“Just finished the 2-day trek to Poon Hill, and wow.. what an experience! It was fun, breathtaking (literally those stairs are no joke!), and a great personal challenge. The weather didn’t quite cooperate for the sunrise view, but honestly, it didn’t even matter. The journey itself was worth it. Biru was an amazing guide, keeping spirits high, making sure I didn’t roll back down the mountain, and somehow making uphill climbs feel less like torture and more like an adventure. Highly recommend this trek and Biru—just be prepared for your legs to remind you of it the next day!”
