TREKKING SOLIDARY IN SANTA WEEK
From April 4 to 11, 2020
Poon Hill Trekking – NEPAL
Why is it a solidarity trek?
Because while you enjoy this Trekking with a local and sustainable agency in Nepal, too you collaborate with the project of the Maresía Association (www.maresia.ong). The Seasiness Association for the Promotion of International Volunteering and the Sustainable Development Goals develops an educational and communication development project in a village in Nepal. The benefits obtained with this solidarity trekking revert to school maintaining the dining room as well as improving the living conditions of children in Nepal.
This circuit consists of walks that do not require a great technique in which you will travel picturesque towns in western Nepal at the foot of the Annapurna. This trekking will allow you to get an idea of the traditional lifestyle in the authentic towns of Nepal, where we will ascend to Poon Hill 3210 meters from where you will enjoy the sunrise over the most spectacular mountains on Earth.
