Mardi Trek is a moderate level 4-5 days trek from Pokhara to Mardi Base camp that provides us with a breathtaking view of Mt Machhapuchhre from a close range. The trek starts from Kande to Forest Camp on day 1 where you’ll have to walk through dense forest and can be frustrating at times. Ascend to High Camp on day 2 passing through Badaldanda and Low high camp. The challenging part of trek is on day 3 from high camp to Mardi base camp and you need to start the trek as early as possible. Return back and descend down to Sidhing . Take a jeep and return to Pokhara on day 4.
Mardi Trek is a beautiful adventure that combines stunning mountain views with peaceful natural surroundings. The trail is less crowded compared to other popular routes, which makes the experience calm and refreshing. Along the way, you walk through forests, traditional villages, and open ridges with breathtaking views of Mardi Himal, Machhapuchhre, and the Annapurna range. The trek is moderately challenging yet enjoyable, and the tea houses along the route provide warm hospitality and good food. It is a perfect choice for those who want to enjoy the beauty of the Himalayas in a quieter and more serene setting. A highly recommended trek for nature and adventure lovers.
Best short 3 Days trek start trek early in the morning for better views.
Very nice multi-day hike with amazing views. Compared to the most popular treks in Nepal, the Mardi Himal Trek is less crowded - which makes it enjoyable for hikers that seek some solitude. Huts for overnight stays are available along the way. They offer (tasty) food, a warm shower and beds. Pack light and space efficient - and take a head lamp for the final ascent in early morning hours.
Two days trekking in the jungle, followed by a trek to the view point/base camp. We were blessed with good weather on the day we managed to ascend. Amazing views at the viewpoint, and there was a lady serving hot tea which was very comforting. There was a lot of snow on the ground when we visited, needed crampons for the descent.
