Overview

The Mardi Himal trek is Nepal’s newest sensation — a short, stunning trek that offers intimate close-up views of Machapuchare (Fishtail) and Mardi Himal without the crowds of the Annapurna trails. In just 6 days, you walk through pristine rhododendron forests, alpine meadows, and ridgeline trails with panoramic views.

This trail was only officially opened in 2012 and remains one of the quietest routes in the Annapurna region. The high camp sits on a dramatic ridgeline with Machapuchare so close you feel you could touch it, and the Annapurna range stretching to the horizon.
