CHULU FAR EAST (6059 M.) TREK & CLIMBING

This is one of the classic and most rewarding treks in Nepal. The Southern slopes of Manaslu and, Annapurna ranges are heavily sett l ed and farmed except the higher regions that support thick forests of Rhododendron and fir. Most of the tribes inhabiting this area are Gurungs, Magars, Chhettris and Newars. Thakali and Mustang tribes control the busy trading and pilgrimage trail along the Kali Gandaki. One of the most striking significance of this trek is that we have a spectacular view of most mountains range every day.

On this trek before reaching Mustang area one can see the changes in landscape and plants. After crossing a beautiful Pass popularly known as Thorang La pass (5416 m.) a trekker enters in to Mustang region from where the ranges of Dhaulagiri mountain is visible.

About Chulu Far East Climbing (6059m.) South-West Ridge:-

From a camp in the moraines at 5,334 metres below the col separating the East and Far East Peaks of Chulu, gain the col (5608 m.). From the col follows the South-West Ridge on snow and ice throughout to the summit.

There are several short sections of steep snow or ice (45 degrees) and bulges produced by the glacier. Grade Alpine PD. For those who want to shorten the summit day a high camp can be put on or near to the col.
