Highlights

The trek to Mardi Himal usually takes around 5-7 days and starts from the city of Pokhara. The trail passes through dense forests, picturesque villages, and alpine meadows before reaching the base camp of the Mardi Himal peak. The trek is suitable for both experienced and novice trekkers and can be done throughout the year, although the best time to visit is from March to May and from September to November.

Mardi Himal is a mountain peak located in the Annapurna region of Nepal. It is a part of the Himalayas and is situated to the east of the famous Machhapuchhre (Fishtail) peak. The Mardi Himal peak has an elevation of 5,587 meters (18,330 feet) above sea level.
Mardi Himal is a relatively lesser-known trekking destination compared to other popular trekking trails in the region such as the Annapurna Circuit and the Everest Base Camp trek. However, it offers a unique trekking experience with its pristine natural beauty, serene landscapes, and stunning views of the Himalayan range.
