Pisang Peak Climbing

Pisang Peak, a non-expedition peak in Nepal, is a popular trekking peak offering great opportunities for exploration and peak climbing in the Himalayas. It can be combined with the world-famous Annapurna Circuit Trekking. Pisang Peak rises opposite Annapurna II (7937) and lies in between the famous Mount Annapurna I and Mt. Manaslu.

The Pisang Peak Climbing adventure starts from Besisahar in the Valley of the Marsyangdi River. The trail leads through diverse flora and fauna, past the peaks of Mt. Manaslu and Lamjung Himal. It includes a visit to the Manang Valley and a technical section offering a panoramic view of the Annapurna Himalaya Range from Pisang Peak. The trek culminates with a visit to Muktinath temple and concludes in Jomsom, from where a flight takes you to Pokhara. Alternatively, you can continue trekking through Ghorepani Poon Hill before reaching Pokhara.

Trip Highlights & Attractions

There will be snow at the high camp from the end of November to the end of March. The well-defined ridge leads to the final snow slope, which is quite steep but not rugged, making it attainable to reach the summit. The descent is made on the same route. Pisang Peak (Jong Ri) is located in the northern part of Nepal in the Manang district. It lies between Annapurna I and Manaslu. Pisang Peak (6091m) is the most popular climbing peak among the trekking peaks in the Annapurna region, known for its easy climb. Pisang Peak, 6091 m, is a nearly perfect pyramid of ice and snow. From the summit, there is a spectacular panorama: Himlung, 7126m and the trans-Himalayan Tibetan plateau to the north; Manaslu, 8163 m and Khangaru, 6981 m to the northeast; Annapurna II, 7937 m, and IV, 7525 m, Lamjung Himal, 6983 m to the south; Gangapurna, 7454 m, Annapurna III, 7555 m, Glacier Dome, 7069 m, and Tilicho Peak, 7134 m to the west.
