Mardi Himal Trek - 7 Days
Mardi Himal Trek Overview
Mardi Himal Trek, often called a hidden gem of the Annapurna region in Pokhara, is also known as the off-the-beaten-path Annapurna Trek. From Pokhara, the gateway to Annapurna, which offers countless renowned trails, the Mardi Himal trek is prominent for its stunning close-up view of Annapurna South, Fishtail, Hiunchuli, and Mardi Himal without the heavy crowd of Annapurna South base camp and Poon Hill. The journey begins from Kande or Phedi, taking you through lush Rhododendron forests, quaint villages, alpine meadows, and high ridges leading up to Mardi Himal Base Camp. The trek is not only limited to its natural beauty, but also the ethnic groups of Nepal, like Gurungs, which completes the whole trek. Mardi Himal Trek is popular among beginner trekkers, who want a short yet rewarding journey.
Is this trek right for you?
Among its peers, the Mardi Himal Trek is considered a gem for both beginners and seasoned trekkers who want to experience a quieter side of the Annapurna. When it comes to panoramic views, Mardi is even more popular than poon hill and ABC. The trek starts from lush hills near Pokhara, with trails leading through the vibrant, colorful forest of rhododendron blossoms, and high ridges that gradually reveal a stunning, close view of the Himalayas. Unlike the crowded treks in the Annapurna Region, Mardi offers solitude and discovery with panoramas of Machhapuchre, Annapurna Range, and Hiunchuli so close you feel like you can reach out and touch them at every turn. This trek unfolds for every trekker seeking a hidden gem with a blend of accessibility, natural beauty, and unforgettable memories.
This trek is a go-to place for those who seek an unparalleled view of the Himalayan Range with a unique blend of natural beauty and cultural richness. The trails are mostly uphill but still suitable for all age groups and trekkers. If you have a heart and spirit to travel the high Himalayas of Nepal as closely as possible, then this trek is made for you.
Best time to do Mardi Trek
Mardi Trek is known for its visually stunning panoramic scenery of the Himalayan Range with a colorful forest of rhododendron blossoms. Experiencing the full potential of the journey can be quite challenging, as Nepal has two peak trekking seasons each year. Seasonal months start from March to May and September to November, as Nepal experiences stable weather, which is suitable for adventure trekking and traveling. Trekkers prefer these months due to it’s slight difference in experience.
Spring Season (March – May) / Pre-Monsoon
- Warm days make trekking pleasant.
- Less haze makes mountains visible.
- Colorful forest of Rhododendron Blossoms.
- Dry and safe trails.
Autumn Season (September – November) / Post-Monsoon
- Stable weather, perfect for trekking.
- Clear and crisp sky makes the mountains fully visible.
- Ideal time for trekking and other adventure activities.
- Golden and reddish forest.
- Coincides with major festivals: Dashain and Tihar.
Both seasons are suitable for trekking and traveling in Nepal, as Nepal experiences stable weather and offers memorable experiences. Choosing the season depends on what you want to get out of the trek, from panoramic views of mountains with vibrant, colorful forests and cultural depths.
Mardi Himal Trek – Difficulty
Nepal offers various trekking routes, from high Himalayan passes to lush hills and colorful forests of seasonal flower blossoms. Nepal is a heaven for those who seek adventure and hardship with a rewarding journey. From green hills to high alpine lands and passes, trekking difficulty varies depending on the route and region.
When considering all the factors, Mardi Trek is perfect for both starters and veteran trekkers despite the possible difficulty of the trip. The trail passes from nearby villages and takes you through the reddish forest of rhododendron blossoms and high alpine passes in just a few days, but the trek can be extended with acclimatization days. Despite such a geographical structure, the routes follow a standard pattern to make it easier for trekkers to walk uphill. The whole trip covers a maximum altitude of 4500M above sea level, which is higher than ABC. Due to the flexibility of the trek, it can be modified in accordance with the traveler's needs, making it an age-fit trek.
(If you want a shorter and challenging trip, then you can check out our Mardi Himal trek – 4-day itinerary as well.)
