Talking about trekking in Nepal,
Mardi Himal via Poonhill trek is one of the easiest months. During the peak
months, this trek tends to get very busy. This trek is easily accessible for
everyone and any trekker can do it easily.
From amazing sunrise views to easier
trails and the floral beauty along the way, Mardi Himal via Poonhill is a
trekker's delight. Roving Nepal Trek would like to show what needs to be
understood before this trek.
Major Highlights of Mardi Himal via
Poonhill Trek
There are plenty of trekking
agencies in Nepal that provide service to the trekkers. Be it Mardi Himal Trek
via Poonhill or Annapurna, there are agencies to do so.
But with Roving Nepal Trek we don't
sell the package but an experience that will last for a lifetime. From the
security of our guests to a hassle-free experience, booking with Roving Nepal
Trek is different.
Some major reasons that highlight
the case are:
The Mardi Himal Trek via Poonill is
termed an easy trek. Although the route is off you get a chance to view
beautiful mountains all along the journey.
Trekkers need basic physical
fitness but it is critical to understand that you shouldn't be a pro to achieve
it. Meanwhile, basic skills and proper training from Roving Nepal Trek will
make the journey easier.
Roving Nepal Trek has also prepared
the itinerary with great care and focus. Proper acclimatization, first aid
safety, and the right experience have been the focus. So Mardi Himal Trek via
Poonhill mustn't be difficult.
The best time to do the Mardi Himal
Trek via Poonhill is from March to May and September to October.
These are the seasons for spring and
autumn. The weather in the mountains remains clear and you can enjoy the
beautiful outcome during this period.
Along with the clear trekking
trails, you have an option to enjoy the snow-capped mountains along with
glowing flora and fauna.
A lot of the trekkers at Roving
Nepal Trek perform the winter or rainy trek. But the challenges during these
seasons are on the high. Although Mardi Himal Trek is quite easier compared to
others, we don't suggest it during winter and monsoon.
Every trek is different and the cost
for every trek varies from time to time. You need to be certain about the time
you want to book a trek.
As we know the Mardi Himal Trek via
Poonhill is comparatively cheaper, it is important to understand that the cost
changes based on the facilities you wish for.
It is tough to predict the exact
cost of this trek. However, you contact Roving Nepal Trek or visit our office
so that we can guide you through the overall process and outcome of this trek.
Not every reader will be excited to
know about Mardi Himal Trek. Anyone who looks for a major thrill during the
trek might not be satisfied with only Mardi Himal. As a result of that it is
important to provide alternative routes.
Not only Mardi Himal, but Roving
Nepal Trek has other trekking package options that could be more thrilling and
take more or less time. The alternative options include:
It doesn't matter which trail you
are planning to trek in Nepal, legal permits are a must. But with Roving Nepal
Trek we will take care of all the permits.
You will have an option to fully
enjoy the trek without worrying about which permit to get cleared. First of
all, a TIMS card will be needed. You can get it from the Tourism Board in
Kathmandu.
Secondly, all the trekkers must have
an Annapurna Conservation Area Project card. The cost for these permits could
be different for Nepalese and international citizens.
Without an ACAP card, entering the Annapurna mountain region is impossible. You can
easily get this permit from the Tourism Board in case you are trekking solo.
The first day will be about arriving
in Kathmandu and taking a rest. A highly professional member from Roving Nepal
Trek will be available during your arrival. He will guide you through to your
hotel and the room.
As you rest the whole day in
Kathmandu, the second day is all about traveling to Pokhara by road. It is an
8-hour bus ride with the scenic hills, and rivers flowing along with weather
changes. Through a comfortable bus ride, we reach Pokhara by the evening.
The trekking team will rest in
Pokhara and start the new day with a drive to Birethanti. It will take 1 and a
half hours to complete it. The trek journey starts from Birethanti and goes
through Modi Khola. This journey will go through ups and downs until you reach
Ulleri.
In a beautiful setup of Ulleri, we
will move towards Banthani which is covered with rhododendron and oak
woodlands. Following the Bhurungdi Khola you will reach Nangge Thanti.
Completing the journey -filled with rhodendron forest along with snowcapped
mountains we will reach Ghorepani. Trekkers have the opportunity to explore Dhaulagiri,
Annapurna South, Hiunchuli, etc.
The
journey between Ghorepani and Poonhill is a smaller one. But you will have
brilliant mountain views all along the way. After clicking images of mountains
like Annapurna, Bahari Shikhar, Hiunchuli, Nilgiri, and others we return to
Ghorepani and move towards Tadapani. By the end of the day, we will be at
Tadapani.
Today
Roving Nepal Trek will mark the journey towards Landruk via Ghandruk. As we
enjoy the views from Ghandruk the journey moves from Phedi village ultimately
to Landruk village. It is an enthralling journey of 6 hours
There is less time to sleep today as
we have to witness the sunrise. On this day the challenge gets higher as we aim
for Mardi Base Camp and return to Badal Danda. It will take 5 hours to reach Base
Camp from High Camp. After the stunning mountain views, we will return to Badal
Danda.
With the most beautiful views of the
mountains, we will be reaching towards Siding from Badal Danda. The lunch will
be taken at Siding and follow through with a shared jeep ride to Pokhara.
Sadly the time has come when we
leave Pokhara behind. After an early morning breakfast in Pokhara, we hop into
the roadways. 8 hours of traveling will take us to Kathmandu where we will be
placed in our rooms.
