Mera Peak Climbing
Mera Peak Climbing 18 days

The Nepal Mountaineering Association (NMA) categorizes Mera Peak Climbing as the highest trekking peak. Mera Peak at an elevation of 6476 meters is adventurous but less challenging, requiring little or no peak summiting experience. However, it involves the preparation of proper safety gear and physical and mental fitness to trek to the steep hanging rocks and remain calm in the barren lands of the Himalayas. Climb to Mera Peak is the easiest mountaineering in the Everest region where most of the peaks stand tall over 8000 meters. Primarily, mountaineers fly to Lukla from Kathmandu and land on the world’s most dangerous airport runway. The trekkers descend off the beaten trails reaching Khare via Hinku Valley for a night stay. The beautiful Hinku valley remains unspoiled with green terrace farmlands, and Buddhist Monasteries and provides mesmerizing views around the valley inhabited by the Sherpa people.The trails are full of stunning snow-capped Himalayan Vistas, dramatic landscapes, untouched valleys, and impressive floras and faunas. The trails take travelers to the most beautiful Everest region with frozen lakes, glaciers, deep gorges, rocky paths, giant waterfalls, and hanging suspension bridges. Trekkers take sufficient time at an elevation of 4900m to acclimatize their body and mind to avoid AMS (Acute Mountain Sickness) and rest from rigorous treks at the tea houses. Further, the traveler set up two camps to acclimatize before climbing the Mera Peak (6476m) since the level of oxygen reduced drastically; one at Mera Base Camp (5350m) and another at a high camp (5800 m). The mountaineers make a final push straight up to the elevation of 6476 meters using dynamic ropes crossing the icy hanging rocks take them to the summit. The Mera Peak provides sensational 360° views of the world’s tallest mountains such as Mt. Everest (8848m), Ama Dablam (the necklace of Mt. Everest.), Kanchenjunga (8586m), Lhotse (8516), Mt. Makalu (8481), Cho Oyu (8201) and several other highest peaks. It leaves trekkers speechless and provides a lifetime memory of adventure, nature, and culture. Finally, trekkers retrace back to Lukla Airport via Zatra La Pass through quaint villages which gives a glimpse of rich Sherpa culture.Mera Peak Itinerary:Asiana Treks and Tours ensures a safe and well-organized itinerary tailored for optimal acclimatization and enjoyment. Climbers experience from lively Kathmandu to tranquil Himalayan trails, experiencing the contrast of cold nights at high-altitude camps and exhilarating summit days.Mera Peak Climbing Distance:Climbing Mera Peak involves covering approximately 125 kilometers (78 miles) of challenging terrain. You can expect to spend around 14 to 18 days on the expedition, which includes time for acclimatization and the summit attempt. Keep in mind that weather, group pace, and individual fitness can affect the actual duration and distance traveled.Mera peak climbing route:The Mera Peak trek cuts away from the more well-known route of the Everest Base Camp which is much more crowded. It starts with a flight to Lukla and then passes through the beautiful Hinku valley. Hiking needs to be gradual with stop-overs at a place like Khare. Once you get used to that, then start the actual climb to the Mera Base Camp. From there climbers put up what is called High Camp and then attempt to make the final push to the summit. The coming down also repeats the ascending pattern and the final road leads back to Lukla; the whole of the journey is filled with magnificent views.Mera peak climbing cost:The climbing cost of Mera Peak varies regarding several factors. The number of persons in the group, the type of service required; the method of transport, and the accommodation in Kathmandu also determine the price. In general, the price ranges between $2,385 AND $2,575 per person. This involves appropriate quality types of equipment and preferable accommodation facilities when practicing the exercise of climbing. It is our opinion that your choices should be yours; thus, we offer you the best that fits your preferences and pocket. In this manner, it is possible to arrange the ultimate climbing experience while paying little attention to the details.Mera Peak climbing Difficulty:Mera Peak is described as a moderate peak for newcomers to Nepal and mountaineering all in all, it is not an easy peak to climb. Like many other technical peaks, physically and mentally it is not very strenuous compared to other places but the altitude of this mountain is over 6,400 meters. Successful acclimatization is critical, as are such beginners’ techniques as double boots, crampons, and an ice axe. Of course, it is quite a payoff to get to the top but it is a challenge that needs some effort, personal fitness, and the acknowledgment of the power of nature.Mera Peak Height:Mera Peak rises to 6,476m/ 21,247 ft making it one of the tallest trekking peaks in Nepal. Another factor that can well be attributed to the difficulty of climbing the mountain is this awesome elevation. A climber has to ascend gradually due to the poor concentration of oxygen in the atmosphere at such altitude with a view of enhancing his/her likelihood of successful conquest of the mountain.About Mera Peak High Camp:Mera Peak High Camp is a rather lonely place located at the threshold of the high altitude area. Located at an altitude and climate that makes it an extremely inhospitable environment consisting of extreme cold, strong winds, and a severely low amount of oxygen. Being a base for the final attempts at reaching the summit, the camp requires a great deal of strength both physically and mentally. The climbers are exposed to extreme conditions and most of the time they have limited sleep due to the altitude they are at. Although difficult to denote given the difficult conditions experienced in High Camp, it plays a definite role in being the last chance to rest before the Mera Peak summit. Perhaps it is fortunate that the huge walls of the surrounding Himalayas, including those of Mount Everest, Lhotse, and Makulu, are inspiring and also scary and grand at the same time to help you remember that it is a huge journey you are about to undertake.Mera peaks safety:Safety is the prime concern at Asiana Treks and Tours in Mera Peak climbing. As far as the mountain is concerned, it has some drawbacks, mainly connected to high altitude, yet the agency can number a significant number of its successful climbing expeditions, most of which stated no fatalities. Nevertheless, altitude sickness persists as a possibility and we minimize it by proper itinerary, hiring professional porters, and proper gear.The guides leading this team are well trained for mountaineering, first aid, and high altitude traveler’s medical care. This way, their expertise in the destination and safety-oriented approach guarantee you the best throughout the journey. We strictly adhere to security measures and use the best equipment to reduce as many variables as possible and give you the best chance at the top.Do not worry, your safety will always be of top utmost importance to us.

The trail to reach the base village is from Lukla via Paiya, Panggom, Ningsow, Chhatra Khola, Kothe, and Thaknak ending at Khare which is important for acclimatization. These villages provide a taste of the Sherpa lifestyle and magnificent views of the mighty Himalayas which make for a fitting setting to prepare and attempt the strenuous climb.Best Viewpoints  on the Way  to Mera Peak Climbing:The Lobuche Peak climbing is a spectacle of the eye since the view of the Himalayas opens up before one with a marvelous delight at every stage of the trek.

