Had a great time during our first himalayan trek! We decided to do the Manaslu trek as our first trek. Our local tour experts took very good care of us, for a good price, our guide was very nice and spoke english. He forgot quite a lot of his stuff (flashlight, map, water bottle) but we were well prepared so this wasn't too much trouble. The Manaslu trek was beautiful. If you're looking for a nice trek like Annapurna but quiter, this is a great trek!
Ghorephani Poon Hill Trek Nice trek, with beautiful views! Quit hard with the snow, but the guide was a great help! It was really good, distances per day was enough if you never do treks, well balanced. But a pity we didnt see much from ghandruk, we hadnt the time to look around because we had to go to the bus. And there was said that ghandruk was beautiful to walm around and see the culture, so that was a pity. But overall really well balanced and Nice trip!! With a kind and helpfull guide.
We had a great time on our first trip to Nepal - Poonhill is best way to start the Himalaya experience! Even though it's shortest trek possible, it's still somehow demanding - especially the +3200 steps in Ulleri. You need to be mentally and physcially prepared for 6-7 hours of walking every day. The views of Dhaulagiri and Annapurna (among others) were incredibly rewarding.
