Trip Description

Pisang Peak climbing is an unforgettable and very popular peak among the trekking peak on the way to the highest pass of the world along with the good scope for exploration which lies just north of the Manang Valley. Pisang Peak stands at elevation of 6091 meters above from Pisang Valley and lush green Yak  pastures in a uniform slope of ice and snow to the final summit pyramid. Among the all trekking peaks of Nepal, Pisang Peak is considered as one of the busy and challenging climbing peak. A German expedition made the first ascent of Pisang Peak in 1955 and since then it has been something of considerable remark.

This interesting climb starts from Besisahar in the valley of the Marsyangdi river. The trail leads you through vastly constrasting flora and fauna towards the spectacular views of Mt. Manaslu and Lumjung Himal. The massif of Manang valley is really reach in unique culture and landscape. The path ascends through sparse forested areas and pasture lands to Kharka  to reach the base camp which is considered the ideal place for setting up Base Camp. There will be snow at the high camp from the end of November to the end of March. The well defined ridge leads to the final snow slop which is quite steep and little difficult to reach the summit. Summit of the peak offers truly splendid views of the Annapurna group including Tilicho Peak, Annapurna II and IV, Ghangapurna and the Glacier Dome.

Pisang Peak climbing

I surely recommend Trekking Team Group to everyone for any trips. Pisang peak was my third peak climbing and this time also it was difficult but not impossible. I did successfully with my two friend with the help of guide Birman and porter Ajay. They were really friendly along with huge knowledge of Pisang peak. Many thanks to Trekking Team Group to organize my every tip so smooth without any fault.

Additional Information

This is ADVENTURE travel, and many of the trip destinations in this site are remote areas, within under developed countries, where events are less predictable than is usually the case in. The unexpected is the norm in these areas and, despite painstaking planning and organization, our adventure trips can never be taken for granted like regular trips. Many of the places that we visit do not have the same quality of emergency health and safety services that you are used to in the developed world. Internal flights can be canceled, road transport is generally uncomfortable and unreliable, and hotels often do not approach the standards of the West.

 

IF YOU ARE NOT PREPARED FOR THIS, YOU SHOULD NOT TRAVEL WITH US. This unpredictability also means that the itineraries that we put forward for each of our trips should be seen as statements of intent, rather than as contractual obligations. A variety of factors, including weather, transport difficulties and political instability, might dictate that we change any itinerary. The trip leader will make any changes that are necessary, after consultation with the group. Only rarely will such changes be significant, and we will always do everything within our powers to minimize the effects of the enforced changes. We cannot be held responsible for the results of changes or delays, irrespective of how they are caused.