This camp gives fantastic scenery of the expanding mountains like the Ama Dablam, Makalu, Baruntse, etc. Crampon Point:Prepare for the summit at the crampon point where one has to fix the crampons before crossing the glacier. This vista is rather challenging but at the same time very stimulating. You will be presented with a view of the glacier below as well as a steep and fine finale that is the summit ridge.

Starting from Kathmandu, adventurers embark on a scenic flight to Lukla, the gateway to the Everest region, where the journey truly begins. The trek passes through picturesque Sherpa villages, ancient monasteries, and lush rhododendron forests, gradually ascending to higher altitudes for acclimatization.Expect a mix of moderate to strenuous trekking days, with challenging steep sections as you approach the summit. The climb itself involves using basic mountaineering equipment like crampons and ice axes, making it an ideal introduction to Himalayan peak climbing. Throughout the journey, trekkers are rewarded with breathtaking views of iconic peaks such as Everest, Lhotse, and Ama Dablam. The itinerary also includes acclimatization days to ensure your body adapts to the increasing altitude, minimizing the risk of altitude sickness.Key highlights of the adventure include:Scenic flight from Kathmandu to LuklaTrekking through Sherpa villages like Namche Bazaar and TengbocheVisits to important cultural sites such as Tengboche MonasteryAcclimatization days with rest and light hikesTechnical ascent of Pokalde Peak (5,806m)Stunning Himalayan panoramas from the summitWell-organized support by Asiana Treks and Tours, including guides and portersThis adventure is perfect for trekkers seeking a rewarding peak climb paired with rich cultural experiences in the Everest region.Oxygen Levels on the Pokalde Peak ClimbingOxygen levels play a critical role in the Pokalde Peak climbing experience due to the high elevations involved. At sea level, oxygen concentration is about 21%, but as altitude increases, the partial pressure of oxygen drops, resulting in less oxygen available for the body. This decrease can lead to symptoms of altitude sickness if climbers ascend too quickly without proper acclimatization.Pokalde Peak stands at 5,806 meters (19,051 feet), where oxygen levels are approximately 50% lower than at sea level. This means the body has to work much harder to supply oxygen to muscles and vital organs. During the ascent, trekkers may experience shortness of breath, fatigue, headaches, and dizziness. To combat these effects, Asiana Treks and Tours schedules acclimatization days and gradual elevation gains to help the body adapt.Some important points regarding oxygen levels and safety:Oxygen supplementation is usually not required for Pokalde Peak but is available if needed.Proper hydration and nutrition support acclimatization.Guides monitor climbers for altitude sickness symptoms and can arrange emergency evacuations if necessary.Trekking poles and paced walking help conserve energy.Rest days at key elevations (Namche Bazaar, Dingboche) allow the body to adjust.Understanding and respecting oxygen levels is vital to ensuring a safe and successful climb.What to Expect on the 16–17 Day Pokalde Peak Climbing AdventureThe 16 to 17-day Pokalde Peak Climbing adventure with Asiana Treks and Tours is an exhilarating journey that combines cultural exploration, scenic trekking, and a thrilling summit climb in the Everest region. This itinerary allows ample time for acclimatization, which is crucial for a safe and enjoyable experience at high altitudes.The adventure begins with a scenic flight from Kathmandu to Lukla, followed by gradual trekking through Sherpa villages like Phakding and Namche Bazaar. The days are a mix of trekking through lush rhododendron forests, crossing suspension bridges over icy rivers, and visiting ancient monasteries such as Tengboche. Acclimatization days are built into the itinerary at key locations like Namche and Dingboche to allow your body to adapt to the thinning air, reducing the risk of altitude sickness.The climbing portion itself is both physically demanding and rewarding, involving the use of technical gear like crampons and ice axes as you ascend Pokalde Peak (5,806m). The summit rewards climbers with breathtaking panoramic views of iconic Himalayan giants, including Mt. Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, and Ama Dablam. After the summit, the descent retraces the trekking route back to Lukla, followed by a flight to Kathmandu for rest and celebration.Key highlights include:Scenic mountain flights and trek through Sherpa villagesAcclimatization days with cultural immersionSteep, technical ascent of Pokalde PeakPanoramic summit views of Everest and surrounding peaksSupport from expert guides and Sherpa portersOpportunities to witness local traditions and festivalsThis 16–17 day adventure perfectly balances challenge and cultural experience for climbers eager to explore the Everest region beyond the usual trekking routes.Oxygen Levels on the Pokalde Peak ClimbingOxygen availability plays a vital role in high-altitude trekking and climbing, especially on peaks like Pokalde Peak, which reaches an elevation of 5,806 meters (19,051 feet). At such heights, the air pressure and oxygen concentration decrease significantly compared to sea level, affecting the body’s ability to function optimally.At 5,800 meters, oxygen levels are roughly half of what they are at sea level. This reduction makes breathing more laborious and increases the risk of altitude sickness, which can manifest as headaches, nausea, dizziness, and fatigue. To mitigate these risks, Asiana Treks and Tours emphasizes a carefully planned itinerary with adequate acclimatization stops. For example, rest days in Namche Bazaar (3,440m) and Dingboche (4,260m) allow trekkers’ bodies to adapt gradually to the thinning air.Key points about oxygen levels during Pokalde Peak Climbing:Oxygen saturation decreases significantly above 4,000 meters.Gradual ascent with acclimatization days is essential for safety.Supplemental oxygen is generally not required for Pokalde Peak but may be available for emergencies.Hydration, nutrition, and rest are critical for coping with low oxygen.Guides monitor trekkers closely for signs of Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS).Use of trekking poles and pacing helps conserve energy at altitude.Understanding and respecting oxygen levels can make the difference between a successful climb and a dangerous situation.Major Villages and Scenic Viewpoints on the Pokalde Peak Climbing RouteThe Pokalde Peak climbing route is rich with vibrant Sherpa culture, stunning landscapes, and panoramic mountain views, making it an unforgettable journey beyond just the summit climb. Trekkers pass through several key villages and viewpoints that highlight both the natural beauty and cultural heritage of the Everest region.Namche Bazaar, known as the Sherpa capital, is a bustling market town where trekkers acclimatize and experience local life. It offers spectacular views of Thamserku and Kongde peaks and a chance to explore traditional shops, cafes, and museums. Namche serves as an important rest stop with ample facilities.Tengboche Village is home to the famous Tengboche Monastery, a spiritual hub for Sherpas with stunning views of Everest, Ama Dablam, and Lhotse. The monastery’s peaceful atmosphere and occasional Buddhist ceremonies provide cultural insight and a serene break for climbers.Key scenic viewpoints and villages include:Phakding: Starting point for the trek, with beautiful rhododendron forests and suspension bridges.Dingboche: High-altitude village surrounded by glaciers and mountain peaks, perfect for acclimatization.Kala Patthar (nearby): Offers arguably the best panoramic view of Everest and the surrounding massif.Pokalde Peak Summit: The ultimate viewpoint offering breathtaking vistas of Everest (8,848m), Lhotse (8,516m), Nuptse, Ama Dablam, and many other peaks.Each village and viewpoint enriches the trekking experience, combining cultural encounters with spectacular Himalayan scenery.Flora and Fauna of the Pokalde Peak ClimbingThe Pokalde Peak climbing route traverses a remarkable variety of ecosystems, offering trekkers the chance to witness diverse flora and fauna unique to the Everest region. Starting from the lower valleys with dense forests, the trail ascends through subalpine and alpine zones rich in biodiversity.In the lower elevations near Lukla and Namche Bazaar, rhododendron forests dominate the landscape, especially vibrant during spring when the flowers bloom in stunning reds and pinks. These forests provide habitat for colorful birds like the Himalayan Monal (Danphe), Nepal’s national bird, known for its brilliant plumage. You may also spot musk deer, barking deer, and occasional glimpses of elusive snow leopards or red pandas in the dense undergrowth.As the trek ascends past Dingboche and higher, the environment becomes more alpine and sparse. Here, hardy shrubs and grasses adapted to cold temperatures thrive. Mountain goats, blue sheep (bharal), and Himalayan tahrs are common sightings, often grazing near rocky outcrops. Bird species such as snowcocks and vultures soar overhead, adding to the rich wildlife experience.Key flora and fauna highlights include:Rhododendron forests and alpine shrubsHimalayan Monal (Danphe), snowcock, and other bird speciesMusk deer, barking deer, and Himalayan tahrOccasional sightings of elusive wildlife such as snow leopard and red pandaMedicinal herbs and rare orchids in lower forested regionsThis natural diversity, combined with breathtaking mountain scenery, makes the Pokalde Peak climbing trail an ecological wonder as well as a trekking adventure.

