Nar Phu valley trek is newly opened trekking destination (since 2003) located at Annapurna region. Nar Phu Valley trek is perfect for travelers who want to discover the Annapurna circuit as well as explore an untouched valley. The Nar Phu valley remains untouched by modernity. The local inhabitants, who roughly comprise of about 350 Nepalese Tibetans, have retained their age old practices. Most of them are engaged in yak herding and farming. Narphu valley 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. The Phu is the most beautiful medieval village where you can learn the real life styles of Bhote communities enjoy and have a pleasure of the fabulous and typical landscape of the valley.
