Overview
The Narphu Valley (Nar-Phu) is one of the most remote and culturally rich areas of the Annapurna region. Closed to outsiders until the early 1990s, it is home to Tibetan-influenced communities who have kept their traditions, language and monasteries intact.
The trail follows a dramatic gorge to the villages of Nar and Phu, then crosses the Kang La Pass (about 5,300 m) to meet the Annapurna Circuit near Ngawal and Manang. Views open towards Pisang Peak, Annapurna II and the ranges around Manang.
Narphu suits trekkers who want wilderness, history and solitude, and it combines well with the Annapurna Circuit. A licensed guide and restricted-area permits are required; we arrange them for you.