Lower elevations boast lush rhododendron forests and diverse birdlife. As altitude increases, vegetation thins, giving way to alpine meadows with wildflowers. Higher still, the landscape becomes barren, with limited plant and animal life. Though rare, Himalayan birds like the Impeyan pheasant or blood pheasant might be spotted at lower altitudes.Festivals and Culture of Himchuli Peak Climbing:The area of the Himchuli Peak climbing is filled with the Gurung and Magar traditions. Even though the concentration is on a high-altitude trek, passing through such places as Ghorepani, Tadapani, and Chhomrong, brings out some of the traditions of the people of the region. Larger festivals such as Dashain and Tihar might not be as literally celebrated near the summit of Mount Kailash, but it is touched by the kind essence of the mountain people.

We also recommend carrying a small backpack for your valuables and important documents. You can leave extra Luggage at our office for free and at a hotel in Pokhara, Namche, etc.Accommodation Himchuli Peak Climbing:On a Himchuli Peak climb, the places you spend the night differ as explained below: En route to the base camp, the lodges where you will be putting up are teahouses that provide simple yet good accommodation with shared wash facilities. These are teahouses where people find a place to take a rest after the day’s tiredness of trekking. Nevertheless, whenever you start the climb to Tent Peak, camping forms part of the climbers’ activities regularly. Proper equipment in the form of tents, sleeping bags, and mats should be chosen of high quality due to the poor conditions of the mountains. That is why, despite some difficulties that can be encountered when camping, it is very valuable since it lets experience nature to the fullest and enjoy the night sky.Meals during the Himchuli peak climbing Trip:Food during the Himchuli Peak hike is part of the energy source during the activity. While traveling from one village to another, even trekking to the mountains, Teahouses serve typical Nepalese food like Dal Bhat, Noodles, and Eggs. A printed menu of orders, which is available as one rises in rank, is also tendered; such orders include fried rice, pasta, and basic curry meals, among others. Back in the base camp and especially in the higher camps, dehydrated meals turn into the only source of food. Technically speaking, such meals can be considered ultra-low-impact meals carrying only the minimal amount of nutrition required. Without fail, tea and coffee are crucial for supplying heat, and that is a bonus if consumed in high-altitude areas.Drinking water during Himchuli Peak Climbing:Water is very important when it comes to Himchuli Peak climbing, therefore keeping the body hydrated is important. As they move from one village to another, they are afforded boiled water to drink from teahouses. However, if you go higher, the availability of clean water is very limited or can barely be accessed. One should always have with them water purification tablets or a small portable water filter to purify water from natural sources. Consumption of sufficient amounts of water enables the prevention of altitude sickness and good health during the physically demanding climb. The availability of rehydration salts is also recommended to help in the replenishing of the electrolytes that may have been washed out through the sweat.Extra Personal Expenses for Himchuli Peak Climbing:Your Trip covers most expenses during the peak climbing; you'll need to spend money on extra accommodations and meals in Kathmandu, souvenirs, and beverages. The package does not include expenses incurred for personal items and services such as trekking and climbing equipment, laundry, tips, landlines, mobile phones, walkie-talkies, satellite phones, and internet services.

