Trip Overview

Chulu West Peak Climbing offers a great opportunity to fulfill your wish of trekking and summiting a peak in the naturally blessed Annapurna region of Nepal. Among the two climbing peaks, Chulu east and the Chulu west; we are now talking about the Chulu west peak standing tall above 6,410 meters. During our Chulu west peak climbing journey an excellent view of Annapurna Himalayan ranges with cultural exploration and challenging adventures are on offer.

Chulu West Peak ClimbingWe begin our journey towards the summit of Chulu West as you arrive at Kathmandu, do the necessary preparations, and drive to Syange on a private jeep. From Syange, we start trekking towards the beautifulvillages of Dharapani, Chame, and Pisang and enter into the highest valleys of Manang. For proper acclimatization and getting familiar with  the surroundings, we spend two nights at Manang. From Manang, the trekking journey continues towards Ledar, and finally, we set up a camp at Chulu West Base Camp. Our professional climbing leaders will provide you with detailed instructions on using peak climbing equipment like ice axes, crampons, and ropes.

In the next couple of days, we push for the summit of Chulu west walking through glaciers. The climb is straightforward. Previous peak climbing is recommended but not mandatory. We ensure your 100% safety during the entire period of the trip. After a successful summit attempt, we join the popular route of the Annapurna Circuit; crossing the famous Thorong La Pass and pilgrimage site Muktinath to Jomsom. From Jomsom, we catch a flight to Pokhara and then by bus to Kathmandu.
