Mardi Himal Trek – 9 Days: A Peaceful Himalayan Escape

You will have fresh tracks, a breathtaking look at Annapurna South, Hiunchuli, and Mardi Himal Base Camp, and different terrains on each day of the trek. Also, this 9-day Mardi Himal Route is easy and well-traced to accommodate different fitness abilities and experience levels.
Also, this trek gives you the best opportunity to get closer to the locals. You will trek in simple teahouses, taste Nepali foods, engage with local people, and enjoy the beautiful Mountain View and natural scenery. The Nepal Mardi Himal Trek also provides an opportunity to focus on the traditional way of life in the region as well. Every move adds another layer of relatedness to the earth, to others, and the self. It’s more than hiking; It is a culture exchange disguised in the backdrop of the Himalayan mountains.
