Pisang Peak Climbing
Pisang Peak Climbing is one of the non-expedition peak climbing in Nepal which rises opposite of Annapurna II (7937). It is considered a trekking peak by the Nepal mountaineering association.

First of all we start our journey on food with our supporting and climbing crew from Chamje after 8/9 hours drive from Kathmandu. In addition hiking up the beautiful valley to Pisang Village.

Pisang Peak Climbing Trails and More
To reach the base camp from Pisang village, the path ascends through sparse wood and pasture to a Kharka at (4,380m) which is considered the best place for setting up the base camp. High Camp is set up at 5,400m climbing to a shoulder on the South-West Ridge. Due to its well-defined ridge leads to the final snow slop, which is quite steep but not difficult to reach the summit. Hence Pisang Peak rises above from Pisang village and yak pastures in a uniform slope of ice and snow to the final summit pyramid.
In conclusion the imaging view can be seen from the summits. Descent is made on the same route to Pisang Village. From Pisang village we continue into high desert, on the approach to the Thorong La Pass (5416m). The coming down to Muktinath from the pass is equally amazing and varied. Finally in addition our trek after climbing will end at Jomsom. Finally we take a flight from Jomsom.
After summiting the peak, we will take to you either direct back to Chamje or trek continue to Jomsom via Thorong La Pass. It will depend on your time.
