Pisang Peak is the most popular among
the trekking peaks in Nepal in Annapurna
region. Trekkers with little experience
in climbing can combine the popular
classic Annapurna circuit trek with
Pisang Peak climbing to have the taste
of climbing in Himalayas in Nepal. The
peak rises above from Pisang village
and yak pastures in a uniform slope
of ice and snow to the final summit
pyramid. 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 slop which is quite
steep but not difficult to reach the
summit. We move down from the same route.
