Mardi Himal Trek , a complete guide and itinerary

Mardi Himal trek is most popular trek in the Annapurna ranges and also a challenging trek, for someone who is a proper or a frequent trekker may not be as tough, but for beginners, it is very tedious and requires constant determination and that determination is rewarded with a beautiful breathtaking view of a Himalayan Mountain range. It is less challenging than Annapurna Base Camp. Mardi Himal is with an evaluation of 5587m. Situated just east of the Annapurna Base Camp trek, the Mardi Himal trek is off the beaten trek, as few trekkers make their way to Mardi Himal’s Base Camp.

On the way to trek, you can experience different eye-catching views, rhododendron forest, authentic teahouse, extraordinary views of the Annapurna, Machhapuchhre (Fishtail), and Hiunchuli Mountains. It is an overwhelming experience to see such humongous, lustrous mountains peaks so clear and white, full covered with ice.

was my first trekking experience that involved heavy trekking for about 4 days. It was exhausting AF but every meter of trek and every drop of my sweat was worth it.

When I reached to the point only to realise that I am above clouds, I can see clouds floating with my naked eyes right infront of me, it was just jaw dropping surreal moment for me. I really believe rather bet on it, that feeling, that whole heavenly experience can never get old even if I or someone goes several times.

You are guaranteed to be amazed each time.
