This is a beautiful shortest trekking you can do in Annapurna region, the trek is easy and much romantic walking through the beautiful villages. This trek showcases some of the best views of Annapurna and neighboring Himalayas, especially from the Poon Hill. It is a relatively easy walk meandering through villages and rhododendron forests. We can test our stamina at the Ulleri Hill with more than 3,300 stone steps, one of the world's largest numbers of stone steps on a hill of this kind. The most attractive part of this trek is to explore the Ghandruk Village where lots of Gurungs are inhibited The trek will go up to 1951 meters maximum and the trek can be organized 3 to 4 days This short trek offers you magnificent views of Annapurna range as well as massive Dhaulagiri.
