Mardi Himal trek, the trail opened for trekking in 2012 but now one of the most popular and busy trekking trails among the Nepali and foreigner hikers. Short trek only for 6 days from Pokhara, located to the east of one of the famous treks of Nepal, the Annapurna Base Camp trek, the Mardi Himal trek was a out of sight for few year since it was opened. Mardi Himal Base camp trekking is a short but slightly challenging hiking trail with beautiful panoramic views and closed view of Annapurna and Machhapuchhre (Mt. Fishtail). You will trek through local villages with different cultures; incredible landscape, stunning views of silvery peaks and captivating views of rivers and striking valley are some of the highlights of this Mardi trek.

The trail goes through delightful rhododendron forest, until you ascend out of the jungle at an elevation of 3300m. The setting changes quite unexpectedly into a rough high peak landscape, with astonishing views of Mardi Himal, Annapurna South, Machhapuchhre (Mt. Fishtail) and Hiunchuli. The High Camp is set at an elevation of 3580 m and bestows amazing close up vistas of the whole Annapurna range. From High Camp, it will take 3 to 4 hours climbing to reach the Mardi Himal base camp and one can enjoy spectacular close up views of the entire Annapurna Range including Mt. Fishtail. 10 days trekking package (your total stay in Nepal but trekking days is only 6) for Mardi Himal to experience the wonderful mountain people culture while witnessing massif mountain views is a perfect hiking holiday for beginners to experienced adventure trekkers. If you want to have a different taste from the regular trails of Annapurna region, this might be your ideal choice for the next vacation.  The team of experienced mountain crew from Himalayan Mentor takes care of you on the every steps of your Mardi Himal hiking adventure by providing the guiding and quality services on the best cost.
