This trek is the excellent alternative to Annapurna Ghorepani Trek to those who want a little more off beaten trail to explore remotely Nepal with fewer tourists. An early morning Himalayan sunrise views at Poonhill is the starting impression of the trek. As you go up steeply higher to Upper Chistibung, you will encounter high cascading waterfalls, rushing rivers, lush pine forests with vibrant colors of flowers along with fine settlements of local Gurung tribe of people. Exploring sacred Khayer Lake, encountering the local people of fine Gurung villages, walking through the excellent layered paddy fields with rewarding views of Mt. Dhaulagiri, Annapurna, Nilgiri, Hiuchuli, etc are the major attractions of this trek.
