Introduction to Tharpu Chuli Peak Climbing

Tharpu Chuli Peak Climbing is the perfect combination of trekking and climbing in the Annapurna region. This peak is located in the Annapurna region of Nepal which is also known as Tent Peak.

At a relatively low altitude, it is a beautiful snow-capped peak. The top of the peak offers spectacular views of Annapurna, Annapurna South, Annapurna III, Annapurna V, Macchapucchre, Hiunchuli, Singu Chuli, and Gangapurna Mountains.

Climb the exciting peak and enjoy the beauty of the Annapurna region of Nepal from the top of the peak. Tharpu Chuli Peak Climbing in Nepal is for those adventurous travelers who want to do something more exciting and thrilling than trekking.

Tharpu Chuli Peak Climbing passes through picturesque villages of various ethnic groups, dense rhododendron forests, and alpine vegetation areas. The most enjoyable part of your entire trip is the snow-capped mountains that you will always find in your backdrop.

Inside the Annapurna sanctuary, you will be mesmerized by the breathtaking views of the protected bamboo, alpine vegetation, and dense rhododendron forest, especially in spring. This area is mostly inhabited by Gurungs and Magars. Observing the culture, traditions, and daily life of the locals will be a joy for your campaign.

Peak Climbing is not Technically Difficult

Tent Peak Climbing is not technically difficult so no technical training is required but you need to be physically fit and have good endurance capacity. As the height of the peak is only 5,663 meters, less experienced and first-time climbers can also climb.

Before Tharpu Chuli Peak climbing, your team leader will give you basic pre-climbing training and brief information. Your climbing Sherpa guide is fully trained, experienced, and licensed by the Nepal Mountaineering Association (NMA).

A climbing permit is required to climb the Peak which can be obtained from the NMA office. To issue a climbing permit, all team members must have personal insurance as well as accident insurance.

The best seasons for Tharpu Chuli Peak Climbing are spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November). However, winter is also a good season if you are well-prepared for the cold weather. In winter the mountain views are crystal clear and there are fewer trekkers than in spring and autumn. But it is not wise to do this during the monsoon (July to August).

Frequently asked questions about this trip

How difficult is the trek?

The difficulty depends on where and how long you want to trek. The short trek is easy while the long trek requires some physical fitness.

What is altitude sickness?

Altitude sickness is normally known as acute mountain sickness. This can happen when people rapidly climb up to an altitude of more than 3000 meters. We ensure minimal risk by adding rest to our trekking itineraries. Most people will feel some effects of altitude, some shortness of breath and possibly light headache, this is normal enough. Acute mountain sickness patients are quite different and usually have a serious headache, sickness, and lose awareness. In almost all possible cases there are sufficient warning signs to take action properly. Descending to a lower altitude is usually enough to prevent any further problems.

What type of accommodation is available during the trekking?

There are mainly tea houses and lodges available for trekking and they are usually made using local materials and are very comfortable. These accommodations are often family-run and usually provide single and double rooms. The dining room is on the ground floor and is often on fire. All food will be cooked in order in the family kitchen. Toilet facilities are sometimes separate and sometimes outside. Most lodges provide mattresses and blankets. It's a good idea to always have a sleeping bag, which can be useful, and perhaps an inflatable pillow.

How long do we walk every day on trekking?

Trekking programs are classified into three different categories: soft, moderate and hard. Soft treks are only about 7 days to 10 days in duration. They generally do not go above 4000 meters; you can expect to walk about 4-5 hours each day. Moderate treks are challenging enough and long treks that go to the high hill country. Physically exhausting, this involves trekking along the cliffs of the mountains for about 6-8 hours. Harder treks are longer treks that go farther away from the general abode of trekkers and tourists. These physically challenging treks involve walking for 7- 9 hours each day.

How much weight do I need to carry on the trek?

You carry some of your personal belongings, such as warm clothing, water, snacks, sun block, cameras and more. Generally, these items will be lightweight, from 5 to 10kg (10 to 20 pounds). Our porters are available for other heavy goods and for your information one porter would be sharing by two people. The maximum weight carried by one porter is total 20 kg. this means 10 kg. per person is allowed for the trek. In case if you wish to carry more than this weight then you need to hire additional porters.

What is the best time for trekking in Nepal?

October and November are considered as the best times for trekking in Nepal due to dry season. December and January are also considered good times for trekking but it is extremely cold at high altitudes.
