Located on the outskirt of the northern Manang village is the fabulous
Chulu West Peak which has an estimated height of about 6,419 meters above sea level. Greatly considered as one of the most fascinating peaks to climb in Nepal, many climbers flock up in huge numbers to summit this outstanding west northern peak of Nepal to make their dreams come true.
Clearly many expert mountaineers and peak climbers embrace their climbing experience of climbing Chulu West and consider it to be one of the finest peak in the world where one can receive immeasurable amount of thrilling adventure accompanied by never before seen views of the
Annapurna Ranges. Initially we are scheduled to head towards
Besisahar which is a western town located just after the scenic lake city of
Pokhara. With an early morning wake up call, we drive away from the Kathmandu city and reach Besisahar after a 7-8 hours drive through several hill towns, rivers and villages. Moving onward, we put our first steps into the heartland of Annapurna region and continue hiking up towards Dharapani village. After Dharapani village, our trail climbs further up to Chame village and Pisang village which later on moves us towards the direction of
Manang village where arid landscape and windy atmosphere welcome us. Here in Manang as planned, we will be staying for one whole day to let our bodies adjust accordingly to the harsh conditions of these kinds of high altitude places. Without proper acclimatization, we won’t be able to continue on with our trek. From this point onward, we march towards north and reach Chulu West Base Camp. Now we start our climb up to High Camp and then to Camp I before making a push to the summit of Chulu West Peak. The moment we reach the summit will be the biggest highlight of our entire journey and it shall be a moment worth remembering for the rest of one’s life. After looking at the magnificent scenery atop from the summit, we shall now begin or descent down. Lastly, we now move to Jomsom via Phedi and Muktinath respectively before flying off to Pokhara city.
Our 21 days Chulu West Peak Climbing requires climbers to have the physical and mental capacity to endure demanding walks high up to the northern Himalayan region. Additionally, we recommend April to mid May and early September to end of November as the best time to go for this peak climbing. For more queries and communication about the package: Please Contact,
