Mardi Himal Trek 2027

Discover one of Nepal’s most scenic and lesser-explored trekking adventures with SGTREK. The Mardi Himal Trek is a relatively new trail in the Annapurna region, officially opened in 2012, and remains one of the Himalayas’ best-kept secrets. This short yet incredibly rewarding journey offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, Machhapuchhre (Fishtail), and Manaslu ranges.

Unlike the more crowded trekking routes, Mardi Himal provides a peaceful and pristine experience through traditional villages, enchanting rhododendron forests, alpine landscapes, and spectacular ridgelines. Highlights of the trek include the dramatic Mardi Himal Base Camp (4,500m), picturesque Siding Village, and the beautiful Gurung settlements along the trail. As the route mostly follows ridges, altitude gain is gradual, making it an ideal trek for both first-time Himalayan trekkers and experienced adventurers seeking a quieter path.

Terms & Conditions – Nepal Tours

At SGTREK, the safety and well-being of our participants remain our highest priority. Travel and trekking in Nepal often involve domestic flights and land transport that are subject to unpredictable mountain weather and operational factors, which may impact schedules. Please read the following carefully before confirming your participation.

Domestic Flights & Land Transport

Domestic flights within Nepal—including but not limited to Kathmandu ↔ Lukla and Kathmandu ↔ Pokhara—are highly dependent on weather conditions. Cancellations and delays are common.

In the event of flight cancellations or delays, any additional costs incurred—including but not limited to airport transfers, hotel accommodation, meals, flight rebooking fees, or other logistical arrangements—shall be borne by the customer.

Where land transport is used as an alternative (e.g., Kathmandu ↔ Pokhara by road), delays may occur due to road conditions, traffic, or unforeseen events. Any associated costs or changes will be the customer’s responsibility.

Impact on Trekking/Tour Schedule

Delays in flights or land transport may affect the itinerary. If the trek or tour start date is postponed due to such disruptions, the package cost previously paid will not be adjusted. A new start date will require full repayment of the package cost.

If flights or transport are delayed by 2–3 days or more and the trek or tour cannot proceed due to insufficient time, the trip will be considered cancelled, and the full amount paid will be forfeited.

Helicopter Option

In the case of prolonged flight delays (especially for Lukla-bound treks), customers may choose to travel by helicopter (heli service).

All helicopter transfer costs are to be paid directly by the customer.

Cancelled domestic flight tickets are non-refundable.

Alternative Trekking/Tour Arrangements

If customers choose to undertake an alternative trek or tour due to flight cancellations, delays, or other itinerary changes, the full cost of the new trek/tour will be charged additionally.

Customer Responsibility

All additional expenses resulting from flight delays, cancellations, accommodation, meals, or alternative arrangements will be the sole responsibility of the customer.

Customers are strongly advised to secure a comprehensive travel insurance policy that includes coverage for flight delays, cancellations, emergency evacuations, medical treatment, and trip cancellations.

Force Majeure

SGTREK or its Local Service Provider shall not be held liable or responsible for any failure to perform its obligations, or for delays, changes, or cancellations caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control.

Such circumstances include but are not limited to: extreme weather conditions, natural disasters, flight disruptions, government restrictions, strikes, political unrest, pandemics, or other unforeseen events.

In the event of Force Majeure, no refunds or compensation will be provided, and any additional expenses arising will be the responsibility of the customer.

✅ Important Note: While SGTREK will always provide every possible assistance to minimize inconvenience, circumstances beyond our control (such as weather conditions, transport delays, airline operations, or Force Majeure events) are not included in the package price. All decisions will be made with customer safety as the top priority.
