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! |
