Trip Overview

The Annapurna Sunrise trek is an easy walk through the countryside, with rhododendron forests and cultural villages. Poon Hill (3210m) has the highest elevation of the entire trip and offers a spectacular panoramic view during sunrise and sunset. The Annapurna Sunrise trek offers some of the best views and is widely regarded as the best viewpoint in the Annapurna region. Most of the journey is through beautiful mountain scenery, passing through charming villages inhabited by the Magar, Gurung, Bahun, and Kshtrai communities. The inhabitants here are pretty warm, with a great sense of humor and a warm welcome for guests. So, even if you are a long distance from your home, you can feel as if you are at home with your family because of these people's behavior. This vibrant short trip to the Annapurna region features breathtaking mountain scenery.

The trek could be ideal for that beginner trekker who doesn’t have a habit of taking a long walk or those who want less trekking than the Annapurna Base Camp Trek. With the Annapurna, Sunrise Trek package travelers would be captivated and blissful by the end of the trek and also by the mind-blowing scenario of the mystical mountains as well as Rhododendron forests in red and green. The trail mostly goes through dense rhododendron forests and deep subtropical valleys with the sweet sound of birds and the occasional sighting of deer and monkeys. The jungle is wildly vibrating in the spring when rhododendrons and magnolias bloom. While dropping the flower on the trail, you may feel that someone is welcoming some supreme being. You can't imagine the beauty of the morning view from Poon Hill that you'll see here, which brightens the entire spectrum and will capture your heart. The addition of rice terraces completes the scene, making it a photographer's dream. At the climax, the mild orange rays of the early sunlight kiss the snow-covered Himalayan giants such as Mt. Dhaulagiri (8,167m), Annapurna I (8,091m), Machhapuchhre, and a network of other summits.

Annapurna Trekking for 6 Days After a 2 to 3-hour drive from Pokhara, the sunrise trek begins from Ulleri and continues passes through Banthanti, Ghorepani, Tadapani, the Natural Hot Spring at Jhinudandak Landruk village, Tolka, Pothana, Australian Camp, Dhampus, and returns to Pokhara from Phedi via a short loop of Annapurna. "Adventure to Nepal" provides the Annapurna sunrise trek itinerary in shorter and longer versions based on our clients' preferences and vacation schedules. We run this trip all year and only use experienced guides. However, the best months to travel are early September to mid-November and March to mid-May.

Itinerary

Soon after your flight arrives in Kathmandu (Tribhuvan International Airport), you will be greeted with a warm welcome by our representative, who will display a card upon your arrival. After that, you will be transferred to your accommodation in our private tourist van.

Our journey today begins with an exciting drive to Pokhara. The aim is to enjoy the beautiful scenery, a snowy peak, and a roaring river. Driving through several green hills, huts, and villages is exciting, but the road conditions are not always good. Well stop twice for snacks and lunch. Finally, after arriving in Pokhara, you can spend your freetime boating on the lake or hiking around the lakeside.

After a morning meal in Pokhara, we will board a private vehicle and travel to Banthanti, where our trek begins. We pass through Nayapool, cross the suspension bridge, and arrive in Birethanti, where we must check our permits and TIMS. And we'll keep driving to Banthanti. Ghorepani is one of the most well-known and best trekking destinations in the Annapurna region, offering fantastic views of Annapurna and the Dhaulagiri Himalayan range. Ghorepani, a Magars settlement area, is an exciting place with small shops and stalls selling local products. Overnight in the tea house.

We get up early (an hour before sunrise) and begin our hike to Poon Hill. Though named Annapurna Sunrise Trek, Poonhill is an icon of this trek from which we can see magnificent sunrise views of Tukuche, Nilgiri (6940m), Annapurna I (8091m)),Tarke Kang(7193m), Mt. Dhaulagiri I (8167m), Hiunchuli (6441m), and Machhapuche (5940m). When your gaze begins to capture those incredible scenic views, the moment will mesmerize you so that you will lift yourself. We trek back to Ghorepani after taking photos and drinking coffee or tea. After breakfast, we resume our walk to Tadapani, moving east and climbing a nearby mountain (Gurung Hill). We descend through the rhododendron forest, passing by spectacular waterfalls along the way, and spend the night in Tadapani.

After a warm breakfast, we descend through the dense and dark forest. This section of the trail will take you through a dense forest of old rhododendron trees and other flowers. We arrived in Ghandruk, a slope settlement with stone houses mostly inhabited by Gurung people, after a three-hour walk through the forest and crossing some small streams. We can stop for lunch in Ghandruk village, which has a breathtaking view of the mountains. After lunch, we hike to the Jeep station and then drive back to Pokhara. In Pokhara, we can spend the evenings by the lakeside. Spend the night at the hotel.

The journey along the Nepalese Himalayas(Annapurna) comes to an end today. We will drive to Kathmandu, where you can spend your free time shopping. We provide a welcome dinner in the evening. We will always be happy to assist you with our services.

On the last day of the trip, our team members will be at the hotel to receive you and drop you off at the airport.
