani- the ancient settlement of the ethnic Gurung people. Early in the morning we ascend to the Himalayan view point station of Poon Hill, from where we can enjoy the outstanding views of Mt. Dhaulagiri (8167m), Mt. Annapurna I (8091m), Mt. Nilgiri (7040m), Annapurna South, Annapurna II, Annapurna III, Annapurna IV, Hunchuli, Fish Tail, Lamjung Himal and many other short and high mountains which dominate the northern skyline. In the coming few days we visit many beautiful villages on the trail and enjoy the best Mountain view in the world and then go back to Pokhara for a lake-side rest.
