Trip Overview

Nar Phu valley trek with Annapurna Circuit combines the trek in Nar & Phu valley with the Annapurna Circuit. Nar & Phu have been isolated from the outside world for centuries. This is why, the ancient Tibetan lifestyle still thrive in this region of Annapurna. Dhaulagiri and Gangapurna Himals look amazing from somewhere in the middle of the trek. Check out Itinerary for detailed information.

Nar-Phu valley is surrounded by Peru Himalaya to the north, high mountains called Gangla and Gangru to the east, and the Damodar Himalaya to the west. This valley is covered by snow from mid-december till the early February. Around the elevation of 4000 m, thinly shattered pine and fir forests surround both the valleys.

People here are strictly adhered to the Tibetan culture. Large gompas and chortens colored with prayer flags indicate their primary religion as Buddhism. Almost every house is two-storied with flat roofs, where they enter into their house from the roof. The economy is oriented towards agriculture and animal husbandry. Most of their daily commodities are made by themselves. For say, they stitch blankets from the fur of yaks and blue sheeps, they rear. Also, they cultivate in the arable land for food. While, they do import foods from the neighboring villages as what they grow isn’t sufficient for the all the people. Even in terms of uniqueness, they have their own tradition and language. Surprisingly, they love the way they are and are uninterested towards international trading. Trekking in this region of Nepal is simply a unique experience.

As these valleys are close to the Annapurna region of Nepal, many people wonder why this trek isn’t combined with the beauty of gorgeous Annapurna. Because of high demand of this trek, we have come with a new package that sways you towards Nar-Phu valleys along with the Annapurna circuit.

Day to Day Itinerary

Kathmandu looks amazing from the window of an airplane: dotted settlements in the middle of lush hills. As your flight descends to the Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu, one of our airport representatives will greet you with a smile and Namaste, and escort you towards your hotel, where you may ease up your jet-lagged body.

However, if you feel like strolling around, then Kathmandu Durbar Square lies within a walking distance, or you may visit the market area of Thamel.

Early in the morning, we set off on a sight-seeing tour to Kathmandu valley, which is a city of wonders. Thousands believe that Kathmandu is an open museum of arts and architecture as more than 10 architectural marvels (7 of which are listed in UNESCO World Heritage Sites) lie within the valley.

However, we cannot accommodate your visit to all these sites in a day. But we promise to take you to those sites, which are best among bests: Pashupatinath Temple (Golden statue), Swayambhunath (the vantage point of Kathmandu valley), Boudhanath Stupa (massive mandala), and Patan Durbar Square (Ancient Royal Palace of Malla Kings built in Newari Style architecture). At the end of the day, you will return to your hotel to stay.

Kathmandu to Syange is a quite long hour drive via Besisahar, which is one of the popular starting points of many treks in the Annapurnas.

Up to Besisahar is a comfortable ride as the road is pitched and the lush valley around propels a sense of contentment to all the spectators. But, as you head on from Besisahar, the trail grows bumpy and windy, eventually oscillating your body time and again, along the gushing Marshyangdi river. Nevertheless, sparse settlements and lush valley make this ride enjoyable. It takes about 9 hours to arrive at Syange, where you make a stay for the night.

The wide Marshyangdi valley gradually narrows as we move higher and higher. With a series of switchbacks until Jagat, you will be able to witness some of the beautiful waterfalls along the trail. You will continue your journey parallel to the lush valley. As you march ahead of Chamje, landslide threatened way to come in front of you to cross. After about 2 hours' walk from there, you will reach a beautiful village named Tal, situated on a plateau next to a beautiful waterfall. The glimpse is no less heavenly.

Having lunch there, you cross a metal bridge over a swiftly flowing river and subsequently follow a marijuana grown field. At the late hours of the day, you arrive Dharapani for an overnight stay.

The trail goes along the same route as Annapurna circuit trek. Walking is quite easy up to Danaque, which takes about 2 hours. It is a big village with a police check-post. As you move ahead, you will cross a river and then the trail diverges into two routes: One follows the jeep road, while other takes you to a steep but picturesque path. The trail is marked with stone steps and as you ascend with your tiresome body, you will encounter a beautiful village of Timang as a source of encouragement for the further climb. It is surrounded by lush green hills and snow-capped mountains. With a few more ascends and descends, you will arrive at Koto, where you spend your night.