We estimate miscellaneous expenses to be around USD 15-25 per trekking day. However, personal expenses will vary depending on your income, habits, and lifestyle.Toilet Facilities in Himchuli Peak Climbing:Most teahouses have Western-style flush toilets during mountain treks, especially at lower elevations. But as you go higher, find simple squat toilets along the trails and teahouses at higher altitudes. These toilets usually have water or toilet paper, but it's a good idea to bring your toilet paper just in case. You can also use restrooms at nearby teahouses or find a private spot along the trekking routes.Internet Connectivity:Any form of connectivity to the Internet is usually very scarce while on a Tent Peak climb. However, only a few teahouses which are along the trekking route provide Wi-Fi facilities and that too normally it is slow Wi-Fi. The beauty of this is that as you go higher, the internet connection diminishes severely. As much as internet connections can be compromised throughout a climb, especially in base camps, one must be ready not to have access to it at all. Another factor that needs to be managed and reconstructed is attending to the ‘presence’ of the trek and the climb, by avoiding the distractions of technology and digital connectivity.Electricity voltage and plugs:However, 95 % of Nepali people have access to electricity as of May 29, 2023. almost popular trekking and climbing routes, teahouses, and lodges have electricity. However, some isolated and solo trekking tea houses in the jungle don't have electricity; most tea houses let travelers charge for their devices for a small fee. The average electrical voltage in Nepal is 230 volts, with plug types like Type C, Type D, and Type M. Travellers should bring a suitable adapter and, if needed, a voltage converter for their electronic devices.Communication:The guest houses in the trekking and climbing regions have internet access. You could buy a SIM card at Tribhuvan International Airport Kathmandu and Namche. However, the signal may need to be more assertive at high altitudes. Our office keeps in touch with all trekking teams via the trek guide at least once daily to ensure everything goes as planned.

You will need to cover these costs yourself as you use them.Trip Extension:Suppose you have extra days in Nepal after the Trek and Peak climbing.

Pisang Peak Climbing
Pisang Peak Climbing 20 days

Pisang Peak rises above Pisang village and yak pastures in a uniform slope of ice and snow to the final summit pyramid. This peak is considered the easy climbing peak in Nepal. 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. There will be snow at the high camp from the end of November to the end of March. The well-defined ridge leads to the final snow slope, which is quite steep but not difficult to reach the summit. Descent is made on the same route.This trek after all is difficult to match for its rugged mountain scenery, trekking challenges and the exposure it provides to the variety of ethnic Nepalese cultures. Starting in the lowland paddy fields the trek steadily gains altitude passing through oak and pine forests and eventually emerging into the high desert country at Manang (3597 m.). The descent is equally amazing and varied.Pisang Peak Itinerary:A Pisang Peak climbing normally takes 12-15 days; one needs to drive from Kathmandu to Bulbule, and then trek to Chamje, Dharapani, and Chame. Trekking to Pisang is done after acclimatization in Upper Pisang to reach Pisang Peak Base Camp and High Camp. In the morning, an attempt to get to the summit is made and then descent back to Upper Pisang and from there to Manang Valley. The last day of the known tour takes the guests through Yak Kharka and Thorung Phedi where the splendid mountains and the rewarding hiking impress.Pisang Peak Climbing Distance:The distance amount that can be accrued during the Pisang Peak climbing can also differ depending on certain tasks and the chosen direction. Even though the actual climbing of the Pisang peak is said to be from the base camp to the summit and shorter than other peaks; the total trek starting from Kathmandu to the base camp and back is quite long. These numbers should be expected to vary as there are varying topographies, weather conditions, and individuals’ realistic speeds that they are willing to maintain throughout the hike. Chiefly, the objective is the vertical distance as opposed to the horizontal course as it is a vertical journey through several stages of acclimatization before arriving at the peak.Pisang peak climbing route:The climbing route of the Pisang peak is usually done through any number of the great trails such as the Annapurna circuit. This entails passing through beautiful villages, green full-grown forests, and mountainous regions. About the difficulty level, the climbing gets steeper when approaching the Pisang area, and the last push to Uhapperko requires technical climbing. The trail mostly involves rest days to get accustomed to the high altitude and the descent is also on the same trail back to the main Annapurna Circuit.Pisang peak climbing cost:The price for climbing Pisang Peak differs from package to package, group size, and the time of the year. In general, the price of the guided expedition is assessed to range between $2,500 and $3,500 per person. These may consist of permits, transport, food and lodges, tools, guides, and porters. Services offered such as extra carries, rentals for gears, and other personal expenses may affect the charges to be given.

Although it is not as technical as other higher and steeper mountains, it still calls for adequate fitness and altitude exposure/acclimatization.

It is very important to have preparation like training, acclimatization, and an experienced guide before even attempting the climb.Pisang Peak Height:Pisang Peak is located at an altitude of 6,091 meters (19,984 feet) thus a challenging but doable for professional trekkers. The height it undertakes to span provides climbers with astounding vistas of the other hills in the region, particularly the Annapurna massif. In as much as many hikers regard is as an easy climb mountain, its altitude requires one to factor the need to find the right acclimatization and training before being able to successfully hike up the mountain into consideration.About Pisang Peak High Camp:The Pisang Peak High Camp is established around 5400 meters above sea level; indeed, it is a comparatively difficult camp; however, if accomplished, you will be pleased as it will be the last stop before the finale. The high camp is attained after often a tough trek from the Base camp and serves as a staging post of sorts and a critical one at that as people start their final assault on the summit from here. This puts the place into the risk factor due to the exposure to extreme weathers appropriate to the location with spectacular views of the surrounding Himalayan mountains.Pisang peaks safety:All troupes that Asiana Treks and Tours takes for Pisang Peak adventures prioritize safety foremost. Pisang Peak is in general recognized to be much easier than other peaks of the Himalayas range still there are some more or less serious difficulties connected with climbing in the high mountains.

Tent Peak ( Tharpu Chuli) Climbing, also recognized as Tharpu Chuli (5663m/18,563ft) above sea level, can be summited within a 15-day. This peak stands in the Annapurna Himalaya range. Tharpu Chuli stands on one of the famous trekking to ABC and someday onward to climbing ascent. However, ice and rock climbing skills alongside appropriate equipment are suggested. This peak is an excellent stepping stone for trekkers transitioning from high-pass trekking to amateur mountaineering. The chosen route for this climb is the standard Northwest Ridge, categorized as Peu Difficile (PD) in grading. Including vertical and ridge climbing segments imparts an intriguing and challenging dimension, particularly for those venturing into trekking peaks for the first time. The relative ease of Tharpu Chuli's height and snow conditions sets it apart from more formidable trekking mountains.In 1956, Mr. Jimmy Roberts achieved the Tent Peak summit via the Southeast Ridge. Alternatively, the Southwest Ridge, specifically the West Face Ridge, has emerged as a popular climbing route. The ideal seasons for ascending Tent Peak are spring (April, May) and autumn (September, October, November). The climb follows a relatively straightforward path, with an approximate Alpine grade of PD+. The journey involves primarily snow slopes at a 35-42-degree gradient, interspersed with some exposed ridge climbing. Fixed lines are established to cover any precarious sections.The summit of Tent Peak treats climbers to breathtaking panoramic vistas of the majestic snow-capped mountains within the Annapurna region. The captivating landscapes encountered during the trek are an additional incentive to explore this remarkable peak. Trekking along the Modi River's picturesque course allows for an immersive experience of both natural splendor and cultural richness along one of the most renowned routes in the Annapurna region. The journey unfolds through Himalayan flora, lush forests, vibrant blossoms, culturally vibrant local communities, and the snow-draped allure of the trekking peak.Embarking from Pokhara, commencing the trek from Dhampus village to Annapurna Base Camp.

