One
of the good-looking trekking route in Annapurna Area, "Mardi
Himal" is truly adventurous for trekking peak climbing
which lies less than 15 miles from Pokhara and is the most
southerly peak of the Annapurna range. It is the lowest
and the least climbed or visited peak. Photographs of Mardi
Himal taken in 1953 by Baisl Goodfellow first drew the attention
of western climbers, and Jimmy Roberts who, with two Sherpas,
climbed to the summit by a route on its East face in 1961.
The valleys and ridges south of
Mardi Himal are steep and heavily wooded with bamboo and
rhododendron. Obviously, the peak has superior view of
the the Annapurna ranges and certainly a fantastic one
of Machhapuchhare the better known as Fish Tail Peak.
A small number of westerners visit the valleys and ridges
south of Mardi Himal. They are steep sided and heavily
wooded with bamboo and rhododendron. Above the forest
high alpine pastures provide good grazing and a habitat
for undisturbed wildlife. in spite of it lowly altitude
the mountain evidently has a great deal of potential for
those interested in small-scale exploratory mountaineering
and the ridges, already mentioned, present palpable climbing
challenges at a reasonable standard.
