Nar Phu Valley Trek

Nar Phu Valley  trek starts from Chamje after 9 hours driving from Kathmandu. We hike the same trail as Annapurna circuit trek. After arriving at Koto (Nar Phu Valley trek entry point) , we cross the bridge leading over the Marshyangdi River to the steep portals of the Nar Phu valley is easily missed, but although the entrance is narrow and forested, the valley system above opens up to a huge expanse of high snow-peaks, ancient villages, and high altitude grazing settlements. Trekkers until late 2002, very few westerners have explored these virtually untouched villages or climbed the many 7000m peaks surrounding it. We will venture into this remote region of Nar Phu valley. Buddhist pilgrims from around Nepal might accompany us up to Phu to visit the renowned Tashi Lhakhang Gompa and receive a blessing from Lama Karma Sonam Rimpoche. Along with spending plenty of time at these colorful and timeless villages, we explore the high alpine valleys above Phu. The Kang La (5320m) pass is amazing. We may enjoy mountains view like Annapurna II, Gangapurna, Tilicho peak.  You will trek down to Chame, Tal, and Chamje from where you can drive back to Kathmandu by public bus. If you have time, you can also continue to Jomsom via Thorong La Pass.

Teahouse or Lodge has been built. You can do camping trek as well as tea house trek. If you do tea house trekking, there is simple accommodation and foods are Nepalese dishes. Teahouse trek is comparatively least cost so that it is affordable most of you.
