A long day devoted to the transfer of the group, the local team and the equipment to Koto (2600 m).

DRIVE FROM KATHMANDU TO KOTO (2600 M)

We leave the classic route of the Annapurnas tour to follow the course of the Naar Phu Khola to discover the high valleys of Naar and Phu, which opened to tourism ten years ago. Stage of gradual ascent through beautiful coniferous forests. Beautiful south-facing views of the Lamjung Himal. After a good hour of walking, we cross a small torrent, then the path straightens sharply for the last hour, before reaching the village of Meta where the inhabitants of Naar live during the winter months. The Khampa warriors, originally from Kham (eastern Tibet), settled in Metha after the Chinese invasion of Tibet in 1959, before being driven out in 1975 during a Nepalese military intervention. From their passage, there remain some ruins of an old fort, above the village.

Along the way, a clear view of Annapurna II and IV, the northern Kang Guru glacier and the Juna Himal. We continue hiking on a superb path carved into the rock, then we descend to the waters of the Phu Khola, which we follow for some time. We have to gain altitude again to reach the village barrier and, beyond, the village of Phu itself. Wide view of the summit of Kang Guru (6981 m), the Juna Himal to the east.

TREKKING FROM CHYAKU (3880M) TO PHU (4100M)

The rest day is essential to acclimatize. Two nights at 4000 meters altitude will not be too much to acclimatize for the climb to the Himlung base camp (4900 m). It is also an opportunity to take time in the most isolated village of this region. To the north, no obvious access to Tibet; to the south, the path has long been complicated. The people of Phu were cut off from the world. The architecture of the village bears witness to this relative isolation: we can still clearly see the old fortifications erected on a rocky outcrop. The monastery is run by a nun. Its visit is not essential, however, the point of view is worth the detour

ACCLIMATIZATION DAY IN PHU

From Phu, a few hours of walking make it possible to reach, by undulating slopes and moraines, the base camp Kari Kobler at 4900 meters. It is the new official Himlung base camp and is located on the left bank of the Pangri Glacier. We will do this stage of 800 meters of elevation gain in two days to optimize our  the conditions are favorable, we will make our base camp at the French camp which is located on the right bank of the glacier. This camp allows you to avoid making tedious round trips on the glacier to acclimatize and reach the summit. In this case, we will therefore have to cross the glacier and climb the moraine opposite to settle in (1 to 2 hours of additional walking).
