pisang<\/a> Peak (6,091m \/ 19,984 ft) is a trekking peak located in the manang<\/a> district of Nepal, rising directly north of the village of Pisang on the classic Annapurna Circuit trail. The peak lies in the Annapurna range of the Himalaya in north-central Nepal, approximately 28 degrees 35 minutes north latitude and 84 degrees 10 minutes east longitude. Pisang Peak was first climbed in 1955 by a German expedition led by Jurgen Wellenkamp, making it one of the earliest recorded ascents of any Nepali trekking peak. The mountain is classified as a Group A trekking peak by the Nepal Mountaineering Association (NMA), which issues the climbing permit.\n\nThe standard route climbs the south-west ridge above Pisang village, with a Base Camp at approximately 4,380m and a High Camp at around 5,400m on a broad snow shoulder. The ridge features a mix of scree, snow, and short ice steps, with the final 200m to the summit involving 30-40 degree snow slopes. No technical rock climbing is required, but basic mountaineering skills including crampon use, ice-axe arrest, and rope travel are essential. The summit rewards climbers with a stunning panorama of the Annapurna massif, including Annapurna II (7,937m), Annapurna III (7,555m), Annapurna IV (7,525m), Gangapurna (7,454m), and Tilicho Peak (7,134m).\n\nPisang Peak is a popular first climb for trekkers transitioning to mountaineering because of its moderate technical difficulty, reliable snow conditions, and easy access from the Annapurna Circuit. The climb is typically combined with a full Annapurna Circuit trek including the crossing of Thorong LA<\/a> (5,416m), giving climbers an excellent acclimatization profile before the summit push. The best climbing seasons are spring (April-May) and autumn (October-November), with spring offering more stable snow conditions on the upper mountain.\n\nThe local population is primarily of Tibetan Buddhist Manangi descent, with traditional villages, monasteries, and prayer walls along the approach trail. The approach through the Marsyangdi Valley crosses several climatic zones from subtropical forest at low elevation to the arid Tibetan plateau environment above Pisang. Climbers should be self-sufficient for two nights at Base Camp and one night at High Camp, with all expedition gear portered in. The summit day typically starts at 3-4 AM from High Camp, with 6-8 hours of climbing to reach the top and 3-4 hours of descent back to Base Camp.<\/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":"Arriv\u00e9e \u00e0 Katmandou","content":"\n
