A trek to the Mardi Himal takes us into one of
the most unexplored areas off the beaten track
of the Himalayas. The route passes possibly the
second largest Gurung village in Nepal. It is
locate to the north east of Pokhara, in the
shadow of Annapurna II and Lamjung Himal. Above
the village a marvelous panoramic view of the
peaks of Annapurna and Lamjung can be seen. The
first few days uphill as the trek winds along
the ridge through forests of birch,
rhododendrons, hemlock, and pines and finally
brings you right in front of Machhapuchare and
Annapurna South with Mardi Khola River winding
its way through the valley thousands of feet

enjoyable with mountain.