Koto cuts off the trail to the Annapurna circuit and leads you towards Meta. Descending to the Marshyangdi, you will cross a bridge and subsequently, the path enters into a Nar Phu valley gorge. After walking about 2 hours by the right of the gorge, you will encounter a few new bridges to cross. Finally, you will arrive at a Dharamshala, which embarks a steep climb to Meta. The path climbs away from the river and at the end of the day, you make an appearance at Meta, which is one of the ex-Khampa settlements.

As you leave Meta, you begin to notice some of the beautiful chortens and whitewashed stupas with golden on top, vibrant with the prayer flags. Snowy peaks begin to show their grandeur along the trail. Following the zigzag way, you will spot wonderful Phu valley intertwined with narrow alleys soon after crossing mighty Nar Phedi monastery.

From here, you will encounter several forts and remnants of the Khampa settlement (Tibetan refugees who settled in the northern region illegally). Minutes before you step into the valley of Phu, a beautiful stupa welcomes your visit. Make sure you visit Tashi Lhakang Gompa, which is one of the oldest monasteries in the world.

By the time you arrive at Phu, you would have gained a very high altitude. So, it is better to acclimatize in the Phu valley, one of the hidden worlds.

This valley is sparsely populated with tiny alleys scattered throughout the plateau. Every alley leads you to some beautiful place to see. Tashi Lhakang Gompa is one of the highlights of this valley. The people here have deep faith in Buddhist culture, which is visible in their lifestyle. They rear yaks for the wool and blue sheep make their appearance at times. All in all, this is a wonderful place.

On this day, you will retrace your steps back along with the same stupa that marked the beginning of Phu valley till Nar Phedi Monastery, from where you diverge your way towards the Nar.

The trail is a fairly easy and short one. You will traverse a suspension bridge hanging over a Lobse river and then follow the snaky trail up until you meet one beautiful stupa lavished with prayer flags to arrive at Nar.

Unlike Phu, this valley is livelier and more vibrant. At day time, you can see women (attired in long Himalayan costume) chewing chat with other women of her kinds. People here are strictly into Buddhism and their culture is highly influenced by that of Tibetans. They are yak herders. They stitch blankets from the yaks’ fur. This valley is completely rural and to expect any modern-day amenities would be foolishness.

It is better to set on a sail early in the morning (if possible, before sunrise) because there is a long way to go today. The trail isn’t the problem, but the altitude is what makes trekking more difficult. Make sure you drink a lot of fluids to alleviate the effects of altitude. While climbing up to the highest point of the trek (Kang La pass), every step feels like running a marathon. The air gets thinner and the temperature grows chilly. With all the vigor when you rise to the top, you can enjoy an amazing view over Annapurna II, Gangapurna, and Tilicho Peak.

Then the trail descends until you arrive at Ngawal. It is a beautiful village to hang on. There are guesthouses, wifi and menus that are pretty extensive.

Just below the Ngawal, the entire route becomes visible. The path slowly descends to the valley and approaches to the river of Marshyangdi. From this point of the trek, Annapurna III and Tilicho Peak are seen above the flat land of the valley. Chortens and Mani walls show their appearance while on the track. When you turn north from the chorten, you can have a glimpse of the Pisang peak shining alone. After about two hours, you arrive at Mugje and subsequently follow a wonderful view of Annapurna II dominating the horizon. After a short walk, Baraka comes into sight, which leads to the Manang after a while.

Manang is indeed a very gratifying destination. Here, the prayer flags adorn the front yard of the houses, and Chortens line up the streets. The houses are made up of stones to prevent the icy wind of the mountains from hitting the families. There are several monasteries to visit, but above all, the splendid panorama of the mountain peaks appears more appealing. Manang is simply earthly heaven for mountains and cultures lover. Plus, many side trips lead off from Manang. You may either hike to the Praken gompa, Gangapurna glacier, Bocho Gompa, or the Ice Lake. Hiking to some higher altitude regions also aids in acclimatization, so we will hike to one of these side trip destinations.

