The Mardi Himal Trek by Nima Adventure is a stunning “off-the-beaten-path” alternative in the Annapurna region, perfect for those seeking tranquility and spectacular close-up views of Mt. Machhapuchhre (Fishtail) and Annapurna South. This 9-day journey is considered a moderate challenge, making it accessible for first-time trekkers with a basic fitness level.
The route winds through lush rhododendron forests and along narrow alpine ridges, reaching a high point of 4,500m at Mardi Himal Base Camp. Trekkers will experience dramatic landscape shifts from subtropical jungles to high-alpine meadows where clouds often float below the trail, earning the nickname “Badal Danda” (Cloud Hill).
Upon your arrival in Kathmandu, our representative will welcome you and assist you to transfer in your hotel. Stay overnight at 4 star hotel in Kathmandu.
After breakfast, we take a private jeep to Pokhara. On the way, we can see beautiful views of mountains, hills, villages and rivers. It takes around 6 hours. Stay overnight in 3 star hotel in Pokhara.
We take a private jeep from Pokhara to Kande and start our trek to Forest Camp. Stay overnight in Forest Camp.
We start our trek after breakfast. It takes about 5-6 hours to reach Low Camp. Stay overnight in Low Camp.
After breakfast, we start our trek to High Camp. There will be spectacular views of Machhapuchhre ahead and Annapurna South to the left. The trek to High Camp (3550m) takes about 5 hours. Stay overnight in High Camp.
We start our trek early and climb along the narrow ridge to reach Mardi Himal Base Camp at 4500 meters. From Mardi Himal Base Camp, you can see the sun lighting up the full face of Annapurna South while Fishtail Mountain looms directly overhead. After spending some time at the Mardi Himal Base Camp, we descend back to High Camp for lunch and then descend further to Badal Danda, where we will spend another night.
We continue to descend down to Siding. Today is the last day of our trek. We then say goodbye to the trails and make a return drive through picturesque countryside to Pokhara.
