Annapurna circuit trek with Naar & Phu and Kang La

Those who always wanted to do the Annapurna Circuit, but missed it at its prime. The side trip to Phu will be appreciated by the culturally curious as well as the adventurer who gets an extra pass and another mighty mountain view, as well as a medieval village to marvel at. It’s also a good bet for the monsoon trekker.
