Overview
Mardi Himal and Natural Hot Spring Trek (Himal means Himalayas) is a short trek in a relatively new trekking trail in Annapurna Region, which is still less visited by trekkers and is unspoiled. As the trail sees less Trekkers, it has teahouses with minimum essential facilities. It is an easy trek that goes to the maximum altitude of 4,250 meters. In this trek we walk past small villages, valleys, terraced farms, Rhododendron forests, rivers and off course the amazing views of the Annapurna, Machhapuchre (Fishtail) and Hiunchuli mountains. On our way down we will have a relaxing healing bath in a natural hot water spring.
