Mardi Himal: Nepal’s Hidden Himalayan Gem

Nestled beneath the towering peaks of the Annapurna region, the Mardi Himal Trek is one of Nepal’s most enchanting yet lesser-known routes. Located east of the famed Annapurna Base Camp trail, this serene trek offers sweeping views of Machapuchare (Fishtail), Mardi Himal (5,587m), and the Annapurna massif. Often referred to as a “hidden gem,” the trail winds through rhododendron forests, alpine meadows, and rugged ridgelines, providing a peaceful alternative to Nepal’s more crowded routes. With fewer trekkers and untouched natural beauty, Mardi Himal is a perfect escape for those seeking solitude and a close connection with the mountains.
