Here is a short overview of the route you'll take for the Mohare Danda Trek with Poon Hill.
Your journey begins with your arrival at the Tribhuvan International Airport. After collecting your baggage, you can spot one of our representatives outside the airport. They'll hold a banner of the Nepal Hiking Team, who'll then take you to the vehicle and help you reach your hotel. You can rest for the night and prepare for the next day.
For the following day, a flight is scheduled from Kathmandu to Pokhara. It will take upto 30 minutes to reach the destination; from there, a vehicle will be waiting to take you to Birenthanti. After a drive, we begin our trip to Ulleri.
You'll rest for the night at Ulleri/Banthanti and then hike to Mohare Danda for the other day. Then, there will be another hike where you'll walk along a ridge to reach Poon Hill View Point. After spending some time there, you'll descend to Ghorepani and stay there for the night.
The following day, the hike will begin from Ghorepani to Tandapani and then to Kimche for the other day. Then, finally, after reaching Kimche, you'll take a ride back to Pokhara. After lunch, you'll take a flight back to Kathmandu, where you will enjoy the rest of the evening.

You might be confused about when to book the trek, right? We understand your concern and, thus, want to suggest some of the best times for the Mohare Danda Trek with Poon Hill.
The ideal time for the trek is on any date in March-May and then September- November. These months fall under the seasons of spring and autumn, which are the best in Nepal.
Hikers can experience the trek to the fullest as the weather conditions are favorable and the skies are clear. On the other hand, if you choose dates in Monsoon and winter, you'll face heavy rainfall and snowfall, which can affect your overall trekking experience.
Therefore, we recommend you choose only the best time.
The Mohare Danda Trek is moderately difficult. It has many uphill, downhill, and mixed terrains, so you must have excellent physical fitness.
To maintain a healthy body, you should exercise regularly and also include healthy food in your diet. If you maintain a healthy body, you can easily complete the trek.
The maximum elevation is 3300m. At this height, there is a low risk of altitude sickness. Our trekking guides will guide you throughout the way and help you accommodate the altitude. In addition, the guides will also provide instructions based on walking pace and breathing pattern.
If you want to consider other trekking packages, we recommend some of our packages based on the same Annapurna region.
The first one is the Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek. It is a short and easy trek suitable for beginner-level hikers.
The next is for those who want to challenge themselves. It is the Annapurna Base Camp Trek, which can be completed in 14 days.
Nevertheless, whichever package you choose, we will happily organize it.
On this day, you'll be greeted by our staff at the airport. You'll then be transferred to the hotel for the overnight stay. Then, you can prepare for the next day and take some rest.
An early morning flight will be scheduled from Kathmandu to Pokhara. You'll be transferred from the hotel to Kathmandu airport and then take a flight to Pokhara. After landing in Pokhara, you'll hop on your ride to Birethanti via Nayapul.
After crossing through the pastures of Ramghai and ascending the valley, you'll reach Tikhedhunga. Then after crossing the suspension bridge and ascending the 3300 steep stone steps to reach Ulleri. You can spend the rest of the evening with yourself.
After breakfast, we will travel on a challenging hike to Mohore Danda, where we will be surrounded by beautiful rhododendrons. This hike requires a high level of fitness due to its steep and strenuous nature.
However, the reward for our efforts will be the breathtaking 360-degree views of the valley and the panoramic views of the Dhaulagiri, Machapuchre, and Annapurna mountain ranges.
Witness the breathtaking sunrise at Mohare Danda before starting on an exciting hike to Poon Hill View Point. Admire the stunning views of Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, and Machapuchare from the hilltop. Afterward, descend towards the charming village of Ghorepani, home to the Gurungs.
You'll have a delicious breakfast in the morning. After breakfast, pack your bags and get ready for another hike.
You'll walk past forests of oak trees and other fauna until you reach Tadapani. Enjoy the breezy weather and birds chirping as you pass the trails.
If the weather doesn’t allow a sunrise hike the previous day, you’ll have another chance in the morning. You can hike to Poon Hill from Ghorepani before continuing toward Tadapani.
Today is the last day of our hike. You'll hike down to Kimche via Ghandruk and then take a ride back to Pokhara.
After reaching Pokhara, you'll board a flight back to Kathmandu Airport. Upon reaching Kathmandu, you'll be transferred to the hotel by the guide. Now, you can spend the rest of the evening shopping around Thamel or just walking around that area.
A representative from the Nepal Hiking Team will take you to the airport approximately 3 hours before your scheduled flight.

Experience of a lifetime! Leading up to the trip, I felt some excitement and uncertainty because I was traveling from New Jersey to Nepal, so it was a trip to the other side of the world. Also knowing we were going to trek to the highest region in the world.
Once we arrived in Kathmandu, we met up with our guide (Bhim). After a few minutes of talking with him, I felt a sense of calm and my excitement of joy grew from there. And I was right he and his team made sure we had the best experience possible.
The full trek going and coming was incredible. Our guide, Bhim, made sure we had the best experience. Can’t say enough of how wonderful he and his team made this one for the books!
I highly recommend booking with this company and Bhim! Namaste!
I just completed trekking in Nepal together with another solo traveler. The service of Nepal Hiking Team was exemplary from the start till the end. Nothing beats word-of-mouth good reviews.
Mr. Ganga has been very responsive to queries from Day 1 and was physically present even on the last day to officially close the loop for the package tour.
Our guide Bibek was very patient and sincere as he led us through the trek. He resolved issues with his heart and people skills and gave assurance whenever plans suddenly changed.
He ensured things were changed for the better. Our porter, Rajendran, was also good and always arrived ahead of time to ensure our rooms were confirmed.

We had the best time in Nepal. The beautiful views and warm hospitality of the Nepali people are truly unparalleled.
Instrumental to our amazing experience were our guide, Netra, and porter, Vasu.
We were super well taken care of. Netra was quick to assess our physical abilities and was able to effectively set the pace for our hikes. He had very good knowledge of the route and terrain. Importantly, this was our first time attempting a hike at a high altitude, so he took extra care to check on us regularly.
On a personal note, proper gear, including a powerful down jacket for -20 degrees Celsius and a proper hiking backpack, is super essential.
Overall, I would highly recommend the Nepal Hiking Team and Netra/Vasu for your Nepal adventure!
We were a group of 17 people from California who had been preparing for a year for this trip. Nepal Hiking Team was referred to us by one of my friends. After talking to & interviewing several companies, NHT seemed very responsive, cost-effective & experienced. After the trip, they proved us nothing less.
Their guides are top-of-the-line, very kind, and helpful. They made sure we all were prepared for the next day, set our expectations rights, & guided us through managing altitude sickness.
We all made it to Nepal and came back happy and healthy.
We all thank NHT for making our dream come true, and looking forward to many more with them.
I highly recommend the Nepal Hiking Team for anyone planning to trek in Nepal. My spouse and I had a fantastic time on our trek and greatly credit our positive experience to the thought and care put into it by Nepal Hiking Team in coming up with a personalized plan that would enable us to succeed.
Every detail was considered to match us based on our abilities and interests. We also could not have felt more cared for minute to minute by the team that supported us from the minute we arrived in Kathmandu until our departure.
Our guide, Nim, was amazing -- so careful, thoughtful, warm, and supportive. And our porters, Sabin and Ganesh, were delightful. They were all unbelievably generous in terms of how much they worked to ensure we were comfortable and prepared. They thought of every detail along the way.
