Chulu West Peak Climbing in Nepal - Annapurna Foothills Treks

[annapurnafoothills]

Although Mera Peak, 6476m, is the highest permitted trekking peak in Nepal it is technically an easy climb and therefore, an excellent first peak for those without climbing experience.

The Upper Mustang Trek leads you into a region that used to be part of the Tibetan empire, and bears close resemblance to Tibet. Pure Tibetan Buddhism is followed

The Chulu west expedition is the most challenging for both climbing and expedition and it is good for those who are looking for real adventure.

Chulu is situated high above the Manang valley where you could see the breathtaking views of Annapurna II, III and IV, Gangapurna, glacier Dome, Dhaulagiri, Tilicho peak and Manaslu.

MANASLU TREKKING IN NEPAL (LARKE PASS)

[annapurnafoothills]

Island Peak, 6189m, is one of the greatest climbing peaks in the Everest Region. This trek is popular not only because it has been designed for gradual acclimatization, but because the route passes through places of breath-taking beauty which encourage you along the challenging trail to your destination.

The best season for Gokyo Chola- EBC-Island Peak climbing is from March to May and from September to November. The duration of the Gokyo Chola- EBC- Island Peak trek can be lengthened or shortened according to your preference. Annapurna Foothills Treks and Expeditions will arrange every detail of your Gokyo Chola- EBC- Island expedition; lodge accommodation, food, as well as all the necessary climbing and camping equipment.

Pokalde Peak, or Dolma Ri, 5800m, is one of the shortest and easiest treks in the Everest Region. To reach Pokalde Peak is merely a 650m climb from the base camp; it is an exhilarating uphill climb which requires short sections of scrambling up and over rocks. 

Pokalde Peak was first climbed in 1953, Via the Kongma La along its north ridge by the 1953 Everest expedition team led by John Hunt. Pokalde looks like a crenelated rocky ridge dominated by the vast bulk of Nuptse when seen from Nuptse. The mountain has a small hanging glacier, which is best reached along the ridge rising from the Knogman La. On its northern side. Although the summit is comparatively smaller than the rest, it provides a good viewpoint.

Kyajo Ri, 6186m, is shorter, steeper, and more challenging to climb than either Island Peak or Lobuje East, although it is technically easier than Ama Dablam. 

The Government of Nepal only opened Kyajo Ri peak for trekking in 2002. It is listed as a group ‘A’ climbing peak by the Nepal Mountaineering Association

The Himalayan Three Peaks Expedition is a very demanding but achievable expedition, climbing three major peaks in the Everest Region, Lobuche East, 6119m, Pokalde, 5806m, and Island Peak (Imja Tse), 6189m. 

Annapurna Foothills Treks organizes this expedition climbing in the Khumbu / Everest Region of Nepal, a great trekking circuit in the Himalayas.

[annapurnafoothills]

The Lobuche mountain consists of two different summits, Viz. east and west with the height of 6119m and 6145m respectively. A continuous ridge. Connects them but there is still a Sharp gap and a considerable distance between them. The east peak is recognized as a trekking peak where as the west is known as an expedition peak.

Lobuche being an attractive mountain offers various existing routes and also a probability of new ones. The dark triangle of its rocky east face rises down the moraines of the Khumbu Glacier to a nice skyline, forming the south ridge.

The peak of Lobuche east is reached by descending a marked notch and climbing steep snowy slopes to the top. On most occasions, the mountain is climbed on the summit ridge only as far as a subsidiary snow summit, south-east of the true peak and before the notch. This peak is identified as the false peak.
