Trip Map
Difficulty to climb
Annapurna Middle Peak is considered the most difficult and dangerous mountain to climb in the entire world. The climbers do face the usual problem of altitude sickness but along with that, they also have to face the unforeseeable weather of this mountain.
This mountain receives heavy snowfall and strong wind not only in winter but at any time of the year. This makes the mountain remain covered by snow throughout the year and eventually makes the climate cold throughout the year. This also causes a high risk of fatal avalanches and snowstorms.
Besides this, even the topography of Annapurna Middle Peak is hard to climb. This mountain has extreme steeply sides on its southern face. The southern face lies 3,000m high and is dangerously steep which makes the climb much more dangerous and difficult.
Annapurna Middle Peak with the best Expedition company
Annapurna Middle Expedition has a lot to offer to its climbers. It embraces the climbers with its breathtaking landscapes and a great escape from their day-to-day life. The climbers can see the diversity in the landscapes that cover from the lower green region to the dry yet massive upper peaks.
However, the climbers have to face many challenges before reaching the summit and getting mesmerized by the surrounding peaks and landscapes. This mountain receives heavy snowfall and strong winds throughout the year. This increases the chances of avalanches and snowstorms that can be fatal to its climbers.
Also, the steep south face of the mountain which lies at a height of 3,000m is another challenge that the climbers have to overcome. And without proper aid and guidance, the climb won’t be possible.

When is Annapurna Middle Peak usually climbed?
The climb to Annapurna Middle Peak is much easier during spring and autumn when the weather is comparatively less cold as well as the chances of heavy snowfall and avalanches are less. Winter expeditions are rarely done as the temperature is harsher than at other times. Also, there will be heavy snowfalls and chances of avalanches are high during winter.
How hard is it to climb Annapurna Middle Peak?
Climbing Annapurna Middle Peak is considered even harder than climbing Mt.K2 And Nanga Parbat as it has the highest fatality rate among the mountains measuring more than 8,000m. The unforeseeable climate is the biggest challenge that one has to face while climbing this mountain.
Annapurna Middle receives heavy snowfall and strong winds throughout the year. This increases the chances of heavy avalanches and snowstorms that can be fatal for its climbers.
Also, the climbing route requires its climbers to cross the southern face of the mountain which is extremely sleepy and also lies at a high altitude of 3,000m. All of these make climbing much more difficult compared to any other mountain.
How long does it take to climb Mt.Annapurna?
Climbing Mt.Annapurna might be an adventurous, thrilling, and self-refreshing activity yet its massive height makes it dangerous too so making a rush might not be the best thing to do considering your safety.
The overall adventure of climbing Mt.Annapurna takes around 41 days. During these 41 days, about a month is needed to reach the summit and return to the base camp.
