## Machapuchare: A Sacred Mountain

Unlike most Himalayan peaks, Machapuchare Peak 6,993 meters has never been officially climbed or summited. This is because it is considered sacred to locals and held in reverence. According to Gurung traditions, Macchapuchhre is the abode of Lord Shiva, protector of the region.

Famously called 'Fishtail' Peak or the Nepa's Matterhorn, is one of Nepal's most iconic and enigmatic landmarks. The Fishtail name refers to the fish-tail-like shape of its twin summits. With its distinctive fishtail-shaped double-summit, Machapuchare has captivated the imagination of trekkers, climbers, and nature enthusiasts worldwide.

The Mardi Himal Base Camp is around 4,500 meters & offers breathtaking panoramic views of mountains like Mardi Himal, Machapuchare (Fishtail), Annapurna South, and Hiunchuli.
