Trekking in Spring: Spring season is the best time to trek to this area with clear sky and a good view of Himalayan peaks. The forest would be full of rhododendron flower. Weather would not hot and not cold.
Trekking in Autumn: This season is another best time to trek to this area. This time is just after rain would be clear sky, nice mountain view and lovely weather.
Trekking in Winter: This season could be cold (the lowest -10) but would be a lifetime experience to play with snow and ice.
Trekking in summer: This could be little bit disturbed by rain, land slide, flood and leech. But there would have some chance of mountain view after rain or cloud.

Enjoyed Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek
“Enjoyed so much with the mountains!”
It was a really nice trek. I enjoyed so much with the mountains, views and nice people. I really enjoyed the trek with Chuda. He is the best guide I ever could have imagined. Friendly, respectful, professional – made me feel very safe. Next time I would choose Chuda again.