Sufficient time is allocated for acclimatization before going to Tharpu Chuli Base Camp. A higher camp is situated at 5000m. The route traverses the glacier from the high camp and ascends a 41° snow slope to reach the North West Ridge. This ridge, initially broad, narrows significantly for the final 61 meters leading to the summit.Tent  Peak Itinerary:A Tent Peak climb usually takes 12 to 19 days in total. One begins the journey with a scenic drive or even a flight to Pokhara, then the trek through the Annapurna circuit via Poon Hill, Tadapani, Chhomrong, and the Annapurna base camp. While approaching the base of the Tent Peak, one has to camp. The journey ends after conquering the summit and descending. Still, another trek is required from the base camp to reach Pokhara after enjoying trekking mountaineering, and some splendid views of the Himalayas.Tent  Peak Climbing Distance:Distance-wise, the total distance covered while climbing a Tent Peak is about 18 KM. This includes hiking to and from the Annapurna Base Camp, climbing to the high camp of Tent Peak, and the summit attempt.

We also recommend carrying a small backpack for your valuables and important documents. You can leave extra Luggage at our office for free and at a hotel in Pokhara, Namche, etc.Accommodation Tent Peak Climbing:On a Tent Peak climb, the places you spend the night differ as explained below: En route to the base camp, the lodges where you will be putting up are teahouses that provide simple yet good accommodation with shared wash facilities. These are teahouses where people find a place to take a rest after the day’s tiredness of trekking. Nevertheless, whenever you start the climb to Tent Peak, camping forms part of the climbers’ activities regularly. Proper equipment in the form of tents, sleeping bags, and mats should be chosen of high quality due to the poor conditions of the mountains. That is why, despite some difficulties that can be encountered when camping, it is very valuable since it lets experience nature to the fullest and enjoy the night sky.Meals during the Trip:Food during the Tent Peak hike is part of the energy source during the activity. While traveling from one village to another, even trekking to the mountains, Teahouses serve typical Nepalese food like Dal Bhat, Noodles, and Eggs. A printed menu of orders, which is available as one rises in rank, is also tendered; such orders include fried rice, pasta, and basic curry meals, among others. Back in the base camp and especially in the higher camps, dehydrated meals turn into the only source of food. Technically speaking, such meals can be considered ultra-low-impact meals carrying only the minimal amount of nutrition required. Without fail, tea and coffee are crucial for supplying heat, and that is a bonus if consumed in high-altitude areas.Drinking water during Tent Peak Climbing:Water is very important when it comes to Tent Peak climbing, therefore keeping the body hydrated is important. As they move from one village to another, they are afforded boiled water to drink from teahouses. However, if you go higher, the availability of clean water is very limited or can barely be accessed. One should always have with them water purification tablets or a small portable water filter to purify water from natural sources. Consumption of sufficient amounts of water enables the prevention of altitude sickness and good health during the physically demanding climb. The availability of rehydration salts is also recommended to help in the replenishing of the electrolytes that may have been washed out through the sweat.Extra Personal Expenses for Tent Peak Climbing:Your Trip covers most expenses during the peak climbing; you'll need to spend money on extra accommodations and meals in Kathmandu, souvenirs, and beverages. The package does not include expenses incurred for personal items and services such as trekking and climbing equipment, laundry, tips, landlines, mobile phones, walkie-talkies, satellite phones, and internet services. You will need to cover these costs yourself as you use them. While most expenses during the Trek are covered, you must budget additional accommodations and meals in Kathmandu, souvenirs, and beverages. We estimate miscellaneous expenses to be around USD 15-25 per trekking day. However, personal expenses will vary depending on your income, habits, and lifestyle.Toilet Facilities inTent Peak Climbing:Most teahouses have Western-style flush toilets during mountain treks, especially at lower elevations. But as you go higher, find simple squat toilets along the trails and teahouses at higher altitudes. These toilets usually have water or toilet paper, but it's a good idea to bring your toilet paper just in case. You can also use restrooms at nearby teahouses or find a private spot along the trekking routes.Internet Connectivity:Any form of connectivity to the Internet is usually very scarce while on a Tent Peak climb. However, only a few teahouses which are along the trekking route provide Wi-Fi facilities and that too normally it is slow Wi-Fi. The beauty of this is that as you go higher, the internet connection diminishes severely. As much as internet connections can be compromised throughout a climb, especially in base camps, one must be ready not to have access to it at all. Another factor that needs to be managed and re/constructed is attending to the ‘presence’ of the trek and the climb, by avoiding the distractions of technology and digital connectivity.Electricity voltage and plugs:However, 95 % of Nepali people have access to electricity as of May 29, 2023. almost popular trekking routes, teahouses, and lodges have electricity. However, some isolated and solo trekking tea houses in the jungle don't have electricity; most tea houses let travelers charge for their devices for a small fee. The average electrical voltage in Nepal is 230 volts, with plug types like Type C, Type D, and Type M. Travellers should bring a suitable adapter and, if needed, a voltage converter for their electronic devices.Communication:The guest houses in the trekking regions have internet access. You could buy a SIM card at Tribhuvan International Airport Kathmandu and Namche. However, the signal may need to be more assertive at high altitudes. Our office keeps in touch with all trekking teams via the trek guide at least once daily to ensure everything goes as planned. However, services include landlines, mobile phones, walkie-talkies, satellite phones, and internet services. You will need to cover these costs yourself as you use them.Trip Extension:Suppose you have extra days in Nepal after the Trek.

