This short trekking without difficulty, among Gurung, ethnic group specialized in the terrace fields art, is ideal for a first contact with the Nepal mountains. Even if this trekking is mainly in the middle of the rice fields and under cover of a splendid rhododendrons' forest, it becomes aerial on the ridge between Tarapani and Gorepani, the Balcony, with in background Dhaulagiri, Nilgiri, Annapurna, Machapuchare. Its modest altitude, 3200m at the highest point, allows it to remain accessible even in winter. This trek should not be also rejected by those who are frighten by the altitude. The sunrise from Poon Hill on Dhaulagiri, Nilgiri, Annapurna, Machapuchare will give you undoubtedly an unforgettable memory. But to see it, it will be necessary to come there in good Company...
