For Himalayan addicts only! The Nar
and Phu valleys are newly opened, spectacular
regions of ethnically Tibetans inhabitants for those
of you that think you trekked all. This is a trek
that combines high peaks and passes, glaciers,
remote villages, narrow canyons, lovely forests,
amazing rock formations, yaks, gompas and unique
Himalayan cultures. Trekking the standard Annapurna
circuit, the bridge leading over the Maryland River
to the steep portals of the Nar/Phu valley system is
easily missed, but although the entrances is narrow
and forested, the valley system above opens up to a
huge expanse of high snow-peaks, ancient villages
and high altitude grazing settlements. Two long days
of walking from the border of Tibet, Tilman first
explored this region in 1950s. Closed to trekkers
until late 2002, very few westerners have explored
these virtually untouched villages or climbed the
many 7000-meters peak surrounded it. We will venture
into this remote region of Upper Manang. Camping
along the way at the winter settlement of Nar and
Phu, and visit some of the most unvisited and
interesting villages in the Tibetan Buddhist world.
Buddhist pilgrims from around Nepal might accompany
us up to Phu to visit the renowned Tashi Lha Khang
monastery and receive a blessing from Lama Karma
Sonam Rinpochhe. Along with spending plenty of time
at these colorful and timeless villages, we explored
the high alpine valleys above Phu (including Himlung
base camp for those who want to), and crossing Kang
La pass fro Nar to Ngwal on the Pisang route leading
back into the Annapurna circuit. Just in case one
5315-meter pass isn't enough, we will head west over
the Thorong La pass (5416-meter) and down through
lower Mustang, where we will spend a few days
exploring before heading on to Jomsom, and finally
fly back to Pokhara and Kathmandu. |
