Pisang Peak Climbing – 13 Days Overview

For mountaineers wishing to combine trekking and peak climbing in a single journey, Pisang Peak climbing is a popular option. Pisang Peak is the right call if you are an ambitious spirit looking for an exciting climbing experience in the gorgeous Himalayas.

Pisang Peak is one of the popular peaks. It lies in the Northern part of Nepal, within the Annapurna region in the Manang district. Pisang Peak stands steadily at the height of 6091m and looks like a pyramid of ice and snow.

The peak was first climbed by the German expedition in 1955. The trail throughout the climb is beautifully decorated with cultural villages and holy sites including Muktinath. Moreover, you come across one of the highest mountain passes called Thorong La Pass.

Besides this, the route also passes through green vegetation, and forest allowing us to see the amazing wildlife of Annapurna Conservation Area. The place consists of many rare animals and plants like snow leopards, red pandas, Himalayan Tahr, etc.

However, the stunning view of Lamjung Himal, and Mount Manaslu remains the main attraction of this trek. Even though the authorities categorize Pisang Peak as easy peak climbing, you need strong physical and mental fitness for this trek and climb.

Safety and Fitness

The road to Pisang Peak base camp is rough, steep, and can be snowy. The trail above the base camp is more challenging. The steep up-and-down trails can be very difficult. You need to be well familiar with mountaineering gear like ice ax, harness, crampons, etc. The extreme temperature and altitude can be a serious problem if you don’t apply the necessary precaution.

Frequently Asked Questions

Temperature and weather
The best seasons to climb this peak is in autumn and spring. The temperature is cold but bearable, the days are less windy, the clear atmosphere makes this peak more appealing. During the spring season, you can see the flower blooming everywhere along with green vegetation. Autumn provides a spectacular view of snow-capped mountains with crystal blue skies. Moreover, these seasons come with few challenges which make the climb relatively easier. The winter season has harsh weather and is covered with snow, sometimes blocking the way. The monsoon is warmer but the trails are muddy and slippery due to heavy rainfall.
Food and accommodation
In lower altitudes, there are enough teahouses available for you to spend your nights. They have a small room with a twin-sharing bed, blankets, and pillows. The room and toilets have to be shared. However, once you arrive at the base camp, there are no such facilities available and the only solution is to camp. You need to prepare tents, camping sites, and food by yourself. Or, if you choose to travel through any agencies they will be the ones to manage all these things and also hire a cook. If you are traveling solo, tents, sleeping bags, mats, liners, cooking gas, utensils are highly recommended.
Transportation
The gateway for your trek is Syangje or Besishahar, to which a bus is available from Kathmandu. It takes almost 6-7 hours to reach Syangje from Kathmandu. Once you reach Syangje, you need to start trekking to Dharapani, Chame and further.
Permits and fees
1) Pisang Peak climbing permit Spring season- cost 250$ Autumn season- 125$ Winter- 70$ Summer- 70 $ 2) Annapurna Conservation area permit NON SAARC countries- 3000 (excluding VAT) SAARC countries- 1500 (excluding VAT) 3) TIMs- 1000 NRS (10$)
Guides and porters
When it comes to peak climbing, professional, licensed, well-educated and experienced guides are everything you need. They lead you, they have great knowledge about directions, people, villages, camping sites, etc. Since you will be carrying all the stuff for camping you will definitely need a porter to help you. Guides usually charge up to 35-40$ per day and porters charge around 25-30$ per day. However, if you choose to travel through agencies they will hire a guide and a porter for you.
Electronics and communication
Most of the teahouses have electricity through a solar panel. There will be no problem with charging your electronics. The teahouses also have telephones and satellite phones. You need to pay extra money to use that. At the higher altitudes, these facilities are not available and you have to entirely depend on power banks and extra batteries.
