Trek Details

Mardi Himal Trek offers an opportunity to escape the Annapurna Region’s tourist trails and venture into the deep forests and high alpine pastures at the base of Machhapuchhare Himal (the famous Fish Tail Mountain). There are very basic tea houses or lodges therefore this is a camping trek. Mardi Himal Trek meanders through lush valleys, alpine meadows, lichen-laden dense forests, numerous streams and waterfalls, all the while the fascinating mountain sceneries gleaming upon the close horizon. An eco-trek in the quintessence, the path is so less used that you feel like embarking upon a discovery expedition when you pass through the route. We start the trek from Phedi near Pokhara and spend our first night in Pothana Deurali. From there we enter into complete wilderness for days until we emerge from there into the village of Siding. From Siding, we return to Pokhara and end this exciting Annapurna hike through the wild nature.

 

Mardi Himal Trek starts from Pokhara like the others in the Annapurna area. Depending on the time you like to spend, the itinerary can be customized to accommodate the total trip in less than a week or for about two weeks. You can definitely take a full plunge into the virtually untouched territories of the natural world as you acquaint first hand with the alpine flora and fauna as well as the high altitude mountain terrain. You can enjoy the sceneries of the Annapurnas including Annapurna I, Annapurna II, Annapurna IV, Lamjung Himal, Himchuli, Mardi Himal and numerous other peaks if the weather is fine.

Itinerary

Day-1Arrive in Kathmandu (1350m)

This is a perfect opportunity to check your gear, get familiar with the city, and explore Thamel, a vibrant area with shops, cafes, and local culture. Take it easy and enjoy the sights of the city, or visit a nearby cultural site if you’re feeling up for it. In the evening, rest at your hotel in Kathmandu before heading to Pokhara the following day.

Spend the evening at leisure, exploring Pokhara’s charming Lakeside area, and enjoy a relaxed dinner with a view of Phewa Lake. Stay overnight in Pokhara to rest before starting your trek.

Day-3Pokhara to Australian Camp (2060m)

After breakfast, you’ll drive for about 1.5 hours to the trailhead at Kande. From Kande, begin your trek to Australian Camp (2060m), which takes around 1.5 to 2 hours.
