Mardi Base Camp Trek

This day provides a steep climb through the Rhododendron, birch, oak, maple, hemlock and daphnia for most of the day, all of which are the high glaciers at a distance from one of the highest Himalaya peaks-South-Annapurna. Occasionally we will get glimpses of the rich wildlife; many of us live in this thick forest, including leopards, goats, monkeys, and many bird species. Trek to Low Camp from the hills, then with its top in form of a fishtail, the holy Machhapuchhre rises before you, its lower sides covered by the Mardi-Himal ridge now evident as a mountain different from the Fishtail range. 

We will start on the Mardi Himal top, leaving the Badal Danda, for 4-5 hours walking. We walk incredibly high to Mardi's edge with a magnificent view of the Mardi Himal and the Machapuchhre. After 1.5 hours we can get to the Middle Camp via Rhododendron timberlands. The tree lines tend to be narrower and the field is mostly made up of shrubs with restricted pathway rhododendron. We can also see "Daphne" (National bird of Nepal) on our way to a camp if you are lucky enough. We're heading up to the high house, the last target of the day. 

We walk towards the View Point at the beginning of the day early in the morning leading to our main destination-the Mardi Base Camp-at last. The Mardi Base Camp takes about 5 hours. At the base camp, we will enjoy the breathtaking scenery of the tropical flora and fauna and snowy mountains. We are going to spend some time visiting the glamorous Himalayas and the mountainous mountains and then, trek back to Badal Danda.

We will spend some time there exploring the gleaming Himalayas and snowy landscape. After spending some great time enjoying the beautiful scenes of Himalayas and capturing some beautiful memories and trek to Siding Village or Kalimati approx. 5 hrs (1,885 m). A very steep and dangerous drop takes 4 hours on the road. The rough trail takes you to the beautiful traditional Siding village where you spend the night.

The drive back to Pokhara from Siding village offers stunning natural scenery, with the lush greenery of the hillsides, the serene lakes and the majestic mountains.We will pass through picturesque landscapes, ,quaint villages, and possibly encounter local wildlife along the way. Be sure to take time to soak in the beauty of the surroundings and may be even make some stops to explore hidden gems along the route.

After breakfast, we'll be prepared to journey back to Kathmandu. The most convenient and fastest way to travel from Pokhra to Kathmandu is by flight, which takes around 25-30 minutes. Alternatively we can take a bus, which typically takes around 6-8 hours depending on the traffic and road conditions.
