The valley is home to the ancient villages of Nar and Phu, which are very stunning and natural, with absolutely gorgeous landscapes. These villages offer a unique opportunity to experience the traditional culture and unique daily life of the locals, which are very far and untouched by modernity. The ancient monasteries, prayer flags fluttering in the wind, and the sounds of monks chanting create an atmosphere that creates a feeling of joy and peace which is unforgettable in life.

The natural beauty of the region is capable of attracting and holding the interest of anyone who experiences it. The trail offers phenomenal views of snow-capped peaks which shine just like gold when while sun hits those peaks, and look just like silver in the bright light of the moon at night. And with opportunities to see rare wildlife such as the elusive snow leopard and blue sheep, and many other wildlife which can only be found in the peaks of Nepal.

The Challenge and Rewards of Kang La Pass Trek

The Kang La Pass trek is more challenging than the Thorong La Pass, with narrower trails and steep ascents. However, the spectacular views of Annapurna III, Gangapurna, Tilicho, Manaslu, Himlung, and Saribung Peaks make the effort worthwhile and make you glad that you made that decision.

The innocent people who look happy to see new people in their society will definitely make your journey worthwhile.

After crossing one of the highest passes (Throng La Pass 5,416m), you will reach Mukinath. Mukinath is one of the biggest religious places for both tourists and the Nepali people because Nepal is a very religious country where 81.19% of people are Hindu in Nepal. Not only Hindus but also Buddhist people visit this place for the peace and warm experience. From Muktinath, we take a shared Jeep to Jomsom and fly back to Pokhara. Our trek ends in Pokhara because most of the trekkers want to spend a few extra days in Pokhara after the trek, but because our trek ends in Pokhara, we don’t take any responsibility for any of the activities of trekkers that as our contract ends in Pokhara. But on request, we can arrange the trip from Pokhara to Kathmandu as well.
