Pisang peak climbing – 18 Days

The most popular "trekkers peak" is Pisang Peak (6091 m), which is located in the Annapurna region and includes the world's highest trekking crossing, the Thorong La Pass (5416 m). The 18-day Pisang mountain climb is moderately difficult, highly specialized, and can be the best option for amateurs and beginners.

You arrive at Besisahar, the start of the trek, after a lovely journey. From Besisahar, we begin our hike along the Marsyangdi River, regularly crossing it upstream while on the trail going along the edge of the waterway. The excursion becomes even more wild as you trek through sub- and tropical dense timberland with beautiful untamed wildlife and nature. After making difficult efforts, we see Pisang below Pisang Peak.

The trail ascends to insufficient wood and field to put up base camp after following Upper Pisang. We made our way up to the southwest ridge at 5400 meters, where we put up a high camp. The following morning, as light broke over Tilicho Peak, Annapurna IV, Annapurna II, and Lamjung Himal, we reached the summit. Following the ascent of Pisang Peak, our journey takes us past Muktinath and the Thorong La Pass to Jomsom.
