Nar Phu Valley trek starts from Jagat through the favoured trekking routes of the Annapurna Circuit trail. Then branches far away from Koto to follow off the beaten track to Nar Phu valley north of Manang and passes the Kang La pass with a magnificent panorama of Annapurna massifs. The Kang La pass links Nar with Manang and three other Bhotia villages within the Neyshang valley.
