Breakfast, Lunch, & Dinner is included in our  packages. Your guide will suggest about delicious and fresh food during the trekking, hygienic and each place special food during your trip. Mountain restaurant owner prefers that not to order many dishes and waste food as they would like to cater more trekkers with limited food before runoff stuck. It’s a week or more day’s hard works to Porters and caravans to bring food to these places. During this trekking you will usually have breakfast and dinner at the same Lodge, Lunch will be eaten at one of the trail side restaurants on route while you walking during the day.

The Lodges are fairly basic. The room is spare with twin, single, and triple beds but most of the hotels has twin rooms more than others and very little additional furniture to keep your gears separate. Blankets are generally provided. There is a large dining hall warmed by the Bukhara stove (an iron cylinder, fitted with a chimney duct, in which a log fire is lighted. There is normally no electric lighting in the room unless the village has hydroelectric power. The dining room usually has solar lighting.
Most tea houses now also have electricity for charging small appliances- mobile phones and cameras- and there will be a small charge for this. 

Drinking water

Mountain Magic Treks provides unlimited chlorine/lodine treated water on the trek. All the tea houses have mineral water and boiled water for trekkers upon additional cost but cost is very high so that we advise to buy empty bottle and use tap water which using at the restaurants kitchen and can use chlorine / lodine . We discourage the purchase of mineral water and bottled water while on the trek as plastic bottles and difficult to dispose of and have become an environmental problem.

Great trekking with awesome guide!

We did an extended Poon Hill trek during Monsoon season in August. Despite some rain, it was a really enjoyable trip. Our guide Phurba was really the best guide you could imagine. He knows a lot of the mountains and the surroundings and can tell you nice stories of his previous hikes through all of Nepal. He was willing to help you as much as possible where needed.

We hiked for seven days and it was the highlight of our trip to Nepal.

Awesome trek, even better guide

I visited Nepal in March 2017 with a small group of friends. Our guide Phurba made the trip unforgettable. We originally planned to do ABC but bad weather and avalanches made the trek undoable. Phurba made sure to make alternate plans for us and ended up leading us to an unforgettable trek to Poon Hill. His expertise and knowledge of the mountains are unbeatable. Phurba had the best stories to tell and shared facts about the mountains as well as the people in the villages; it gave us so much more perspective and context as we were trekking. His insights and sharings really made our experience richer.

I also suffered from altitude sickness and an upset stomach for almost the entire trek. Phurba made sure to stay behind with me when I hiked slower than everyone else, and was patient and considerate in making sure that I was feeling ok. He made sure I always got hot water whenever we took a break at a teahouse.

Trekking with Phurba was so much more than just a guided hike; it was a culturally rich experience. We became close friends with the guide and his whole team and all keep in touch to this day. I highly recommend Mountain Magic Treks and Phurba Shurpa for your next adventure in Nepal.
