Chulu East peak/Round Annapurna trek
(19 days)
Trip Difficulty: Grade
5
The Chulu east permit allows two distinct peaks.
Chulu East, and Chulu Far East. Both attainable
from the same base camp, and high camps. These
are attempted from a high camp at 5,334m (17,500
ft) in the Chegagji Khola valley above the Ongre
airstrip. The base is located in the morains above
a guarding cliff and waterfall below the col in
the ridge separating the east and Far East peaks.
Your trip preparation:
This trek is considered as a non-technical
trek and suitable for average people. But climbing
Chulu East peak requires mountaineering experience
and equally needed physically fit. If you are
fit enough and have a sense of adventure you will
enjoy both trekking and peak climbing. This program
is designed to acclimatize you gradually and not
to experience high altitude sickness. However
you are requested to check your altitude fitness
and the itinerary.
We suggest you to strengthen your knee muscles
and prepare for several days of steep descents.
Please note that the following program is prepared
in the fact basis however can be change in some
circumstances but adjustments will have to made
during the trip. We request you to be flexible
with the situation to enjoy yourself.
As the trek is designed for camping arrangement,
everything is handled by our team of porters,
sherpas and cooks who carry the equipment, assemble
and dissemble the camp and have hot meals waiting
for you at every food break.
