Mardi Himal trek
12th May, 2023
The Mardi Himal Trek was a great alternative to some of the more popular treks in the Annapurna region. The views were amazing, and we had clear views of the mountains throughout the trek. The trail was quiet, and we had some sections all to ourselves. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly, and we felt well looked after throughout the trek. I would highly recommend this trek to anyone looking for a less crowded trekking experience." - John, Canada

It was a challenging but rewarding experience that I would highly recommend." - Sarah, Australia
