Pisang Peak Climbing

Once you reach Tribhuvan International Airport (TIA), the Himalayan Marvel Adventure delegate will receive you from there then check-in in the hotel.

On this day, after breakfast at the hotel, we will meet the guide, crew members, and then a small meeting regarding our trek details. In the meeting, we will be discussing our itineraries, accommodation, transportation, services that we include and exclude, and we provide a cap, T-shirt, and bag with our company logo.

Then our city guide will take you for Kathmandu sightseeing, which includes Basantapur Durbar, Hanuman Dhoka, the busiest market of Kathmandu- Asan Bazar, Pashupatinath, and many more.

On the Kathmandu-Pokhara Highway, we drive up to Dumre, then turn off and take a different highway across the Marsyangdi River, crossing smaller villages and rice fields. After a six-hour drive, we arrive in Besi Sahar, the Lamjung District capital.

Our journey begins today with a hearty breakfast as we depart Besisahar. The trails will take us past several suspension bridges, waterfalls, and lush subtropical forests.  We make our way to Bahundanda through an uphill and downhill trek with breathtaking views of the forests and nature. We relocated the Bahuns to Bahundanda. You will know about the people’s culture and way of life in the village, which is attractive and fascinating.

Today, the trek descends to Syange village after crossing across the fields and local villages. Then cross a long suspension bridge over the Marsyangdi River. Our journey now starts steadily uphill from the river, with the final steep ascent to Jagat. We continue on the rocky path until we reach Chamje, which is arrived by a long scenic waterfall across the river.

After breakfast, we start our trip. Our walk today will take us to Dharapani in Manang. We continue along the Marshyangdi River Valley, heading for our destination. We wind our way through the mountains, descending and ascending the trail.

We will pass through spectacular natural scenery, towns, and mountains as we walk the trail. Before arriving in Dharapani, we pass through beautiful places such as Tal, Koto, and others. Our first day of walking will be made even more stunning by the breathtaking views of the surroundings as we walk along the trail.

On our way to Chame today, we pass through a few steep forested ridges and some landslides. However, we must remember to look up, as we will be rewarded with spectacular views of Lamjung Himal, Annapurna II, and Annapurna IV. We also come across a couple of small hot springs that should help us unwind for a while.

We travel through the older part of Chame, up to Telekhu, and then on to Brathang through a long, leveled trail through forests. To get back to the south side, the paths will curve around a corner, and we’ll have to cross the Marsyangdi River on a suspension bridge. As we travel from the upper Manang valley to Pisang, the road climbs gently over a pine-forested ridge before leveling out.

We will acclimate to Upper Pisang on the sixth day of the Pisang Peak Climbing. Acclimatization is critical when traveling to high elevations. It is believed to aid in the adaptation of one’s body to the current climatic conditions. This is intended to keep you from getting altitude sickness.

Following a good acclimatization day in Upper Pisang, we will begin our trek on the trail that ascends through alpine vegetation to a pasture, which is located in a flat section and is considered the best location for setting up base camp.

Today at High Camp, our adventure begins. We arrive at camp for lunch after about six hours of exhausting adventure trips. After lunch, we’ll spend some time acclimating to the elevation of 5400 meters. At the same time, we can take in the breathtaking view of the surrounding mountains.

Today is an optional day of the trip, where if we feel uncomfortable we will acclimatize here at the high camp. If we feel well, we are going to attempt the summit. Or another of this days is to check the weather if good weather then we can summit the peak otherwise we have to wait for the next day.

We start preparing for the summit climb early in the morning on the foremost day of the trip, long before the sun rises. The mountain’s rocky face is a formidable challenge to overcome, necessitating fixed ropes and the rope.

We are rewarded with spectacular views of the surrounding mountains as we near the top and finish the climb. We take in the glimpse and the moments we have at the top before returning to base camp.

After the great achievement, we retrace back to Pisang village from the base camp. From here, the trek ascends to Braga, a Tibetan-styled village. The houses are stacked on top of each other, creating verandas with the roofs of each other. The main attraction is the Gompa, which is the largest in the district and is situated on a high crag with a panoramic view of the whole village. After a while, we reach Manang, where we freshen up and spend the night.

As we climb along the east bank of Jarang Khola, trekking to Letdar aids in acclimatization to the rising altitude. We eventually arrive at the Thorung Phedi, a meadow surrounded by cliffs. Blue sheep and snow leopards have been seen in the region a few times, but Lammergeyers and griffons are very popular.

Today we take a fascinating trail that takes you up a hill and over a bridge to the spiritual city of Muktinath. Bring plenty of water and a packed lunch because there are no settlements on the way. The hill before Muktinath provides spectacular views of Muktinath and Mustang Valley, as well as the Himalayas.

On the last day of trekking in the mountains, we descend to Eke Bhati, on the banks of the Kali Gandaki River, for lunch. After lunch, we take a walk to Jomsom. The strong wind and sand blowing from your front side will make walking through the Kali Gandaki river valley difficult. You must be lucky if there is no wind all day.

After breakfast at Jomsom, we say goodbye to Jomsom and take a quick 30 minutes flight back to Pokhara. The remaining time is leisure, you can spend this time as you wish.

Breakfast in the morning and then say goodbye to the trekking crew and fly back to Kathmandu with the trekking guide. After 25 mins flight, you will drive back to the hotel and take a rest. The remaining day, you can spend on your own. You can explore Kathmandu, Thamel market, and many more.

Otherwise, drive back to Kathmandu which takes around 7 hrs. If there is heavy traffic then it will take a little bit more time to reach Kathmandu. Once you reach Kathmandu check-in in the hotel and take a rest.

The day starts with hot coffee and a delicious breakfast at the hotel. After breakfast, our city guide will receive you from the hotel then take you to the Boudhanath temple, where you will explore the stupa, monastery. Then the guide will take you to the Patan Durbar Square, where you will explore the Patan Durbar, temples, witness the Newari culture, and food. Then drive to Swayambhunath and get the view of Kathmandu valley from the top of Swayambhunath then back to the hotel.
