Chulu Far East Peak

Today is dedicated to preparing for the expedition. Your guide will carefully check all climbing and trekking equipment and explain the climbing route, safety procedures, and acclimatization plan. Any missing gear can be rented or purchased in Kathmandu

After breakfast, drive from Kathmandu to Besisahar, the gateway to the Annapurna Circuit. Enjoy scenic views of rivers, terraced farmlands, and rural villages along the way.

Begin trekking through lush forests and traditional villages along the Marsyangdi River. The trail gradually climbs with beautiful waterfalls and changing landscapes as you approach Chame, the district headquarters of Manang.

Trek through pine forests and narrow valleys with increasing mountain views. You’ll pass through apple orchards and traditional settlements before reaching Pisang, surrounded by dramatic rock faces.

Continue trekking into the upper Manang Valley. The landscape becomes more alpine and dry, offering stunning views of Annapurna II, III, IV, and Gangapurna.

A vital rest and acclimatization day. Take short hikes to nearby viewpoints or visit local monasteries. This day helps your body adjust to the altitude before moving higher.

Leave Manang and trek into higher alpine terrain. The trail passes through yak pastures and open landscapes with fewer trees and wider mountain views.

Today you leave the main Annapurna Circuit trail and head toward Chulu Far East Base Camp. The route becomes remote and rugged, crossing alpine meadows and glacial terrain.

Spend the day acclimatizing and practicing essential climbing skills. Your climbing Sherpa will train you in the use of crampons, ice axe, ropes, and glacier travel techniques.

Climb gradually toward High Camp over snow-covered and rocky terrain. This is a physically demanding day, but positioning closer to the summit increases your chances of success.

Start early in the morning for the summit attempt. Climb snow slopes and fixed rope sections to reach the summit of Chulu Far East Peak. After enjoying panoramic views of the Annapurna range, descend carefully back to base camp.

Descend from base camp back to Manang along the same route. Enjoy warmer temperatures and relaxed walking after the successful summit.

Continue trekking along the Annapurna Circuit toward Jomsom, passing through high mountain deserts and traditional villages influenced by Tibetan culture.

Travel from Jomsom to Pokhara by flight or road. Upon arrival, enjoy a relaxing evening by Phewa Lake after days in the mountains.

After breakfast, drive back to Kathmandu. Transfer to your hotel and enjoy a free evening for shopping or relaxation.

A leisure day in Kathmandu. Optional sightseeing, souvenir shopping, or rest after the expedition
