Overview

Nar Phu Valley Trek with Annapurna Circuit is one of the most exciting destinations in the Himalayas. It combines two amazing treks, the Annapurna Circuit and Nar Phu. This is presumably the best trek of the Annapurna region, and for individuals who need to investigate, it covers the valley and treks off the demolished intersection through challenging high passes like Kangla Pass (5320 m), the world's highest lake, “Tilicho Lake,” and the Thorong La Pass (5,416 m) with the lovely trail. The Nar Phu Valley Trek is hidden by swirls of mountain fog in front of us. From Kangla Pass at 5320 m, the eminent display perspective of the Annapurna massif shows up remotely and is denied. Our goal is the Nar-Phu valley, above the tree line on the furthest upper reaches of growth, in the precise north of the Manang area. It takes five hours to arrive at the pass that connects Nar with Manang and three other Bhotia villages in the Nyershang down the valley.

As mentioned, these days Nar Phu has something like 300 tenants who rely on domesticated animals; unlike generally Bhatia individuals, whose exchanging examples altered radically after the Nepali Government shut fringes with Tibet, the individuals of Nar and Phu Valley were minimally influenced by this change. The tortuous way heading from the valley into Tibet had never made them subject to the salt exchange, and till today, yak grouping is the groundwork of their livelihood. The Nepal government's later choice to open up Nar and Phu to voyagers has evoked minimal interest among the villagers, whose pastoral lifestyle continues. Separated from the odd specialist and climbing campaigns, he was allowed to climb Himlung, Ratnachuli, and Gachikang. Since the Annapurna Conservation Area Project (ACAP) as of late enlarged its system to incorporate Nar and Phu Valley, it is planning a suitable tourism improvement arrangement at the request of the legislature for the undiscovered valley. 

As Nar Phu Valley is in a restricted area, there needs to be a minimum of 2 people in a group with special trekking permits and at least a professional trekking guide through the authorized trekking company. We at Nepal Mother House Treks are glad to organize this trip according to your requirements: either a full package program or hiring a guide and porter. This wonderful region is an extraordinary source of natural beauty.

The Nar Phu Valley with the Annapurna Circuit journey begins with a drive of driving just about an entire day from Kathmandu to Dharapani or Koto. From here, we follow the popular Annapurna Circuit track to Koto and then deviate from the well-trod path until we reach Nar Phu. In the wake of going through this range, we trek to Manang via Kangla Pass (5,320 m), the delightful villages of Ghyaru, Ngawal, and Braga on the Annapurna Trail, then head on a side trip at tranquil Tilicho Lake from Share Chaur or Tilicho Base Camp, and again get on the Annapurna Circuit Trek at Yakkharka. In the wake of trekking in the vicinity of 4-5 days through Thorang La Pass (5,416 m) and two lovely but testing passes of this area, we close our trek at Jomsom, where we get our flight to Pokhara and later to KTM. Nowadays, the Nar Phu Valley Shortest Trek can take just 9 days due to easy road access from Kathmandu to Chame and Ngawal.

Trekkers pack just a daypack and stroll at their own particular pace. The normal Nar Phu Valley Annapurna Circuit Trek every day will be 6-7 hours. Come and join Nepal Mother House for excellent, adventurous trekking to this enchanting place. Our qualified staff is well-experienced to provide every service to make your journey comfortable and a lifelong memory to remember.

Trip FAQs

Nar Phu Valley Trek with Annapurna Circuit FAQs

Starting from Dharapani, the 19-day Nar Phu Valley with Annapurna Circuit Trek schedule is meant to help with altitude acclimation by providing a steady climb that reduces the danger of altitude sickness. Those who have more time to see the Himalayas and beginners in hiking might find this itinerary fitting. Although you know about altitude sickness, it would be wise to consider beginning a trip from Dharapani to provide even slower acclimation. We may review choices that might help make your journey more enjoyable.

Yes! You are right about the price quoted for two people. On this date, we do not have a group for this trek. So, I am more than happy to organize your private trip. This gives you more flexibility during the trip and where the group is not.
