Mardi Hima Trekking: One Day is Enough
March to June is the perfect season for trekking in Nepal 🉑 Before the rainy season, the roads are dry, making it easy to complete a route smoothly.
Catch the tail end of spring 🍃 On the Mardi Hima route, the mountains are in full bloom, the snow is melting, and most importantly, the weather is clear, offering a rare chance to witness the sunrise and starry skies. It's a spectacular sight 👍
Why is the MBC trek beginner-friendly❓
🟡 Lightweight Challenge
A short trip of 4-5 days, with 5-6 hours of trekking per day, at a relaxed pace.
🟢 Low Altitude Gain
The highest accommodation is at 3500m, the highest altitude is 4500m, and the altitude gain is 3274m. With a scientific ascent, the chances of altitude sickness are lower.
🟣 Less Crowded
Mardi Himal was only opened to trekking tourists in 2021 and is known as the 'ABC alternative'. However, the foot traffic is only 1/10th of ABC, allowing you to truly enjoy the Machapuchare route, and during the off-season, you might even have Machapuchare to yourself!
🔵 Rich Natural and Cultural Scenery
Pristine forests, alpine rhododendrons, Nepal's national bird, the Danphe, and passing through Gurung villages, experiencing local culture and life.
⚪️ Exclusive Machapuchare Views
The entire route follows the ridge line, offering expansive views and stunning scenery, with the nearly vertical snow-capped mountains right in front of you.
