Nar Phu Valley Trek is a rare chance to witness the unspoiled wilderness of the Himalayas in Nepal. It is tucked between the Annapurna and Manaslu region and offers a memorable trekking experience in Nepal's remote region. You can complete this trek in around 12 days, and the trip begins and ends in Kathmandu. The trek is graded as a demanding trek, and experienced trekkers will enjoy the trek.

The trek will reward you with spectacular views of mountains like Annapurna II, Gangapurna, Tilicho Peak, and others.  Moreover, you will be crossing the challenging Kang La Pass, which offers the panoramic view of Annapurna Massif. You will get an insight into the mountain culture of Bhotias, which is least touched by modernization. Further, you will also get an insight into medieval Tibetan culture. Trekking past colorful Tibetan chortens, mani stones, and hiking past deep canyons and gorges will make a lasting impression.
