About this trip
The Mardi Himal Package offers an all-inclusive trekking experience with a little added luxury. Great for those trekkers looking to experience the true vibrancy of the Nepalese Himachal region, with time to relax and unwind at the end of the trek.
Situated just east of one of the most popular treks of Nepal (the Annapurna Base Camp trek), the Mardi Himal trek is a hidden gem. Few trekkers make their way to the Base Camp, spectacularly situated at the base of Mardi Himal and the impressive Machapuchhre (Fish Tail).
The trail goes along small winding paths, through magical rhododendron forests until you climb out of the forest at an elevation around 3,300 m. The terrain changes quite abruptly into a rugged high mountain landscape, with amazing views of Mardi Himal, Machapuchre, Annapurna South and Hiunchuli.
From High Camp you will climb up to Mardi Himal Base Camp (4,500 m) in about 3-4 hours, which offers spectacular close up views of the entire Annapurna Range.

Hiking the Laugavegur trail was an adventure! A challenging adventure for a group of slightly older than the average on the trail. We hiked, stayed in huts, were fed filling and lovely meals, lots of snacks and the odd box of beer and wine to celebrate those long days on your feet. So so worth it. Magnus and his trusty dog Fenris were master guides and I felt safe at all times particularly when the weather turned on us with Magnus helping anyone that needed it up some steep ascents and descents. It was 55km of long days, up and down hills, fun nights and good humour. Magnus is your guide. Just do it! Thank you Trekking with Purpose. Amazing.

I would thoroughly recommend the team, from Andrew , our local rep to Magnus the guide. His knowledge of the trail , its history, geography and geology was a great learning for us.

A massive thank you to Andrew and Lewis for organising the Coast to Coast UK walk and safely guiding us throughout the amazing and memorable journey. We walked with a fantastic, fun and inspirational group of people. The route was spectacular with the scenery breathtaking and constantly changing. The whole Coast to Coast trek experience was brilliant. We highly recommend Trekking with Purpose.
