Trip Overview

Pisang Peak

Pisang Peak is the most well-liked peak among peak climbers in the Annapurna region. The most difficult feature in the western portion of the mountains are the hanging glaciers. Climbers find the journey challenging due to the massive rock slabs at the western end.

In 1955, a German expedition team became the first to reach the summit. Climbing this peak requires some technical skill. From the top of Pisang, there is an incredibly captivating vista of Ghangapurna, Tilicho Peak, Annapurna ll and lV, and more.

Because of its gracious beauty, Nepal is constantly brought up while discussing peak climbing, as it is home to eight of the world’s fourteen peaks that are higher than 8,000 metres.

The world first learned about Nepal’s peaks in 1953 when Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay Sherpa successfully ascended Mount Everest (8,848 m), the world’s highest mountain. Ever since, those who dare to climb summits have made Nepal’s peaceful Himalayan ranges their top destination.

This comparatively small South Asian nation’s geographical diversity is a testament to brilliance in and of itself. The nation is bounded by the tropical lowlands of the “Terai,” which rise to a height of 29,035 feet above sea level, and the peak of Mount Everest.

In Nepal, mountaineering is one of the most alluring and daring activities. Those who aspire to climb peaks on foot will surely find heaven in this stunning Himalayan nation. Only Nepal is home to eight of the world’s fourteen peaks rising to an elevation of more than 8,000 metres: Mt. Everest (8850m), Kanchenjunga (8586m), Lhotse (8516m), Makalu (8463m), Cho Oyu (8201m), Dhaulagiri (8167m), Manaslu (8163m), and Annapurna (8091m).

RTe & Expedition offers its finest services with skilled climbing Sherpas for the heavenly experience of peak climbing at a fee that is customisable and does not include royalties or other expenses that are the responsibility of the government.

Size of Trekking

Pisang Peak

There will be one Sherpa porter (one porter for every two trekkers) and one leader for every trek. The purpose of this structure is to ensure that the campaign runs smoothly. It guarantees that, should anyone in the group become unwell, the tour will proceed according to schedule. This hike can be led by RT for any size group. However, ten people is seen to be the ideal group size. But, RT can also set this up if your group numbers more than ten.

Accommodations

During our tour, we will stay at opulent hotels or authentic tea houses every night. For this trek, all lodging will be shared by twins. Single rooms, however, can also be provided upon request for an extra $300 to $350 US. If there are locations where single rooms are not available, you will need to make alterations.

Meals

We will eat a variety of ethnic and foreign foods, including Tibetan, Continental, Italian, and Indian cuisines, in addition to traditional Nepalese cuisine while on our trip. You can also indulge in a range of nibbles, hot chocolates, and breads and drinks.

According to its menu, breakfast will be provided in the same tea house or lodge where we spent the night. Dinner will be served in the tea house where you spend the night, and lunch will be served the route to your destination. During our time in Kathmandu, we will be offered breakfasts, a welcome dinner, and a farewell meal.

Getting Visa for Nepal

You will receive a Nepalese visa upon arrival. You will receive a 15–5 month tourist visa upon arrival in Nepal. Depending on why you are visiting, you will be granted a 15- to 3-month visa for tours.
