Mardi Himal Trek - Ultimate Guide To A Hidden Gem

 Mardi Himal Trek

The Mardi Himal Trek is a hidden gem when walking in the Annapurna Region. If you want to avoid the crowds on the climb to Annapurna Base Camp, you can take a detour around the edge of the map. Travelers on the Mardi Himal Trek will reach the mountain's base camp in the company of Machhapuchhre, also known as Fish Tail Mountain.

Those who have limited time or who want to have a taste of the Nepali highlands should consider this journey, as its duration is just over a week. You'll get up close and personal with Annapurna South, Hiunchuli, Machhapuchhre, Gangapurna, Annapurna I, and Mardi Himal on this breathtakingly spectacular walk through ancient rhododendron woods.



It was a bit of a surprise to see so many people trekking the Mardi Himal trail, considering this was previously the lesser-known trek in the Annapurna Sanctuary. This trail is no longer as remote as it once was, yet it is still less traveled than Poon Hill, Annapurna Base Camp, and the Annapurna Circuit.

Highlights

  • Start things off right with some excitement on the Trisuli River's white water.
  • Appreciate the sights of Annapurna South, Hiunchuli, and the surrounding mountains.
  • Hike through groves of flowering rhododendrons (in March-April)
  • Take advantage of a simple hike that most tourists pass by.
  • Experience authentic Nepali hospitality by staying in a local's home in the mountains.
What makes the trek up Mardi Himal so unique?
There is little doubt that the Mardi Himal Trek provides an "off the beaten path" experience in Nepal's Annapurna Himalaya. Since this trail was only introduced to hikers in 2012, they can experience relatively unspoiled cultural and ecological sites. This trek is a relatively easy and quick hike in the Annapurna region and offers spectacular views of the majestic Annapurna Sanctuary. You may experience the richness of Nepal's culture and landscape by trekking along the Mardi Himal trail.

The Tsum Valley Trek is a trekking trip through rough and remote areas of central Nepal. This off-the-beaten-path hiking trail has a lot of natural beauty and interesting cultural sights. People who live in the Tsum valley are called "Tsumbas." They are from Tibet and have their own culture. Along the hiking path, you'll see pine forests, waterfalls, rushing streams, and holy monasteries.
