Mardi Himal Base Camp
Mardi Himal Base Camp Trek
A quieter trail into the heart of the Himalayas.
Escape into the mountains on one of Nepal's most scenic and rewarding short Himalayan treks. The Mardi Himal trail takes you through peaceful forests, traditional mountain villages and dramatic ridgelines, gradually opening up to breathtaking views of Machhapuchhre (Fishtail), Annapurna South, Hiunchuli and the Annapurna range.
As the trail climbs higher, the forests give way to open alpine landscapes and panoramic mountain views, culminating at Mardi Himal Base Camp at around 4,500 metres.
With Between The Peaks, this isn't just about reaching the base camp. It's about slowing down, walking through the mountains and experiencing a side of Nepal that feels wonderfully untouched.