From Manang, continue the trail to the Yak Kharka through the quaint village of Gunsang. Cross a suspension bridge after Gunsang and continue your journey through a big Mani wall and an astounding Chortens. Within a short while, the views of the Gangapurna glacier and other icy ranges begin to show up making the trek more interesting to walk along. Then, through the high pastures, will arrive at the Yak Kharka. Don’t head up to the Churi Ledar unless you are fine with the altitude at Yak Kharka.

Leaving Yak Kharka (translates to the Yak pastures), the trail proceeds along the ascending track and crosses a suspension bridge across the river. Then, a wooden bridge drains the pathway to the slippery landslide area, which is indeed a dangerous pathway. Follow the signposts leading to the Thorong Phedi, but be careful of the falling stones. The final suspension bridge, leading to the Thorong Phedi, offers some of the spectacular views of the snowy peaks. For the day, rest in the Thorong Phedi.

Crossing the Thorong La Pass, the highest point of the Annapurna Circuit is probably the most demanding task of the overall trekking. Progressing too quickly can victimize you from the altitude-related complications. Therefore, walk slow and easy. The Mani walls are made even in the higher trekking zones and at Thorong La pass itself, you may see the stones wrapped by the prayer flags. These stones are kept to ward off the altitude spirits. Within a while, descend to the Muktinath Temple, to enjoy the incredible views of the 2 sacred lake, 108 stone taps, and classic architecture.

Today you are driving by sharing Jeep From Muktinath Tatopani ( hot spring) -  From Muktinath head towards the Jomsom via one of the two routes: Kagbeni or Jharkot. Through Kagbeni, the trail mostly follows the dirt road. But on the other side, the path is pleasant and offers outstanding views of the landscapes and the mountains. When you arrive at the Jomsom, spare out some time to explore the marketplaces. They are worth strolling around. Then, descend towards the village of Marpha, which is just a couple of Kilometers below. From Marpha, see the views on the eastern side of the trail. They are worth watching. When you arrived in Tatopani (hot spring) then have your swimming dress and head to the naturally created hot spring. It is one of the very famous sport to chill after the Thorong La pass with cold beers or cold drinks. It is situated bank of the marsyandi river.

Today you all are driving to Pokhara saying goodbye to Annapurna trek from Tatopani. It takes 4-5 hours drive by sharing Jeep or bus.You still have chance to hilly region from your Jeep drive.Once when you reach Pokhra the again you have many nice places are waiting for you to look around.Your guide drop you in your hotel and again have rest and loom around the few lake and have a good foof of Nepal.

Amazing experiences!

We Completed the Nar Phu and Annapurna Circuit in May 2023 with Santa and a friend. I have had past experience with guides trying to dictate a set itinerary and not being very knowledgable about the mountains and culture. Santa definitely deliveres as a guide & is well worth the money. His commitment to safety really helps to build trust & his extensive experience in all regions of Nepal assure you that he will always pick the best route available at the time. He was also very flexible with the itinerary, allowing for adjustments for side treks or due to inclement weather. At the end of the trek, I thought of Santa as a friend, rather than a paid guide & would not hesitate to undertake other treks with him while in Nepal!

Fantastic experience! Helped us sort out the best trip we have ever been on!

May 2019 • Friends We were pretty intimidated with figuring out how to plan the Nar Phu Valley and Annapurna circuit trip and Santa was a major help. He helped us settle down in Kathmandu, accommodated for our out of the way itinerary and got us an amazing guide (Dawa Sherpa). We trekked Nar Phu valley with Annapurna circuit and Santa and his group ensured that we we had good support along the way. Also on our way back, there was terrible weather which can result in planes not flying out of Jomsom for days, but Santa somehow managed to get us onto the last flights that were going out that afternoon (Later heard that there were no flights out of Jomsom for two days due to weather). Would absolutely not hesitate to book with Santa for future trips.