Facilities in the Mardi Himal Trek
Accommodation and food in the trekking region depend on the popularity and the remoteness. For instance, Everest is a remote trekking region yet offers the best and most globally known luxury facilities, from cafes to restaurants and well-developed lodges. The same can’t be said for Mardi Trek, despite its popularity; camps in the Annapurna Region after a certain altitude follow a similar design in housing, i.e., teahouses and lodges. The rooms have basic equipment with a bed and a drawer in most places, attached bathroom rooms are limited, and some lodges have a common shared toilet. At high camp, lodges are fewer and book up fast, trekkers often sit around the dining hall heater sharing stories. Despite these limitations in rooms, a hot shower or bucket baths are arranged at extra cost in high altitude, if needed. But when it comes to food and drinks, every lodge provides a variety of drinks for lunch and dinner, including breakfast. The quality of the food may not match 5-star restaurants, but it is still satisfactory. Let’s highlight some points on what you may experience in camps: -
- Lodges accommodate shared rooms, 2 people per room.
- Basic equipment in the room.
- Limited attached bathroom, possible shared toilets.
- Food varieties for drinks, lunch, dinner, and breakfast/
- Limited Wi-Fi connection, requires an extra cost.
- Mobile charging requires an extra payment in lodges.
The facilities in Mardi Trek are quite limited, but the beauty of Mardi brings untroubled tranquility, peace, and a calm state to one's mind as you take a tea break across a giant snow-capped mountain surrounded by a forest full of seasonal flowers.
Mardi Trek Highlights
The Mardi trek is known for its exceptional view of the Annapurna Range and Fishtail, including Mardi Himal. Unlike the cramped feeling of Annapurna Base Camp and Poon Hill, the Mardi Himal trek offers a secluded path through green hills and alpine grasslands. In spring, the forest is full of different rhododendron species from the very beginning of the trek, making it a pleasant and calm experience. The shift in vegetation after the low camp from green hills to alpine and dry grasslands to rocky trails showcases the perfect blend of vegetation. The Mardi trek is known for its short yet scenic views of the Himalayan Range, with a touch of Gurung culture giving it a meaningful experience.
The Gurung people are one of the main ethnic groups living in the Annapurna Region, also called Tamu. Gurung villages in lower Annapurna, like Ghandruk, Landruk, Dhampus, and Kalimati, along the trekking trails, give travelers a chance to experience their traditional and unique lifestyle with warm hospitality. Indigenous groups like the Gurung reside in hilly areas, following a traditional lifestyle, which can be seen in Ghandruk village. From the stone architecture to the humble farm life of Gurungs, the Mardi trek is not only about its undeniable natural beauty, but also the serenity of the local people as well, which truly completes this trek.
Let’s highlight some of the points on what the trek is known for: -
- Stunning close view of the Annapurna South, Fishtail, and Mardi Himal.
- Colorful forest full of different Rhododendron species.
- Cultural and architectural richness of Gurungs.
- Possible festivals like: Tamu Lhosar, Maghe Sankranti, and Buddha Jayanti.
- Traditional Gurung dances like Ghatu and Sarathi.
The Mardi trek showcases one of the beautiful natural and cultural riches. As you walk through the human legacy in villages to the abundant forest of rhododendron and transcend to the high Himalayas, reaching out to the sacredness of the mountains, the journey leaves you with pleasant memories of the people and nature.









The first day of our trip to the Mardi Himal Trek Itinerary, we will take a tourist coach to Pokhara as per our standard and itinerary, and package. 205 KM west of Kathmandu, Pokhara city is known as the City of Paradise. A complete destination bounded by the full nature of the Himalaya, and with a lake in the middle of the city, some waterfalls, gorges, etc. Pokhara is also the gateway to many popular trekking routes, like Annapurna Base Camp, Poon Hill Trek, and some village hikes. Ideally, regardless if you are beyond the limit of a high altitude trek, the Kathmandu Pokhara tour is highly recommended., There are a few options to get to Pokhara from Kathmandu:
The tourist buses leave at 7:00 AM from Kathmandu. Kathmandu to Pokhara distance is 200km drive which takes 7+ hours depending on traffic on the way. Alternatively, we can arrange a flight ticket if you would like to take a scenic flight that costs USD 101 per person per flight in Buddha Air. Also private car can be arranged on your request. Overnight in Pokhara in the Hotel Mount View or similar category.
