Overview

This trek and climb is difficult to match for its spectacular mountain scenery, trekking and mountaineering challenges and the expose it provides on 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 high desert country at Manang (3,597m) and culminating in the ascent of Chulu West (6,419m).

The descent is equally amazing and varied. Since the trek to the Base Camp of Chulu gains altitude slowly, you will have enough time to observe the people and their customs
