Mardi Himal Trek

Embark on the hidden gem of Himalayas

Mardi Himal Base Camp

Short, quiet, and outstanding trek, in the Annapurna region. Being recently opened, it hasn't become popular yet and offers its untouched beauty to every explorer.

Real slow travel experience

In a world that's always in a hurry, slow travel is about enjoying the way as much as the destination and be focused on exploring rather than visiting.

Trekking on a less-traveled, recently opened trail can provide an off-the-beaten-path experience in Nepal. This trek attracts an average of 7—10K visitors annually, compared to the Annapurna Base Camp — up to 40K, and Everest Base Camp — up to 50K.

Trekking Light

Carrying a heavy backpack in the high mountains doesn't seem relaxing. You could only keep your camera, snacks, and personal essentials and hike lightly. We take care of the rest, as the crew of porters will deliver your luggage.

Stunning

Stunning

This trek stands out among the others because of its breathtaking sight of snow-capped peaks which you can see from the first steps on the trail. This is a quite rare feature for treks in Nepal.

Comfortable Height

Comfortable Height

The highest point of trekking will be at 4.500 m., and will spend the night at 3.550 m. This height is comfortable enough especially if this is your first experience of trekking at high altitudes.

Accessible

Accessible

Short and comfortable daily hikes allow smooth acclimatization. There are no exhausting knee-breaking steps here, compared to the neighboring Annapurna Base Camp trek.

Careful routine out of civilization

Comfy stays

Every night we will stay in cozy lodges with amazing views over the mountains. The concept of a lodge is of course different from hotel experience, yet it covers all your basic needs, including hot shower, charging your devices and a hot meal in a cozy cafe with a wooden stove. Nothing can be better after an active day in the mountains.

Comfort food on the way

We will have hot meals twice a day — breakfast and dinner at the Lodges. This is going to be simple yet nourishing food. Some days, the trek will lead us through villages where we are able to have a proper lunch in the cafes. We will also have with us healthy power snacks, Chinese tea, and other treats.

Yoga practices

Start a day with a set of warming-up exercises to prepare for the challenges of trekking. Wrap up the day with a restorative practice, releasing tension and fatigue from your body after an active day. The exercises will also benefit your emotional and mental well-being while being carefully adapted to your personal needs.

Take your own pace to be

One of our core values is respect for the personal space. We realize how important it can be to have enough time and freedom during the group travels.

To achieve this we provide you with all the guidance & smooth assistance on the way:

We provide clear instructions and the day-program descriptions every morning

The exact route will be clear for you, so you will be able to walk unattended (solo)

Attentive and caring team leaders will always be ahead and behind you to ensure complete safety while being invisible

It's up to you to decide whether to walk in the company or spend the time alone

Enjoy your own pace and be focused on exploring rather than visiting

I’m Xena, your team leader

I am a 31 y.o. Ukrainian in love with mountains, yoga, and Chinese tea. After my career as a lawyer, I tried myself as entrepreneur, taught yoga in the Carpathians, and managed a yoga hotel in Bali. I have lived in Asia since 2016, and there was not a single season I skipped Nepal, except the ones during the lockdown. Over time, I realized how much I love the mountains and saw how many people around me wanted to experience the Himalayas as I do. I left my job at the hotel and started organizing mountain expeditions. It has been 6 years since that. During this time my life was changing: I returned to Ukraine and went back to Asia again, changed projects and jobs, but the Himalayas remained with me. The mountains are my passion and my source of strength.

I’m Anna, yoga teacher

I am 29 y.o., and I have devoted more than half of my life to the study of yoga and Vedic scriptures: I started practicing as a child to heal from scoliosis and fell in love with the world of yoga. Later on I did studies with A. Zenchenko, lived and taught yoga in India for some time. A few years ago, tea culture came into my life and the path led me to clay. At the moment I combine my role as a yoga instructor with teaching ceramics and running a pottery school. I adore nature and by means of clay I feel the connection with it. And nature, especially the mountains, is the best place for yoga! Imagine gentle yoga in the morning to properly wake up your body and mind, followed by a trekking through the most beautiful places in the world. And a restorative practice that relieves your body from tension and fatigue at the end of the day. Practicing yoga with me, you can expect attention to each participant, safety, focus on internal work, detailed explanations of biomechanics, work with attention and breathing.
