Kathmandu | Nepal Private DepartureThe Mardi Himal Trek (42 km) is ideal for those wishing to avoid the crowd. It will reward you with breathtaking views of some of the Annapurna region's most majestic peaks like Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, Manaslu, Machhapuchre etc. You will get to experience enough of amazing Nepalese culture as you we will be traveling, exploring, and spending overnight in villages.
Sidhing and Lwang are two of the villages you'll see on this walk. In addition, you will trek to the Low Camp and High Camp, both of which will present you with breathtaking views. You'll also have the opportunity to hike to the Mardi Himal base camp. In addition to the villages, you will have the opportunity to see the cities of Pokhara and, of course, Kathmandu, Nepal's capital.
It is important that you are in good physical shape because you will be trekking for 5-7 hours per day and will reach an elevation of up to 4,250 meters.

Begin the day by trekking uphill in the woods for another couple of hours, this section is fairly difficult. Following that, continue upwards to Lower Camp. Many people prefer to spend the night at Lower Camp, but because Bander Danda has excellent mountain views, you will continue trekking for another half hour to Bander Danda, where you will spend the night.
Accommodation: Lodge

We start the day by leaving the jungle behind and continuing uphill along the carpeted ridge and slopes, where you should get a clear view of the fishtail. You will get spectacular views of Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, and other peaks along the way.
The hike will take 3-4 hours, giving you plenty of time to soak in the spectacular scenery along the route. You must, however, be prepared for an early start the next morning.
Accommodation: Lodge
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner
Be prepared because this is going to be an incredible day!
You'll get up early for 4-5 hours of trekking. There are no tea houses along the road, so you'll carry a packed lunch. The day begins with a leisurely hike to the base camp, steep steps, and ridges. Because the base camp is positioned at 4500 meters above sea level, the views from here are spectacular. Enjoy views of Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, Fishtail, Gangapurna, and, of course, Mardi Himal from the base camp. You descend back to Middle camp after soaking in the beautiful vistas.
Accommodation: Lodge
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner
From middle camp you will continue your descent until you reach Sidhing Village, which is a 5 hour trek. Upon reaching Sidhing village, you will drive to Pokhara, a 3 hour drive.

Are you ready to live your adventure…….to take the plunge?” We were gearing up for the gruelling climb to the summit of a 20,000+ ft peak in the Himalayas and this question kept reverberating in my mind as we commenced our hike at midnight. It was the full moon and night of a lunar eclipse, as we crossed the glacier and started the steep ascent towards the summit ridge, I was panting and my mind was getting blurred ....”can you do it after so many years?” On the ridge the body had given up, it was only the mind and we kept chugging up and ahead, roped up and in unison. On the summit we took the plunge and Reccy was born.
We were all young adventurers in college - doing mountaineering, hiking, rock climbing, skydiving, scuba diving, paragliding, skiing - and then got busy with our professions….. with pharma research, in the Air Force, designing and erecting steel plants, developing software, in investment banking and private equity….and then we came back together to indulge in our passion again. But planning an adventure trip can be arduous, we struggled with these questions everytime we wanted to go out of our comfort zones again.
Hence our mission is to make it easier to search, compare, plan and book the best adventures worldwide…...so that we get inspired to Cross the Line.
