Mardi Himal Trekking is a popular trekking route located in the Annapurna region of Nepal. It's a relatively new trekking trail that offers stunning views of the Annapurna mountain range, including Mount Machapuchare (also known as Fishtail), which is considered sacred by the locals. Here are some key points about the Mardi Himal Trekking: Duration: The trek typically takes around 5 to 7 days, depending on the starting and ending points, as well as your pace. It's a shorter trek compared to some of the longer ones in the region, making it suitable for trekkers with limited time. Difficulty: The Mardi Himal Trek is considered to be of moderate difficulty. While it's not as challenging as some of the more strenuous treks in Nepal, it still involves some steep ascents and descents, as well as a variety of terrain. Highlights: Scenic Views: The trek offers breathtaking views of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri mountain ranges, as well as the stunning landscapes of the region. Cultural Experience: You'll have the opportunity to interact with local communities, including the Gurung people, and experience their unique culture and way of life. Teahouse Accommodation: There are teahouse accommodations available along the route, providing basic facilities for trekkers to rest and recharge. Mardi Himal Base Camp: The trek takes you to Mardi Himal Base Camp, which sits at an altitude of around 4,500 meters. From here, you can get close-up views of Mount Machapuchare and other peaks. Best Time to Trek: The best time to undertake the Mardi Himal Trek is during the spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) seasons. During these times, the weather is relatively stable, and the skies are clearer, offering better visibility of the mountains and landscapes. Permits: Like most trekking routes in Nepal, you will need permits to undertake the Mardi Himal Trek. This typically includes an Annapurna Conservation Area Permit (ACAP) and a Trekkers' Information Management System (TIMS) card. These permits are usually obtained through trekking agencies or the Nepal Tourism Board in Kathmandu or Pokhara.
