Mardi Himal - A unique and unforgettable time

5.00In April 2022 I did Mardi Himal Trek with Dawa, it took ten days. Himalayan Wander Walkers and especially Dawa did an excellent job! Dawa is a very friendly, helpful person with a lot of knowledge. He did the planning and organization (e.g. permits, equipment) and could always answer my questions in advance or during the trek. When I had some stomach problems during the trek, he looked out for me and gave me some tips and advice to recover. I enjoyed chatting and spending time with him and for me, he became a friend. We met in Kathmandu and took the bus to get to Pokhara, where we spent one night. We started our trek at the next morning, walking up a lot of stairs trough the jungle, accompanied with lovely jungle sounds and many Butterflies (I felt like I was in a Disney movie). In total we hiked up to around 4200 m. For View Camp -where to see Mardi Himal and may other mountains- we woke up in the night, to walk up and see the sunrise. I absolutely loved our last stop, Lwang Gurung village! It was nice to see a lovely village and some culture. A nice last stop and place to calm down and have a hot shower. I can absolutely recommend Himalayan Wander Walkers and also Mardi Himal Trek. It was one the most amazing things I’ve done and seen in my life so far and I miss Dawa, trekking and Nepal :) Looking forward to come back, thanks you and best regards from Germany!

5.00Mardi Himal is a great trek, not too difficult and with amazing views of the Annapurna as you head to High Camp and the viewing point (4200m) or base camp (4500m). I returned through Lwang and can recommend that option. My guide Wangdu was excellent and handled everything with aplomb.
Excellent guides, great treks

5.00Have used Himalayan wonder walkers for several treks (ABC, Langtang, Pickey and Mardi Himal). In particular Dawa and Karsang are excellent guides who are great to have for both knowledge and safety. Price is very reasonable and they organise permits etc as well. Highly recommended guides.
