Chulu East Peak Climbing

Chulu East Peak is one of the trekking peaks, which stands at the elevation of 6,584 meters above sea level, in the Annapurna Massif of the Himalayas. Climbing Chulu East is a wonderful adventure journey. A perfect cultural, natural and adventurous blend, this trip brings a thrilling experience of being in the wilderness of the mountains and going for an adventure climb.

This trip also goes around the Annapurna range of the Himalayas so you have the chance to do Annapurna Circuit Trekking in addition to the peak climbing. It is not only an adventure trip but also an incredible cultural immersion into the local ethnic culture of the region. The places that you walk past and stopover for the night will give you some awesome experiences of local culture and life style. The trek that starts from Bahundanda goes to Pisang on the Annapurna Circuit Trekking trail before heading towards Chulu East Peak. After the climb of the peak, the trip returns to Manang to meet the ACT trail again and goes over Thorong La pass towards Jomsom.
