Trek Cost Depends on Customer’s Choice |
OVERVIEW
Mardi Himal Trek is located to the east of Annapurna Base Camp in the Annapurna Conservation Area. It is named after a small mountain which goes by the name of well, Mardi Himal. This mountain (5587 meters high) is on one of the ridges of Mount Machhapuchhre. The trek can be completed within six days (Pokhara to Pokhara). The itinerary in this article is a basic one to give you a general idea of the length and time of each day. The route can be altered in many ways. While returning, you can even exit through Lwang village. (And yeah, you can do this in reverse order too!)
Best of Mardi Himal Trek
1. Ridge Trekking
If you look at the route of Mardi Himal Base Camp in google earth, then you can see that the whole route is a straight trail done on top of a hill. After reaching Pothana, trekkers never go below the altitude of 2000m. This notable feature of the trail keeps us posted with amazing views of landscapes that lack in other when you dip into valleys.
2. Rhododendron Forest
Forests filled with rhododendrons of red, white and pink is a treat on this trail. This is one of the major attraction of the region and has always added that extra reason to trek here. But, keep in mind that these flowers only bloom in spring.
Itinerary can be customized as our customer specific requirements and can make Shorter or Longer.
