Trekking Climbing Peaks

Island Peak - 18 Days
Region: Everest Grade: Alpine
Seen from above Dingboche the mountain does indeed
resemble an island in a sea of ice. In 1983, it was
renamed Imja Tse (6,189 m, although for most people the
descriptive name of Island Peak seems to have been
retained). This peak involves one steep and exposed 100 m
ice or snow climb, otherwise its non-technical snow climb
is enjoyable and offers some of the most striking scenery
in the Khumbu. The mountain itself is really an extension
of the South ridge of Lhotse Shar and is separated from it
by a small col.

Lobuche East - 16 Days
Region: Everest Grade: Alpine
Lobuche at the height of 6145m, is an attractive summit,
offering a variety of existing routes and a wide scope for
new lines. This peak lies in the Everest region of Solu
Khumbu district and is reached by trekking for about 7/8
days from Lukla the nearest airport. There exist two
distinct summits to Lobuche Peak: Lobuche East
(6,119m/20,075 ft) and Lobuche West 6,145m/20,161 ft). The
true East Peak is quite striking and is reached by
descending into a marked notch and climbing steep snow/ice
slopes to the top. The top is exposed and often covered
with rotten ice.

Mera Peak - 14 Days
Region: Everest Grade: Alpine
Mera is one of the most beautiful and the highest of
Nepal's permitted trekking peaks. It rises from the south
of Everest and dominates the watershed between the wild
and heavily wooded valleys of the Hinku and Hongu Drangkas,
and is not truly speaking part of the Khumbu Himal. Both
the Hongu and Hinku Valleys remain uninhabited although
there are few Kharka in the upper Hinku basin. Its an easy
snow climb from the Mera, but sometimes crevasses
complicate the route. Far and above the most rewarding
aspect of a trip to Mera is a chance to venture into a
little visited and as yet un spoilt region of Nepal, where
the hillsides are still densely forested and a need to be
self-sufficient is essential. Mera can be approached from
different directions; none are easy and some require the
crossing of high and difficult passes, making a trek to
the peak a real mountaineering adventure for which effort
is rewarded with spectacular scenery and ultimately one of
the finest viewpoints in Nepal.

Naya Kanga - 14 Days
Region: Langtang Grade: Alpine
Naya Kanga (5844m) is shapely mountain rising to the west
of the Ganja La (5,122 m), which is a popular, although at
times difficult, pass giving access to Helambu. Naya Kanga
was formerly called Ganji La Chuli. Summitting Naya Kanga
offers you a superb views of peaks close to or in Tibet.
You get stunning a panorama looking north-east over peaks
in the Jugal Himal . This climb involves a snow and rock
climb from a base camp.

Pachermo - 14 Days
Region: Rolwaling Grade: Alpine
This peak of 6187m, located in a Rolwaling region, can be
approached either from Rolwaling or from Khumbu. Both
treks have to be fully organized, as there are no
teahouses. Its an attractive mountain, but steep snow
climbing is necessary on a route subject to avalanches.
The peak is just above Tashi Lapcha. Nepal Mountaineering
Association calls this peak Parchemuche.
|
Pisang Peak - 18 Days
Region: Annapurna Grade: Alpine
Pisang Peak (6091m) rises from yak pastures above the
village in a uniform slope to the final summit pyramid,
which is an undistinguished snow and ice slope. The peak
obviously has a lot of scope for exploration and
pioneering. The whole of the western flank, which is
guarded by a hanging glacier, would appear to offer a
considerable challenge. Its a long snow slog above Pisang
village, steep snow at the top. The mountaineering school
at Manang uses Pisang Peak for training climbs.
|
Ramdung - 15 Days
Region: Rolwaling Grade: Alpine
Requires a long approach through Rolwaling valley, it is
situated south of Na in the upper Rolwaling and is one of
a cluster of peaks around the Yalung La, a pass giving
access to the upper Rolwaling from the south, via the
Khare Khola. The peaks in the areas were first explored by
the Scottish Himalayan expedition. Although the mountain
by its normal route of ascent, the glaciers or the
North-East Flank, is straightforward, its virtues lie in
its magnificent position and splendid summit panorama.
|
Singu Chuli - 14 Days
Region: Annapurna Grade: Alpine
Singu Chuli with a height of 6105m, is the mountain
formerly known as Fluted Peak. Although it has quite an
easy access, this mountain has proven too difficult for
most commercial climbing groups, so most of them
concentrate their efforts on Tent Peak. This peak of 6501m
is named for the steep ice slopes and can be approached
from Pokhara by trekking into Annapurna sanctuary.
|
Tharpu Chuli - 16 Days
Region: Annapurna Grade: Alpine
This peak, also known as Tent Peak, is situated in the
heart of the Annapurna Sanctuary, around 15 days walk from
Pokhara. It is an attractive mountain and part of the
ridge line south from Glacier Dome, that includes Singu
Chuli and acts as a central divider between the semi
circle of peaks enclosing the sanctuary. Seen from the
moraines above the huts at the Annapurna South base camp,
the mountain takes on a shape, aptly described by its
former name Tent Peak. You will have a great time climbing
this mountain with superb views of the Annapurna massive.
