Chulu West Peak

The Chulu West lies in the Annapurna region in the midhills. The Peak stands at a height of height of 6,419 meters. The Chulu mountain lies in a valley beyond Manang, the peak can also be seen from the popular trekking trail of the Thorong La. Ascending the Chulu may not be quite technical like climbing the difficult peak, but you still need some experience of ice climbing as you’d pass through snow plateau, narrow ridges, and Chulu glacier before reaching the top.

The Chulu expedition begins with the trek from Besi Sahar, about 7 hours drive from Kathmandu on the Pokhara road. The valley adjacent to the Chulu, the Manang Valley is one of the world’s 0ighest valleys of the world situated at an altitude of 5000m. From Manang the route heads north to lead and on to the Chulu West Base camp. Three days are set aside for ascending the peak and you head to Thorong-La and follow the same route to come back to Pokhara and Kathmandu.
