What To Expect
Mardi Himal Homestay Trek is an unseen gem and a rarely explored trekking destination in Nepal. This trek can be the best route to trek because of the least crowd during the favorable seasons, unlike the other trails. And if you want to beat the crowds, there are some excellent under-the-radar treks up the Khopra and Mardi Himal ridges to have an up-close view of the mountains and the green luscious forest at Forest Camp. Homestay means staying with local; which allows you the opportunity to learn and practice their language. Nepalese people are always so keen to teach their languages to foreigners and willing to learn English with you too.
