Your adventure begins with a scenic drive from Pokhara to Kande, the starting point of the trek. From Kande, the trail gradually climbs through beautiful forests and mountain settlements toward Deurali.The route passes through peaceful rhododendron and oak forests, with occasional views of the Annapurna range and Machhapuchhre. As you gain altitude, the surrounding landscape becomes increasingly mountainous and peaceful.

After approximately 3–4 hours of trekking, arrive at Deurali and settle into your mountain teahouse.

After breakfast, continue deeper into the Himalayan forest toward Forest Camp. The trail winds through rhododendron, oak, maple, and bamboo forests.

This section is particularly beautiful during spring when rhododendron flowers cover the hillsides. The peaceful surroundings and birdlife make the walk an enjoyable introduction to the higher Himalayan environment.

After several hours of walking, reach Forest Camp and spend the night in a comfortable teahouse.

Today, the trail gradually climbs through the forest toward Low Camp. As you gain elevation, the dense forest begins to open and the first dramatic mountain views become more prominent.

From Low Camp, you can enjoy impressive views toward Machhapuchhre and the Annapurna range. The changing landscape, peaceful ridgelines, and mountain scenery make this one of the most memorable sections of the trek.

Overnight at a teahouse in Low Camp.

After breakfast, continue along the spectacular ridgeline toward High Camp.

The trail gradually leaves the forest behind and enters a more open alpine environment. The higher you climb, the more impressive the Himalayan panorama becomes.

Machhapuchhre dominates the landscape, while the Annapurna peaks stretch across the horizon. Walking along the ridge with mountains on both sides is one of the defining experiences of the Mardi Himal Trek.

Arrive at High Camp in the afternoon and rest for the next day's early-morning hike.

Wake early before sunrise for the highlight of your Mardi Himal adventure.

Depending on weather and trail conditions, begin the hike toward Mardi Himal Base Camp and the upper viewpoint. The pre-dawn walk is challenging but incredibly rewarding.

As the sun rises, the Himalayan peaks gradually glow with golden light. From the viewpoint, enjoy spectacular panoramic views of Machhapuchhre (6,993m), Annapurna I, Annapurna South, Hiunchuli, Gangapurna, and surrounding peaks.

Clouds often form far below the ridge, creating the unforgettable feeling of walking above a sea of clouds.

After enjoying the sunrise and mountain panorama, descend back toward High Camp for breakfast and rest.

After breakfast, begin your descent toward Siding Village. The landscape changes dramatically as you leave the alpine zone and return to lush forests.

The trail passes through rhododendron, oak, and bamboo forests before reaching the traditional mountain settlement of Siding. Here, you can experience the peaceful atmosphere and lifestyle of a Himalayan village.

From Siding, meet your private vehicle and drive back to Pokhara. The drive takes approximately 2–3 hours depending on road conditions.

Your Mardi Himal adventure ends upon arrival in Pokhara.