This includes the trip to the base camp, the various excursions meant for acclimatization, and the last part the summiting of the mountain. However, this is a general estimation as there might be alterations in the distance depending on the track taken, the weather, and the speed of the climber. Getting through the Upper Mustang tack is interesting in terms of the view it provides, but the journey is somewhat challenging considering the area’s geographical nature and low human settlement.Saribung peak climbing route:The climbing route for Saribung Peak is usually from Jomsom, Nepal, and passes through the geographically isolated Upper Mustang. Spectacular scenery includes hiking, experiencing passes at certain altitudes, and getting accustomed to the terrain. The last climb to the Saribung Peak is a little challenging and involves glaciers, crevasses, and steep slopes, this makes it necessary to involve an experienced mountaineer. The descent is also similar and proffers possible sightseeing of the people and the outstanding features of the Mustang region and then to Kathmandu.Saribung peak climbing cost:The price of the Saribung Peak trekking depends on the number of persons in a group, the services to be offered, and the time of year. These range from $4,000-$6,000 per head and include everything from permits to transport food and water, and the gear as well as the guide and porterage services. Extra features such as exotic accommodation or an individual tour plan would certainly boost expenses. Look for more operators, hence comparing and selecting the best that suits your pocket and desires.Saribung Peak Climbing Difficulty:Climbing Saribung Peak is regarded to be expeditionary due to its geographical inaccessibility, high latitude, and relative rockiness. It is accentuated by steep climbing, the presence of glaciers, crevasses as well as fluctuating climatic conditions. Climbing experience, including prior mountaineering, and good physical health must be a trademark for this feat. Accumulation of acclimatization is very important to reduce associated altitude risks and technical skills are essential and useful by the time one reaches the steep climbing parts of the walls.Saribung Peak Height:Saribung Peak rises to a height, somewhere around 6,328 meters or 20,751 feet, and is, therefore, quite a challenging climb but it is certainly worth every effort for mountaineering enthusiasts. The peak provides marvelous vistas of the adjacent snow-topped Himalayan ranges which makes the climb a spectacular adventure.About Saribung Peak High Camp:The high camp, for Saribung Peak is usually set up near the height of 5800 meters. Because of the high altitude, the high camp can itself be a small number of tents where climbers use the last preparation before the attack. Temperatures at this upland are severe as are the winds, and the thinnest of airs prove to be the order of the day. The only thing a climber can do on this part of the mountain is to rest, eat, drink, and rehydrate himself or herself properly before the attempt of the summit.Saribung Peaks safety:Climbing to the Saribung Peak per se entails certain dangerous factors correlated with the altitudinal status, fluctuating climatic conditions, and topographic difficulties. The primary hazards are avalanches, crevasse falls, altitude sickness, and exposure. To avoid these risks, the climbers should be professional and experienced in the activity, and in good health besides having undergone the necessary acclimatization process. Measures can be taken to maximize the luck of success and safety High-country experience, having the right gear, and safety-consciousness.Major villages of  Saribung Peak Climbing:The climb has many enchanting villages, namely Jomsom, Kagbeni, Chele, Geling, Tsarang, Lo Manthang, Dhi Gaon, Luri Gomba, Ghuma Tanti, and Namta Khola on the way to the Saribung Peak climbing. These settlements provide a preview of the type of society of the Upper Mustang area and are completely different from the rocky landscape.Best Viewpoints  on the Way  to Saribung Peak Climbing:Muktinath (3,800 meters):High altitude sightseeing including the panorama of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri mountains. The Muktinath shrine is an important place of worship and this is evidenced by the testing topographical features that include; barren land and mountains with white snow caps at the horizon.Kagbeni (2,800 meters):Tours of the Nilgiri and Dhaulagiri ranges. The medieval village of Kagbeni possesses wonderful sights and sounds, the Kali Gandaki River, and the view of the altitude gateway to the forbidden kingdom of Upper Mustang.Chhuksang (2,980 meters):Panoramic land views and some River Kali Gandaki gorge and cliffs. The destination of Chhuksang is well famous for its red cliffs which provide more or less bizarre-looking rock formations.Chele La Pass (3,630 meters):Amazing vistas of Upper Mustang and the neighboring mountains.

The base camp has the most spectacular view of the peak and the vast glaciers with fields.Saribung Pass (6,042 meters):Panoramic views of Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges of mountains with peaks as far as Tibet. According to one of the locals it offers one of the best outlooks, on the peaks and the Tibetan plateau.Saribung Peak Summit (6,328 meters):There are wonderful prospects of the massifs of Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, and Manaslu and the Tibetan plateau. The top of the summit provides an exciting view that is around 360 degrees and for this reason, hikers deserve to be rewarded for the hard task they accomplished.View and Experience on Top of Saribung Peak:The experience of being on the rooftop of the world that is Saribung Peak is something that cannot be described in words. We get a breathtaking view of the gigantic mountain ranges known as Annapurna and Dhaulagiri and several other gigantic mountainous zones. This strikes me immediately and expands infinitely – the scale of the Tibetan Plateau: a white nothingness in the distance. This loneliness is very rewarding because climbers feel that they are in the middle of a snowy and even icy meadow with gorgeous wind blowing around them. It is the thrill that makes a man and the victory of the human spirit over the dominating rock massifs.Flora and Fauna In Saribung Peak Climbing:Vegetation cover as well as the wildlife is limited due to the altitude of location of the Saribung Peak. Considering that the Upper Mustang resides in the Himalayan range of Nepal, it is even more desolate, it is a desert and the altitude is very high, and all these factors make it very hard for most living organisms to survive. Some parts, particularly on lowlands, are covered with tough shrubs and grasses, while most of the upper parts are very sparsely vegetated or even practically astir. Similar to plant life, animal life is restricted and the traveler may come across blue sheep, Himalayan marmots and in the more desolate stretches, may sight the snow leopard.Festivals and Culture of Saribung Peak Climbing:The Saribung Peak climbing region influences Tibetan Buddhism. As the trekkise is set in the high mountains and has many days devoted to ascension, it is rather difficult to get a lot of experience with the color of the local festivals During the trek though, it is possible to get a glimpse of life in the Upper Mustang region. Picturesque features include ancient monasteries, fluttering prayer flags, mani walls and so on which make the physical climbing task a real spiritual. The culture of the region with a mixing of both Tibetan and Nepalese flavors enhances the cultural values and heritage of the country.Advantage book with Asiana Treks and Tours with Himchuli Peak climbing: * Private transport for airport transfers to/from your hotel.* Trip briefing on Facebook and online if you love to connect.* Last minute booking at your hotel at a suitable time after your arrival.* Easy booking and reservation system.* Multi-channel communication via Email, WhatsApp, Facebook, Viber, Skyp  24/7 phone communication at +977-9851076270* Free excess luggage storage during the Trek* Oximeters are provided to examine blood oxygen saturation at high altitudes to detect altitude sickness early* Medical kits along the Trek and hot airbags are available in winter* Arrange sleeping bags, duffel bags, down jackets, and walking pools if you don't have your own.Saribung Peak Climbing Start: The Saribung Peak climbing expedition starts in Kathmandu, Nepal.

