Highlights
Mardi Himal is an unseen gem and an unexplored trekking destination in Nepal. Lying south to one of the most popular trekking routes which is Annapurna Base Camp trail, not many has set their foot in the trail of Mardi. This trek can be a good route to trek because of less crowd during the favorable seasons unlike the other trails. You won’t be meeting tourists or trekkers frequently like in other treks. The major attractions of this trekking is Mardi Base Camp, the traditional Nepali village Landruk, the up close view of the mountains and the green luscious forest at Forest Camp.
