Singu Chuli (6,501m \/ 21,328 ft), also known as Fluted Peak, is a trekking peak in the Annapurna region of north-central Nepal, located within the Annapurna Sanctuary. The peak lies at approximately 28 degrees 32 minutes north latitude and 83 degrees 52 minutes east longitude, in the Annapurna Conservation Area, immediately east of Tharpu Chuli (Tent Peak). Singu Chuli was first climbed in 1987 by an American expedition. The Nepal Mountaineering Association classifies it as a Group A trekking peak, but it is one of the most technically demanding trekking peaks in Nepal.\n\nThe standard route climbs the north-east face, with Base Camp at approximately 4,400m in the Annapurna Sanctuary itself, a High Camp at around 4,900m, and a higher camp at 5,400m. The summit push involves sustained ice climbing on the famous fluted face, with 50-70 degree ice slopes and some vertical steps that require fixed ropes. The technical difficulty is rated D on the Alpine grading system, similar to lower-grade expeditions. Climbers should have previous mountaineering experience including ice climbing and the ability to ascend fixed ropes confidently.\n\nSingu Chuli is named for the distinctive fluted ice face on its north-east side, which gives the peak its alternative name Fluted Peak. The flutes are vertical grooves in the ice, formed by sun and wind erosion, that create challenging and aesthetic climbing terrain. The mountain is significantly more technical than nearby Tharpu Chuli and Hiunchuli, and is rarely climbed due to the technical difficulty. The summit rewards climbers with a 360-degree panorama of the entire Annapurna Sanctuary, one of the most spectacular mountain amphitheaters in the world.\n\nThe approach follows the classic Annapurna Sanctuary trek from Pokhara<\/a> through nayapul<\/a>, Ghandruk<\/a>, chhomrong<\/a>, and the Modi Khola gorge to Annapurna Base Camp<\/a> (4,130m). The region is culturally Gurung homeland, with traditional villages, ancient gompas, and the famous Gurung museum at Ghandruk. The best climbing seasons are spring (April-May) and autumn (October-November). Singu Chuli is one of the least-climbed trekking peaks in Nepal due to its technical nature.<\/p>\n","cost_includes":"All airport pickups and drops in private vehicle\nKathmandu hotel (3 nights, B&B) with welcome and farewell dinners\nDomestic flights where applicable to itinerary\nAll ground transport in private vehicle\nAll necessary permits (TIMS, National Park, Conservation Area, Restricted Area where applicable)\nThree meals daily (BLD) during the trek with tea\/coffee\nTea house or camping accommodation during the trek\nExperienced English-speaking trekking guide and assistant guide for groups of 6+\nPorters (1 per 2 trekkers, 15kg luggage allowance) with full insurance\nSleeping bag, down jacket, and duffel bag (refundable deposit)\nFirst-aid kit, pulse oximeter, and emergency oxygen\nSatellite phone for emergency communications\nAll government and local taxes\nNMA Peak Permit fee\nClimbing guide (Sherpa, NNMGA-certified)\nClimbing equipment (crampons, ice axe, harness, helmet, ropes, carabiners)\nHigh camp tents and cooking equipment\nFixed ropes on summit day\nEmergency oxygen at base camp\nSatellite phone for emergency communication","cost_excludes":"International airfare to and from Kathmandu\nNepal visa fee (USD 30 for 15 days, USD 50 for 30 days)\nTravel and high-altitude rescue insurance (mandatory)\nPersonal trekking gear and clothing\nHot showers, Wi-Fi, device charging, and alcoholic beverages\nLunch and dinner in Kathmandu\nTips for guide, porter, and driver (recommended 10-15% of trip cost)\nCosts from unforeseen events (weather, flight delays, route changes)","itineraries":[{"title":"Ankomst til Kathmandu","content":"\n
