If you want to discover one of Nepal’s hidden gems, I strongly recommend the Nar Phu Trek with The Great Adventure Treks & Expeditions, a Nepalese company that did an excellent job organizing our trip.
The company was highly flexible in adapting to our interests and abilities. The company manager, Mani, has been a pleasure to deal with, always responsive and helpful, starting every communication with “Namaste”, a respectful greeting in Nepalese culture.
Our guide, Prakash, and porter, Ramesh, worked as a cohesive team to make our trek comfortable, fun, and safe. They shared insights on local culture and treated us to masala tea as we sat around the fire warming our bodies after a long day of hiking. Nothing was too much trouble for this dynamic duo— good natured, kind, and gracious.
Located in one of the country’s most remote areas, the Nar Phu trek offers spectacular views in every direction. The trekking was challenging at points but the incredible scenery and the hospitality of the tea houses made it all worth it. If you’re looking for an adventure off the beaten path, then this is the trek and the company for you!
