Trip Overview

Located south of the Annapurna Base Camp, the Tent Peak (5695m), also known as the Tharpu Chuli, provides a journey deep into the Annapurna sanctuary. The Tent Peak Climbing is an amalgamation of the diverse regional flora, beautiful fauna and ethnic Magar and Gurung culture of Nepal's Annapurna. Moreover, the summit of the Tent Peak offers panoramic views of the Himalayas including the many Annapurna massifs. Riddled with some steep ridge climbing sections, the journey is very interesting and quite challenging for those attempting to climb a trekking peak for the first time. 

 

Beginning and ending in Kathmandu, the Tent Peak Climbing commences from Nayapul located near Pokhara, the beautiful lakeside city of Nepal. Climbers wind along an amazing trail that reaches the base camp of Mount Machhapuchhre (6997m) and goes through the ethnic settlements and dainty villages of the region. The climb to the Tent Peak is a rather strenuous journey. This means that the use of ropes, ice axe and crampons are needed. Having a high level of fitness is required to do this. Having previous high altitude trekking experience definitely serves as an asset. Upon completing the climb, you will be greeted by mighty mountains such as Mt. Dhaulagiri (8167m), Mt. Annapurna I (8091m), Annapurna IV (7525m), Annapurna II (7937m), Lamjung Himal (6983m), Machhapuchhre (6997m) and other peaks in the Annapurna region. Likewise, the autumn (Sept. to Nov.) and spring (March to May) seasons are the best time to trek in the Himalayas and summit Tent Peak. During these seasons, the sky remains clear- which means remarkable views of the mighty Himalayan vistas can be enjoyed.