In the lower areas, there are ample numbers of teahouses where trekkers can find comparatively basic facilities.

When climbing to the BC or higher camps, pit toilet or outdoor toilets is most often cited.Internet Connectivity:Any form of connectivity to the Internet is usually very scarce while on a Tent Peak climb.

These are teahouses where people find a place to take a rest after the day’s tiredness of trekking. Nevertheless, whenever you start the climb to Yala Peak, camping forms part of the climbers’ activities regularly. Proper equipment in the form of tents, sleeping bags, and mats should be chosen of high quality due to the poor conditions of the mountains. That is why, despite some difficulties that can be encountered when camping, it is very valuable since it lets experience nature to the fullest and enjoy the night sky.Meals during the Yala peak climbing Trip:Food during the Yala Peak climbing is part of the energy source during the activity. While traveling from one village to another, even trekking to the mountains, Teahouses serve typical Nepalese food like Dal Bhat, Noodles, and Eggs. A printed menu of orders, which is available as one rises in rank, is also tendered; such orders include fried rice, pasta, and basic curry meals, among others. Back in the base camp and especially in the higher camps, dehydrated meals turn into the only source of food. Technically speaking, such meals can be considered ultra-low-impact meals carrying only the minimal amount of nutrition required. Without fail, tea and coffee are crucial for supplying heat, and that is a bonus if consumed in high-altitude areas.Drinking water during Yala Peak Climbing:Water is very important when Peak climbing, therefore keeping the body hydrated is important. As they move from one village to another, they are afforded boiled water to drink from teahouses. However, if you go higher, the availability of clean water is very limited or can barely be accessed. One should always have with them water purification tablets or a small portable water filter to purify water from natural sources. Consumption of sufficient amounts of water enables the prevention of altitude sickness and good health during the physically demanding climb. The availability of rehydration salts is also recommended to help in the replenishing of the electrolytes that may have been washed out through the sweat.Extra Personal Expenses for Yala Peak Climbing:Your Trip covers most expenses during the Yala peak climbing; you'll need to spend money on extra accommodations and meals in Kathmandu, souvenirs, and beverages. The package does not include expenses incurred for personal items and services such as trekking and climbing equipment, laundry, tips, landlines, mobile phones, walkie-talkies, satellite phones, and internet services. You will need to cover these costs yourself as you use them. While most expenses during the Trek are covered, you must budget additional accommodations and meals in Kathmandu, souvenirs, and beverages. We estimate miscellaneous expenses to be around USD 15-25 per trekking day. However, personal expenses will vary depending on your income, habits, and lifestyle.Toilet Facilities in Yala Peak Climbing:Most teahouses have Western-style flush toilets during mountain treks, especially at lower elevations. But as you go higher, find simple squat toilets along the trails and teahouses at higher altitudes. These toilets usually have water or toilet paper, but it's a good idea to bring your toilet paper just in case. You can also use restrooms at nearby teahouses or find a private spot along the trekking routes.Internet Connectivity:Any form of connectivity to the Internet is usually very scarce while on a Tent Peak climb. However, only a few teahouses which are along the trekking route provide Wi-Fi facilities and that too normally it is slow Wi-Fi. The beauty of this is that as you go higher, the internet connection diminishes severely. As much as internet connections can be compromised throughout a climb, especially in base camps, one must be ready not to have access to it at all. Another factor that needs to be managed and reconstructed is attending to the presence of the trek and the climb, by avoiding the distractions of technology and digital connectivity.Electricity voltage and plugs:However, 95 % of Nepali people have access to electricity as of May 29, 2023. almost popular trekking and climbing routes, teahouses, and lodges have electricity.

Paldor Peak Climbing
peak climbing
Paldor Peak Climbing 19 days

Paldor Peak with a Height of 5860m is one of the famous trekking peaks in the Ganesh Himal Range this Himalayan trekking is dominated by the providence god Ganesha. The trail is not very steep and it is quite easy to climb, and one does not need to have any experience of mountaineering at all. It begins in Kathmandu and takes tourists through the villages of Tangjet of the Tamang cultural richness and Gatlang and across suspension bridges over the melting glacier from the Tibetan border. The trail now turns northwards along the ridge into more of the dense forests of Mailing Khola which is a tributary of the Trishuli River.The main climbing route after crossing the glacier is either to start up the steep icy exactly at the top of the ridge which requires ropes or continue around the ridge on the crevassed side, and then up an easy 45-degree ridge. Climbers establish a base camp at Paldor Base Camp and spend one day at 4280 m for acclimatization before moving to the high camp at a high altitude suggested by a climbing specialist before the final assault on the summit.The Paldor Peak has clear views of several other mountains of the Himalayas including the Ganesh Himal, Langtang Lirung, Manaslu, Pabil, La, Lobsang Karpo, Ganesh I and Ganesh V, and the range of mountains of Tibet including the Shishapangma. The one from Kathmandu to Sya-Bru-Bensi is the nearest trekking route from the North West.Paldor Peak Itinerary:Asiana Trek and Tour has a perfect itinerary for Paldor Peak. A Paldor Peak expedition usually takes about 10-12 days in all.Starting from Kathmandu, there is a drive to Syabrubesi, and then the trek through villages and terrains to reach the base camp. Carrying a spare day before heading for the high camp is important for acclimatization. The actual climbing of the mountain takes place in the early morning and is followed by a return to the base camp for rest. The final part of the trek includes the return to Syabrubesi, which includes visits from local people and hot springs.Paldor  Peak Climbing Distance:Climbing an expedition to Paldor Peak also depends on the route and approach that has been chosen for the trekking, but the trekking area is approximately 19 km in distance. The actual stalk to the top may not be long compared to that of other mountains, but other aspects including the approaches, movements and descents, acclimatization walks and the back-off can take several days. The actual climbing distance can therefore be more described by vertical meters than by horizontal kilometers since climbers cover steep and tough terrains.Paldor peak climbing route:The most common trail to approach Paldord Peak is to cross over the glaciers and up and over a series of steep ridges. As with most treks, there are several ways the most conventional is through Syabrubesi. The ascent consists of steep ground with crevasses and some steep ground, particularly during the first part of the climb. Climbers often encounter two main options after reaching a particular point: climbing a ridge face directly or employing a crack to perform a tilting ridge. It presents splendid vistas of ultramodern peaks in the Great Himalayan Range across the valley.Paldor peak climbing cost:The charges for the Paldor Peak trek depend on the time of the year, the number of people participating, or the services that are to be included. In most cases, one has to be prepared to part with at least $1400 to $2700 for a single individual. This includes permits, guides, porter, equipment, accommodation, and meals. However, personal expenses such as climbing equipment, travel insurance, and pocket money, cannot be included in the budget. Thus, the tourists should embark on the expedition through a recommended travel agency that would guarantee safety as well as coordination of the exercise.Paldor Peak Climbing Difficulty:Paldor Peak Fall is among the moderate-rated mountain peaks climbing in Nepal. It can be said that it offers difficulties not present in summiting higher mountains but is not as technically difficult as the latter. A set of glaciers, steep slopes, and sometimes rather open rises have to be passed through while moving along the route. A few points about the climbing experience: Necessary is previous mountain climbing and a good physical shape. This way, it will be possible to acclimatize to that altitude and the next days weather conditions may be quite different. Though not a technical summit, Paldor deserves to be a must for those who are looking for some hardcore expedition out in the Himalayas.Paldor Peak Height:Paldor Peak has a height of 5,903 meters (19,367 feet) vertically perceived from sea level. This mountain is found in the Ganesh Himal area and as a result, it provides climbers with stunning vistas of other Himalayan giants. Its height is instrumental to the climbing process and the climbing experience and has particular requirements in terms of acclimatization and the actual use of climbing tools and skills.About Paldor Peak High Camp:Paldor Peak High Camp is ideal for making a bid for the summit of the mountain. Located at a higher level than the base camp, this is the place where climbers prepare themselves for the worst at the expense of the low oxygen concentration in the environment.

