Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek is another best trekking route for clients who don't have enough time to do another trekking route. In the trekking trail, you will start hiking either from Nayapul of Pokhara or Ulleri as the jeep goes up to Ulleri at the present. If you start hiking from Nayapul then you will walk by the roadside with the shade of small trees and along the small Modi river. There is a checkpoint at Birethanti where you have to present your TIMS and ACAP Permit. Once you reach the Tikhedunga you will have to cross the Modi river through a suspension bridge and it will take you more than 2 hrs to reach up to Ulleri.
