The Mardi Himal with Poon Hill Trek is a perfect blend of adventure, culture, and breathtaking Himalayan views. This unique trail combines the peaceful off-the-beaten-path journey to Mardi Himal Base Camp (4,500m) with the classic sunrise viewpoint of Poon Hill (3,210m).
On this trek, you’ll pass through rhododendron forests, charming Gurung and Magar villages, and terraced farmlands while enjoying close-up views of Annapurna South, Machhapuchhre (Fishtail), Hiunchuli, and Dhaulagiri. The highlight is watching the golden sunrise over the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges from Poon Hill and experiencing the serenity of the high ridges on the way to Mardi Himal.
This trek is ideal for trekkers looking for a moderate adventure that combines cultural encounters with stunning mountain scenery, without the heavy crowds of other popular routes.

Wonderful trek!
Tanka was an amazing guide who kept our Mardi Himal trek interesting and enjoyable. In addition to looking after the trek itself, Tanka was a wealth of knowledge about Nepal and the region where we were hiking. He attended to every detail of our trek with a positive approach. Even though every day’s itinerary was well-planned, Tanka was very flexible to our needs and we found ourselves moving at an appropriate pace (which was actually quicker than anticipated). I would highly recommend Tanka as a guide for any trek.