It is spread out on a hilltop and is known for its beauty and as the first checkpoint for the Langtang treks. After this, it passes through scenic regions throughout Tamang settlements with rice terracing along with forests. As the climbers progress up the trail, the country becomes rocky and alpine, allowing climbers to have a feeling of the real deal ahead of them.Currency Exchange:The Nepalese rupee is Nepali currency, and 1 USD is approximately 130 NPR.

In the lowland regions, small and lovely teahouses are availed for resting and feeding on local meals. As altitude increases these choices are limited and hence the common practice of camping is practiced. High camp and the base camp are usually camps where the climbers have installed a temporary shelter in the form of tents which can be found in the alpine zone. Camping equipment should be chosen properly – a durable tent, a good sleeping bag, and an insulated sleeping pad are necessary. However, it has to be admitted that conditions may be rather strict and the experience of the night spent in tents among Himalayan mountains is indelible.Meals during the Paldor peak climbing Trip:Food during the expedition at Paldor Peak is a combination of what local people in the region eat and the high-altitude diets. As reached in several lower villages, teahouses serve different Nepali foods including Dal Bhat, Momos, and Thukpa. And as you go up the menu you find that it’s all the straightforward foods that give you energy. At the base camp and high camp, you are served by a team of cooks as part of the support team, and mainly rice, lentils, potatoes, and meat are available. One must hydrate themselves and ensure they are putting as many calories in their body to sustain the vigorous act of climbing.Drinking water during Paldor Peak Climbing:Water is very important when it comes to Peak climbing, therefore keeping the body hydrated is important. As they move from one village to another, they are afforded boiled water to drink from teahouses. However, if you go higher, the availability of clean water is very limited or can barely be accessed. One should always have with them water purification tablets or a small portable water filter to purify water from natural sources. Consumption of sufficient amounts of water enables the prevention of altitude sickness and good health during the physically demanding climb. The availability of rehydration salts is also recommended to help in the replenishing of the electrolytes that may have been washed out through the sweat.Extra Personal Expenses for Paldor Peak Climbing:Your Trip covers most expenses during the peak climbing; you'll need to spend money on extra accommodations and meals in Kathmandu, souvenirs, and beverages. The package does not include expenses incurred for personal items and services such as trekking and climbing equipment, laundry, tips, landlines, mobile phones, walkie-talkies, satellite phones, and internet services. You will need to cover these costs yourself as you use them. While most expenses during the Trek are covered, you must budget additional accommodations and meals in Kathmandu, souvenirs, and beverages. We estimate miscellaneous expenses to be around USD 15-25 per trekking day. However, personal expenses will vary depending on your income, habits, and lifestyle.Toilet Facilities in Paldor Peak Climbing:Sanitation on the elevation of Saribung Peak is still relatively primitive; They have toilets on the way up the route of climbing the Paldor Peak. As you travel a little higher, many of the villages and teahouses offer the more basic, flush-down toilets as are seen in the Western world. You will find that there are more squat toilets and the higher up you go the fewer flush toilets are available. Sanitary wipes are less likely to be found in public places, such as washrooms, and therefore one should always possess his or her toilet paper. Disposal of wastes is very important especially in areas of high altitude since sanitation and hygiene are very important. When climbing to the BC or higher camps, pit toilet or outdoor toilets is most often cited.Internet Connectivity:Any form of connectivity to the Internet is usually very scarce while on a Tent Peak climb. However, only a few teahouses which are along the trekking route provide Wi-Fi facilities and that too normally it is slow Wi-Fi. The beauty of this is that as you go higher, the internet connection diminishes severely. As much as internet connections can be compromised throughout a climb, especially in base camps, one must be ready not to have access to it at all. Another factor that needs to be managed and reconstructed is attending to the presence of the trek and the climb, by avoiding the distractions of technology and digital connectivity.Electricity voltage and plugs:However, 95 % of Nepali people have access to electricity as of May 29, 2023. almost popular trekking and climbing routes, teahouses, and lodges have electricity. However, some isolated and solo trekking tea houses in the jungle don't have electricity; most tea houses let travelers charge for their devices for a small fee. The average electrical voltage in Nepal is 230 volts, with plug types like Type C, Type D, and Type M. Travellers should bring a suitable adapter and, if needed, a voltage converter for their electronic devices.Communication:The guest houses in the trekking and climbing regions have internet access. You could buy a SIM card at Tribhuvan International Airport Kathmandu and Namche. However, the signal may need to be more assertive at high altitudes. Our office keeps in touch with all trekking teams via the trek guide at least once daily to ensure everything goes as planned. However, services include landlines, mobile phones, walkie-talkies, satellite phones, and internet services. You will need to cover these costs yourself as you use them.Trip Extension:Suppose you have extra days in Nepal after the Trek and Peak climbing.