After buffet breakfast in our hotel we leave for our trek. First, we drive from Pokhara to Kande by private car or van as per group size. We drive through small villages and houses; soon you will start our trek at Kande at the elevation of 177om. We ascend and enter the bushes and forests of rhododendron and red sandalwood with beautiful southern views. You will reach Australian Camp, a very beautiful little village. From there you can see the Annapurna mountain range, and a little of Manaslu and the Dhaulagiri range including Fishtail Mount and Pokhara valley in the south. There are good campsites and four nice lodges. It would be nice to sleep here, but for a first day the trek to Pathana (1890m) is also nice. Australian Camp is famous around Pokhara for a picnic spot with easy access and a beautiful mountain scene. This place is surrounded by red sandalwood and rhododendron forest. The trail begins through a beautiful and pleasant short descent in the red sandalwood forest, and then let’s says, “Nepali flat “to Pathana. Sometimes you will get to see few red/white NATT-signs. There is an ACAP permit check point + tourist information center as well.
Pathana to Pitam Deurali is a wonderful hike in the red sandalwood and rhododendron forest and with some little open land between, known as buffalo pasture. After some minutes on the flat there is a slow, gentle climb up and then a bit more uphill until the flat resting place at Pitam Deurali. In between you can see some ACAP signposts and our NATT- logo in red/white. If those signs are taken away, you have to follow the straight direction; do not turn either left or right. Now is the official start of the Mardi Himal Trek. Leaving behind the Trekkers Inn Lodge, there is an ACAP signpost saying Mardi Route (Forest Camp). We did paint on the pole of ACAP signpost and at the corner wall of this lodge; you also clearly see the steps on the wall between the signpost and the lodge’s, behind the side wall. When you go up the steps, you immediately turn to the right and go straight, entering the scrubby forest. Then you can follow the blue/white sign. Most of the time we painted on the tree barks as there were only a few opportunities to mark on rocks. You climb gently and in 15 – 20 minutes, you reach a little area of open land, which is buffalo pasture (you might not recognize it as a pasture for animals) where we made a larger mark on the rock in blue/white color. Coming to this pasture you might get a little confused but if you look carefully, there should be no problem finding it. After the pasture you enter a dense forest and you will gradually climb up (for 2 to 3 hrs). Then most of the time you hike on Nepali forest” flat “(a little up and down). Finally, after a short, gentle descent you reach the flat at Forest Camp. From some places between Pitam Deurali and Forest Camp, you will have the chance to see vistas of Dhaulagiri and the Manaslu range. If the weather is good , I suggest you to take a packed lunch or something to eat and plenty to drink as there are no lodges, restaurants, villages or water- only dense and very quiet forest. Between Pitam Deurali and Forest Camp there are more than two signposts showing directions to Lwang village on the other side. Do not turn left or right, just go straight, following the directions of the blue/white colored signs. This little village is surrounded by beautiful green forest. They have nice campsites as well. From here there is also a trail going down via Sidding, Lwang and Pokhara. On the western side you can see Ghandruk and surrounding villages and Modi valley. Stay overnight at Lodge.
The trail goes through the courtyard of Hotel Forest Camp and Restaurant. At the corner wall of toilet we painted and put a little arrow. You follow the blue/white mark on the tree bark. The hike is an easy uphill start from right behind the Hotel Forest Camp. After 7 to 10 minutes, you will turn right and walk straight, going gently up and down. Finally you will climb up and you will reach Rest Camp. The trail starts from the end of the right corner of the tea house and soon you can see the blue/white marks on the tree bark. Most of the time it is a gradient ascent, after just a few meters , turn right and continue straight; there is some uphill and “Nepali flat” then later there are mostly gradual trails, ascending into the dense rhododendron forest. Before 15 – 20 minutes; you reach a flat trail; finally you’re at Low Camp. There are now four lodges with restaurants and similar menus to Forest Camp. This is a very beautiful place with a beautiful campsite as well. It is surrounded by a beautiful rhododendron forest, a very quiet and peaceful environment, with a view of Machhapuchre and Mardi Himal, when the weather is clear. Stay overnight at Lodge.
