Nar-Phu Valley Trek



NAR PHU VALLEY TREK
Explore the secluded Nar Phu valley and high mountain passes

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Venture into a remote part of Nepal that few travelers get to see
  • Stay in ancient villages that have seen little change over the centuries
  • Experience a part of the Tibetan plateau that extends down into Nepal
  • Enjoy great views of Annapurna II, Himlung Himal, Gangapurna, Manaslu and Tilicho Peak
Nar Phu Valley Trek is an exotic journey along the north face of Annapurna, to explore the fascinating valley of Nar Phu. The trek starts from Jagat lies along the Annapurna Circuit trail, and then leaves the main circuit trail from Koto to follow the less traveled trails to Nar Phu valley. The trekkers get to explore the remote mountain valley trails in the north of Manang and pass the Kang La pass (5315) with breathtaking panoramic views of Annapurna massif. Kang La pass connects Nar to Manang and Bhotia villages in the Neyshang valley.
The exotic views of high snow peaks, ancient villages with medieval Tibetan culture, famous Tashi Lakhang Monastery, and exploring high alpine valleys are the major highlights of the Nar Phu Valley Trek. The trek to this secluded mountain valley offers an interesting understanding of medieval Tibetan culture in the region. Any trekker exploring this part of the world cherishes the natural, cultural, and historical heritages for a long time. The trek heads to the west of Nar Phu Valley Trek to reach the highest elevation in Annapurna Circuit trail, Thorong La Pass at 5416 m. Then the trekkers descend to the lower Mustang following the trails leading to holy Muktinath before heading to Jomsom. The trek finally concludes at Jomsom following flights to Pokhara and then to Kathmandu.
