Mardi Himal Trek is located eastward of the classic Annapurna Base Camp which was officially opened in 2012 for all. This trek is a hidden gem spectacularly situated at the base of Mardi Himal and the impressive Machhapuchhre.
The richly diverse terrains of Mardi Himal take us across the densely forested areas leading to the high rocky mountain trails. The trail goes along small winding paths, through magical rhododendron forests until we climb out of the forest at an elevation around 3,300 m. The landscape changes quite abruptly into a rugged high mountain landscape, with amazing views of Mardi Himal, Machhapuchhre, Annapurna South and Hiunchuli.

5.00My daughter and I have just completed the Mardi Himal trek with an absolutely wonderful guide named Krishna. Not only was he knowledgeable, helpful, patient and respectful but also very entertaining. We both thoroughly enjoyed our experience. My husband and I are hoping to complete the Anapurna Circuit next year and we will definitely be asking for Krishna to be our guide. Thankyou Krishna

5.00Krishna was our guide for the Mardi Himal Trek. He was very helpful and kind the whole time, and also very knowledgeable. He adjusted the walk to accommodate my mum as she struggles with steep down hill walking. He has a great personality and made the trip very enjoyable for us. Would definitely recommend Krishna as your next guide.
Thank you for this incredible experience!

5.00Nabu gave me an incredibly valuable experience! I've climbed mountains hundreds of times in Japan with my family, but he showed me such amazing scenery. And it was three days where | learned important lessons. Experience, not money. Relax and enjoy the mountains. Act safely. Nabu is truly the best guide! Thank you for the best time of my 45 years of life! I will definitely come back to Nepal, so I hope to ask you again!
Good memories

5.00I came to Nepal for the first time and climbed Mardihimar. We have climbed many mountains in Japan, but we have never climbed more than 4000 meters. That's why I was worried. But we had a great guide, Nabu. He is a very funny, strong, and kind guide. Thanks to him, I was able to enjoy climbing. On the first day, I was worried that I would be able to see the scenery from now on because of the heavy rain. However, I was overwhelmed by the wonderful scenery on the second and third days. I am very satisfied to see the scale of mountains that are unthinkable in Japan and beautiful mountains that cannot be seen in Japan. I will definitely rely on this company and Nabu again to climb Manasuru! Thank you Nabu!!!

5.00We had contacted this agency a few months before our trip: the person in charge, m. Dambar Bahadur KC, was very responsive during our exchanges, precise in his answers and we were able to adapt the proposed formula For the trek, the equipment loaned by the agency, walking sticks and sleeping bag, was well adapted During the trek, Anil our guide and Shiva our porter were very attentive to us. They were friendly with a very good understanding between them, always smiling and good mood. During the different stages, they offered us several breaks, to rest, drink, lunch; the pace of the walk was adapted to our pace; the nights in the guest house were most often in quieter accommodation, less frequented by groups. We had a very good experience with them, and with SISNR
