Trip Overview

We combine two spectacular treks into one unbeatable journey into ‘old Tibet’. Experience the diverse Tibetan culture, spectacular scenery and snow peaks of the Manaslu Himal Circuit and the remote, glacial valleys and timeless villages of Nar and Phu in the upper Manang region.

Manaslu, ‘The mountain of the spirit‘, is the eighth highest peak in the world, and from upper Nubri must be one of the most beautiful ones. We trek the classic high trek around Manaslu from the historic town of Gorkha, with its wonderful ‘durbar’ or palace to Kutang in lower Manaslu and on to upper Nubri, where trade with Tibet continues as it has for hundreds of years.

The Nar Phu valleys, regions of ethnically-Tibetan inhabitants, grace us with similarly towering snow-peaks and unique culture. The trek up to Nar and Phu combines high peaks and passes, glaciers, remote villages, narrow canyons, lovely forests, amazing rock formations, yaks, gompas and unique Himalayan cultures. Closed to trekkers until late 2002, very few westerners have explored these virtually untouched villages or climbed the many 7000m peaks surrounding it. Along with spending plenty of time at these colorful and timeless villages, we explore the high alpine valleys above Phu (including Himlung Base Camp for those who want to), and then from Nar cross the Kang La to Ngawal on the upper Pisang route leading back into the Annapurna circuit.

After such a wonderful trek, and now that we are fully acclimatized, why not continue around the Annapurna Circuit via the Thorung La pass to Lower Mustang? We fly out of Jomsom to Pokhara, and then continue on to Kathmandu, truly an unforgettable journey through Nepal

This trek is truly ‘off-the-beaten-track’, and a real adventure! Don’t miss this journey around Manaslu and into remote Nar-Phu!
