Mardi Himal Trek: easy & short Trekking trail in Nepal

Mardi Himal Trek is a popular trekking destination in the Annapurna region of Nepal. It offers a relatively short and less crowded trekking route that provides stunning views of the Annapurna and Machapuchare (Fishtail) mountain ranges. Here are some key points about the Mardi Himal Trek: Duration: The Mardi Himal Trek can typically be completed in about 5 to 7 days, making it a great option for those with limited time. Starting Point: The trek usually starts from the picturesque town of Pokhara, which is a major gateway to the Annapurna region. Trekking Route: The trail takes you through beautiful rhododendron forests, traditional villages, and terraced fields. You’ll also pass by the Mardi Khola (river) and experience a variety of landscapes and terrain. Scenic Views: The highlight of the trek is the panoramic views of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri mountain ranges. Machapuchare, with its distinctive fishtail shape, is a prominent feature of the trek. Altitude: The highest point of the trek is the Mardi Himal Base Camp, which is at an altitude of around 4,500 meters (14,764 feet). Trekking at higher altitudes may require proper acclimatization to prevent altitude sickness. Teahouse Trek: Accommodation and meals are available at teahouses and lodges along the trail, making it a comfortable trek. You don’t need to carry a heavy backpack, as these teahouses provide basic amenities. Permits: You’ll need the Annapurna Conservation Area Permit (ACAP) and the Trekkers’ Information Management System (TIMS) card to trek in this region. It’s important to obtain these permits before starting the trek. Best Time to Trek: The best time to undertake the Mardi Himal Trek is during the spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) when the weather is pleasant, and the views are clear. Winter treks are also possible but may involve some snow and cold weather. The Mardi Himal Trek is a relatively less crowded alternative to some of the more popular treks in the Annapurna region, like the Annapurna Circuit or the Annapurna Base Camp trek. It’s a great choice for those seeking a quieter and more pristine trekking experience while still enjoying the breathtaking beauty of the Himalayas. As with any trek in Nepal, it’s advisable to plan your trek well, prepare for the varying weather conditions, and take necessary precautions to ensure a safe and enjoyable journey. please contact us for any inquiry Deepak Aryal Managing Director B.
