Trip Overview

The Mardi Himal Trek is a lesser-known yet increasingly popular trekking route in the Annapurna region of Nepal. This trek offers a stunning blend of rich cultural experiences, diverse landscapes, and panoramic views of some of the highest peaks in the world. The Mardi Himal Trek offers an excellent opportunity for trekkers looking for a quieter, yet equally rewarding adventure in the Annapurna region. The Mardi Himal Trek is a hidden gem in the Annapurna region of Nepal, offering breathtaking views and a serene trekking experience. It’s perfect for trekkers looking for a quieter route compared to the more popular trails in the area. The Mardi Himal Trek in Nepal is a relatively new and less crowded trekking route in the Annapurna region, offering stunning views of the Annapurna range, including Machapuchare (Fishtail Mountain), Hiunchuli, and Mardi Himal itself
