MARDI HIMAL
-
The Mardi Himal Trek is one of the Annapurna Region's hidden jewels when it comes to trekking. You can travel around the map's corner and get off the beaten path, where most people would trek to Annapurna Base Camp. Instead, the Mardi Himal Trekking excursion brings you to Mardi Himal's base camp, located between Mardi Himal and Machhapuchhre, also known as Fish Tail Mountain.
The hike follows a scenic path through green hills, oak and rhododendron forests, and valleys surrounded by snow-capped mountains. One of the many beautiful features of this walk is the trek along a high ridge with views of the Annapurna range, Dhaulagiri, Mt. Machapucchre, and Manaslu.
In roughly 3-4 hours, you can climb from High Camp (3,700m) to Mardi Himal Base Camp, which gives excellent close-up views of the entire Annapurna Range. Along the whole path, there are basic guesthouses and homestays.
