Annapurna Highlight trip is a fascinating and panaromic view trek where 3 short treks ( Poon Hill + Muldai + Mardi Himal trek) are combined to bring the best view experience. It is a trekking of 8 walking and 2 traveling days and is suitable for clients in good condition, who are looking for variety, good lodges, beautiful views and not too much traveling time.
First walk up Poon Hill for the sunset or the next morning for the sunrise together with 200 others. Then via Deurali following a quiet trail steeply going up through the forest and along the ridge to Muldai Hill. In solitude you can enjoy beautiful views from the ridge and the top.
Descend to Ghandruk with its many good hotels and ascend to Landruk and the Mardi Himal BaseCamp with a splendid view of the peaks of the Annapurnas and the Machhapuchhare and because you already are well acclimatized, the fast ascend from Ghandruk is no problem. In student holiday time this part of the trekking can be very busy, but not at other times.
After sleeping again in High Camp you can return to Pokhara in one day.
More or less days in Pokhara or Kathmandu are no problem.
