Pisang Peak Climbing

Overview

Trip overview

A quick summary of the route, support level, and the main things travelers should know before booking.

The Pisang Peak or the Jong RI, rising above the village of Pisang situated on the Annapurna circuit in the Manang District, is one of the most popular climbing peaks in the Annapurna region of Nepal. Shaped like a pyramid, the peak rises 6,091m above the sea level with high camp at the altitude of 5,400m and the base camp at the altitude of 4,380m. Climbers can experience snow at the high camp from the end of November to the end of March. The peak is one of the smallest climbing peaks in Nepal. The summit offers some splendid views of the Annapurna group: Tilicho, Annapurna II & IV, and Gangapurna. The peak was first climbed by a German Expedition in the year 1955.

For mountaineers, the Pisang Peak climbing is one of the famous adventure activities in Nepal. We drive from Kathmandu to Besisahar - the starting point of the Annapurna circuit trekking. We follow the circuit trail up till the village of Pisang, climb the peak, get back to the circuit trail and continue towards the Thorung La Pass (5,416m) – the highest pass of the Annapurna region, then walk down to Jomsom via Muktinath.

Pisang peak climbing, if combined with the Annapurna Circuit trek allows you to better experience the natural and the cultural beauty of the most parts of the Annapurna region. Climbers can experience the variety in landscape, vegetation, climate, flora, fauna, birds and the settlement, lifestyle,  and centuries old monasteries and culture of people living in the Lamjung, Manang and Mustang districts, right below the  Annapurana massif, Dhaulagiri, Nilgiri, Tilicho, Gangapurna, Lamjung Himal and other towering peaks.

Climbing the Pisang peak requires a special permit, technical climbing knowledge and high level of physical fitness, sound health and mental determination. If you have made up your mind, Amigo Treks and Expedition can help you with both the package and the permit. With our standard 18 days Pisang Peak Climbing package, you will be fully supported on 3 meals, tea/coffee (twice a day) and tent in climb, tea-house on other days and bed and breakfast in a deluxe hotel before and after the trek. The package also includes a guided sightseeing day tour to some of the world heritage  sites in Kathmandu. Enjoy free map as well. Or, you have an option! Fully customize the package to your requirements  and budget. We guarantee flat rates, special group discount and 100% departure on each customized package. October & November (Autumn) and April & May (Spring) are the best season to climb Pisang peak in terms of weather, temperature and visibility. Enjoy!

Everest Base Camp Trek

★★★★★

WOW, Where do I start? I have wanted to do this trek for about 30 years, so when we decided to book we compared many trekking companies to decide who to go with and #AmigoTrekking scored the best and they certainly lived up to expectations. We had an amazing journey far better than our wildest dreams. There were a few reasons why our trip was so good and here's why. Prior to the Journey: AMIGO Trekking were so professional prior to the journey, answering my numerous emails in the leadup in regards to gear requirements, weight of rental gear and logistics. We communicated with Niti regularly and she always got back to me within 24 hours. This is very important when trying to plan such a trip. Amigo and Niti were also the only company that effortlessly accommodated our desire to extend our stay in Tengboche to attend the festival at the monastery. (November) Once we arrived:  We were greeted at the airport by a very friendly and professional mountain guide 'Hari Adhikari' who immediately helped us navigate our exit from the airport making a very chaotic situation easy. We felt like royalty. Little did we know at that point just how much this one man would shape our trek into the amazing journey it became. For the next 14 days Hari was by our side perfectly pacesetting our speed for success. He steered us to quality tea houses with the best food for breaks, negotiated the best rooms for us every night and even showed us the best spots for pictures along the way. His experience and cheery disposition was very visible with every interaction he had. He seemed to be best friends with every guide, porter and tea house owner we passed. Hence we nicknamed him 'Happy Hari'. No task was too big or small and he made a point of letting us know where he'd be every night (his room number, tent or dining room) in case we needed him. He was not only the main reason for our successful completion of the Trek, but added many enjoyable moments for us as well. If you are lucky enough to have Hari as your guide, make sure you take a pack of UNO cards with you. Hari loves the game! Along with Hari we were also lucky to have on our team an amazing young man Chandra (Sandra) who was our super human porter. He too always wore a smile, even when lugging our bags over rock after rock! Thanks mate, we don't know how you do it. If we can impart one thing we've learned that will make your Trek in Nepal memorable. It's go with Amigo and insist on Hari and Chandra. You won't regret it! Thanks guys, we are forever grateful.
