For this, we have to develop the safety guidelines and need to adopt the global practices to return to normal. We will keep on updating the new announcement of the government and tourism sector to the travelers.

We wish our dear travelers to remain safe, plan their trip and visit in the future. Hope to see you soon.

Fishtail, the peak’s exceptional beauty keeps the visitor entranced. Being in the area, one senses its mysterious atmosphere.

The Mardi Himal Base Camp trek is a relatively unknown area that is ideal for getting away from the hustle and bustle of contemporary life.

Base Camp Trekking on the Mardi Himal is a New Adventure

Prior to 2011, just a handful of individuals were aware of the path. Among the campers, it was a hit. Camps must be established for trekkers to stay. The path was opened to the public in 2011 and is now open to all tourists. Forest Camp, Low Camp, Badal Danda, and High Camp have all received new lodges. The idea aided in the creation of a teahouse lodge trek along the path. It’s now a well-known trail for those looking for a quick and simple hike. The off-the-beaten-path walking track takes you through untouched alpine fields and into the boundless wilderness. Trekkers may also blend in with the rhododendron woods by taking a bright stroll amid the lush forests and craggy surroundings. Dhampus is a beautiful Gurung village that showcases the ethnic culture of the area.

Throughout the trek, the vista of Mt. Machhapurchhere is a major draw. Trekkers are awestruck by panoramic views of the Himalayan peaks after reaching a height of 3500m. Trekkers are enthralled by the stunning Annapurna range, which serves as a constant reminder of their commitment to attaining their goal. Alternatively, the trial provides the ideal opportunity to create a compact circuit that prevents people from returning to the same area. It also enables hikers to document a memorable local experience. For all passionate hikers, Mardi Himal Base Camp hiking might be a great journey in Nepal.

Mardi Himal Base Camp Trek Route

The route to the Mardi Himal Base Camp hike is filled with breathtaking sunrise and sunset vistas above the sky. The hike begins at Dhampus or Kande, which is about a one-hour drive from Pokhara. Through the stone-paved stairs, it goes all across the hilly terrain of Dhampus village. Deurali, at 2100m, is reached after a 4-5 hour trek. The route from Deurali leads towards the Forest camp with a moderate elevation, rushing through the beautiful woods. Following that, the journey from Forest Camp to Low Camp takes 5-6 hours.

The route then ascends to 3,540 meters and leads to the High Camp. Hikers reach the highest viewpoint after an exciting climb over the narrow slope. Always have your camera ready to capture the breathtaking picture of the Himalayas. Return the same way you came until you reach low camp, then take a pleasant road through mixed woodland to Siding Valley. Pokhara is only a short drive away. Check out our Mardi Himal Trekking page for more information.

Best Time for Mardi Himal Trek – Know the season

The weather in the mountains changes constantly, as we all know. It changes somewhat during the year. For the Mardi Himal Base Camp Trek, however, spring and fall are the best times to go. The months of September through November, as well as March through May, offer spectacular vistas. With a pure blue sky and beautiful mountain vistas, the days of spring arrive. Similarly, fall is a fantastic season to see spectacular sunrises.
Autumn retains sufficient vegetation, and the sun gracefully illuminates the mountains. A trekker can pick a monsoon for a monsoon trek, but they may have to contend with leeches and severe rain. During the monsoon, thick clouds float over the mountains, blocking panoramic views. With regular snowfall, winter obstructs the view. Trekkers, on the other hand, continue to visit the path until the second week of January in order to photograph the stunning mountain vistas.

Temperature

In the winter, temperatures can drop below -5 degrees Celsius. The early mornings and evenings are chilly, but the days may be pleasant when exposed to the sun.

Food And Accommodation during Mardi Himal Trekking – how much to carry?

The cost of trekking in Nepal is highly dependent on the trip destination and travel season. Trekking in Nepal is, in general, an adventure. If you don’t plan ahead of time, it might cost a lot of money. The cost of Mardi Himal Trekking varies depending on the number of people at your party and the number of days you walk. The budget range is influenced by your food choices, drinking habits, and level of luxury. It’s a hybrid of a lodge and a homestay experience. As the path ascends to higher altitudes, the number of options for meals and lodging reduces.

Similarly, during high season, hikers might have to share a hotel with other trekkers. Meal alternatives are substantially more diverse. Local “Dal Bhat” is a popular dish that is well-balanced, satisfying, and nutritious. Nonetheless, the menu offers a wide range of dishes such as spaghetti, noodles, and bread. You may get more information and group savings by making a short inquiry.

Things to keep in mind

One of the most popular high-altitude excursions is the Mardi Himal Base Camp Trek. It is the ideal way to spend your vacation wandering in the woods. Depending on their fitness level, trekkers may find the trip to be easy to moderate. It is a short-distance hike with gentle altitude rises. The trek leads to the Mardi Himal Base Camp, which is at an elevation of 4500 meters, which may cause altitude sickness in certain people. However, staying hydrated and informing the team leader about your health status might help lower your risks of being sick.

Before beginning your excursion, check with your operation to see if the required permits have been issued. The Annapurna Conservation Area Permit (ACAP) and the Trekkers’ Information Management System (TIMS) Card are mandatory documents. To prevent getting stuck on the path, make your reservations as soon as possible. For all adventure seekers, Mardi Himal Trekking is the ideal place. It’s the ideal vacation to get away from the monotony of everyday life.