You still follow the blue/white sign, entering the scrubby rhododendron forest by a gentle ascent of 10 – 20 minutes, and then start going up the trail in the dense forest till reaching the lower viewpoint (3289m). This will take 1 ½ – 2.00 hrs. Now begins a grassy slope. From here you can also see many wonderful mountain views, especially at sunrise and sunset. Now, you continue further up to High Camp, hiking mostly on the grassy slope, up steep and some narrow paths and into some little rhododendron forests. Sometimes you may find difficulty in seeing our signs, because it was very difficult for us to find good rocks at the right distances. Sometimes we also had to use small rocks to paint on so when the grass grows higher those signs may be hidden. If the weather is good, this hike is also one of the nicest, because you have the chance to walk along the yak beaten trail on an open ridge with great mountain views: the Annapurna range , Machhapuchre,and the southern green landscape; below, can be seen the very deep Modi river valley, including Ghandruk, Chhomrong, Sinuwa and Dovan . This place itself is a natural viewpoint tower! In all directions you can see breathtaking views, including Machhapuchre, Mardi Himal, Annapurna I, Annapurna South, Baraha Shikhar, Himchuli and the southern slope including Pokhara valley! This place is also very suitable for yak and sheep-you can see many yaks around. Oh, Madhav Gautam, the yak herder, gave us fresh milk! Fantastic Himalayan milk!! There are a couple of yak shelters as well. Stay overnight at Lodge.
Today you should start earlier, but do not start in the dark if you don’t know the trail. You still see blue/white signals till Upper View point. After you have hiked 20 to 30 minutes, further on to the trekker’s paradise of High Camp, there is a trail junction at the bottom of a high hill. Though it seems the real trail goes directly up through the dangerous steep hill, (and yes, some crazy trekkers and local people would take it because of the shortcut), I would never recommend you to do so, for then you would put your life at risk! Immediately from this junction you can turn to the right and you should look for the blue/white marks on the rocks. I hope they will last, even though we were not able to find the most suitable and best rocks. When you have just turned right, as I said above, you will see a flat, wide place, looking like a little dried up pond and you should walk through it. Further along you can see more marks and then continue straight for 15 – 20 minutes. After that, turn left, going steeply upwards. In another 15 – 20 minutes, you will reach a little pasture, then turn towards the left hand side and trek continually and gradually up the grassy slopes. In 15 – 20 minutes, you will join the trail junction coming up through the dangerous path. Then you follow the blue/white marks, before reaching the Upper View Point; for some hundred meters the path is very narrow. When it is covered by snow, it will be especially difficult and slippery, because both sides are very steep and you hike just along the ridge. But if the weather is good, you get a great chance to view the Annapurna I 8091m, Annapurna south 7219m, Himchuli 6441m, Baraha Shikhar (Fang) 7647m, Tent peak 5695m, Singachuli 6501m, Gangapurna 7454m, Gandarvachuli 6248m, little summit of Annapurna III 7555m, both peaks of Machhapuchre (Mt. fishtail) 6993m – 9997m and Mardi Himal 5553m, MBC (Machhapuchre Base Camp), Deurali, Dovan, Sinuwa, Chhomrong, Ghandruk and the southern slope, including Pokhara valley and MHBCW (Mardi Himal Base Camp W) 4500m, to go from the upper view point Mardi Himal Base Camp will take about 30 minutes only. Coming down to High Camp Hotel would take some 4 hours maximum. Except for some hundred meters of narrow path, it is not that difficult, as long as there is no snow on the way. This day trip is quite adventurous, beautiful, joyful and definitely worth it. Stay overnight at Lodge.
6 Hours of walk takes us to Siding. On the return trek we take a different route so completing a circuit, from Low Camp there is a trail that goes down to Siding village rather than going back down Mardi Himal back to Kokar. Siding is a traditional Nepalese village and still very much away from the busier tourist treks and it is likely you will stay at a homestay in Siding owned by the person who runs one of the lodges at Low Camp. It is a wonderful cultural experience finding out more about village life and you will probably eat dhal baht in the evening with the family in their kitchen. Overnight at Homestay or Teahouse or Lodge.
From Kalimati, you walk out to the road head at Lumre via the beautiful rural village of Ghalel. At Lumre, you will meet your car, organized by us in advance to drive you back to Pokhara. Overnight at the Hotel.
Your Mardi Himal Trek comes to an end with the Wilderness Excursion. You have choices to extend your stay in Pokhara to relax here or drive to Chitwan National Park for an awesome jungle safari. From Pokhara, you can also go to Lumbini – the birthplace of Sakyamuni Buddha. The tourist bus ticket is included if you are coming back to Kathmandu.

