Pisang Peak Climbing

Trip Overview

Pisang Peak Climbing serves you the best mountaineering experience in this holy land of Himalayas. As you walk through the thick flakes of snow, frozen glaciers and hot water springs, they greet your way to the summit of the peak. This unfamiliar lifetime experience in the Annapurna Himalaya Region of Nepal could be your best mountaineering practise ever.

A German expedition team were the first ones to conquer the summit of this peak. Since then, the perception of this ultimate mountain sport has dramatically changed to explorers. Considered as a technical peak-climbing route, we highly recommend you a previous experience. Even if you dont, there is nothing to worry about. We have a squad of the best assistants who would indulge you at any unexpected circumstance.

The trip starts from a scenic drive from Kathmandu to Besisahar. From this lovely spot, we then start our trekking phase and head towards Pisang through the Annapurna Circuit trail. We would get to point after 5 days of successive trekking. After then, we head towards the base camp at Kharka [2,900m/9,512ft]. At later stages, upon gaining enough elevation, we set our high camp at 5,400m/17,716ft.