Myths and stories of the Annapurna Region
According to legends, Machhapuchre (fishtail) is believed to be the home of Lord Shiva. The sharp ridges and icy summit are believed to be his throne. Because of these sacred beliefs, the mountain is off-limits to climbers, making it one of the few major Himalayan peaks never officially summited. In fact, in 1957, a British expedition reached just below the summit but returned out of respect. Since then, it has remained untouched and pure. Locals also believe Machhapuchre stands as a protector of the Annapurna Valley, watching over travelers and villages alike. The name Machhapuchre or Fishtail originated from its unique fishtail shape; some say it resembles the trident of Shiva.
Machhapuchre is one of Nepal’s most sacred peaks and is directly tied to the Mardi Himal region since Mardi lies on its eastern ridge. Mardi is often seen as a spiritual companion of the fishtail and a resting place of the gods where shamans and monks once meditated. The lower altitudes of the Mardi trek are said to be inhabited by spirits and deities who test the purity of the traveler's heart. Those who travel with malice and greed are faced with misfortunes on the trail.
Mardi Himal is located to the north of Pokhara city. It is a famous one week trekking destination in Annapurna region in Gandaki Province. Mardi Himal Base Camp that is situated at the elevation of 4500 meters below Mardi Himal (5,587m). From Annapurna Base Camp, it is to the east and literally it is below fabulous Mount Machhapuchhre (6993m) that is also known as Mount Fishtail.
Like the other areas in Nepal, Mardi Himal Trek faces four seasons namely, autumn, spring, summer and winter. All these seasons fall under different months and have various weather and climatic variations. Usually Mardi Himal trek is doable between September - June. Mid September to May are dry months in Nepal. Let us discuss the best time of the year for Mardi Himal Trek.
Mid September – November: This is the peak trekking season in Nepal. September to November belong to fall season. It has mid temperature, low lands are green and blue sky in the.
December – February: It is winter and Mardi Himal is doable in this time. There is chance of heavy snow fall if the weather is bad; it is cold in higher places but it in not unbearable. Sufficient warm clothing is high suggested if you are trekking in winter.
March - May: Which is spring season, the second best time to trek in Nepal and Mardi too. It is time of rhododendron bloom. There is rare chances of rain and thunder storm sometimes and also chances of snowfall in March as well.
June – August: It is summer or monsoon time in Nepal. Mardi Himal trek can be very wet and views can be cloudy most of the times. Rare chances of blue sky and stunning view sometimes. Leeches are so active on the Mardi Himal route, mostly on the trail between Dhampus – Low Camp. However it is best time to trek for botanical researchers and alpine flower lovers. It is quiet and peace as there are less trekkers.
Guide hire cost USD 25 a day + 13% vat
Trekking Permits USD 40 per head
Tranfers USD 25 per head based on 2 people group size
Meals: USD 3-5 per meals, tea / coffee USD 0.7 to USD 1

To avoid AMS (Altitude Mountain Sickness), you should follow the trekking guidelines and protocols that help prevent it. Typically, it is advised gentle hike, gradual altitude gain, and avoid drinking and smoking, and trek with an experienced and certified guide to ensure your trek is safe.
Mardi Himal View Point, which lies at an altitude of 4200 meters (13800 ft.) that provides a mesmerizing view. Usually, hike in the morning to Mardi Himal View point and Mardi Himal Base Camp (4,500 m) in the morning and retrace back according to your plan and itinerary. It is approximately 1.5 hours to reach View Point from Mardi Himal High Camp
In term of difficulty it doesn’t require any technical and ice picks needed but it goes up to 4500 meter in short time (3-4 days) and the highest elevation you sleep is at 3700 meter. The trail is mountain and it not well paved, goes through dense forest, tree roots, rocky sections and mountain terrain. The exact level of difficulty depends on every individual’s walking habit and stamina. Though we label this trek as Moderate or easy for regular trekkers and it can be hard for beginners or inexperienced trekkers. It is a moderate trek for young and fit trekkers. But you will gain altitude as you walk.
I think Nepal is the only country where distance is measured in hours and days. Normally we walk 9-14 Kilometer a day so this should be some 70km (43 miles). Also the distance varied by trek starting and ending points as this trek can be done in 5 days minimum and max. 7 days for relaxing trek to ensure safe and pleasant trekking holiday considering AMS (Altitude Mountain Sickness)
Sure. You are welcome to leave unused stuff at your hotel in Pokhara, as most hotels in Nepal provide free storage for guests. If you have any valuable items you wish to store, please notify your hotel and also speak directly with our booking manager at Wilderness Excursion to arrange secure storage.
