Pisang Peak Climbing and Thorung La Pass
Pisang Peak located at elevation of 6091 meters up above from Pisang village in Annapurna Himalaya range and yak pastures in a uniform angle of ice and snow to the final summit pyramid. Pisang peak is considered one of the busy climbing peaks among the trekking peaks in Nepal. To reach the base camp from Pisang village, the path ascends through thin wood and pasture to a Kharka at 4420meters, which is considered the finest place for setting up the base camp. High Camp is set up at 5450meters, climbing to a shoulder on the South-West Ridge. 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 slop, which is quite steep but not difficult to reach the summit. Descent is made on the same route. After the your main adventure of Pisang Peak the trek leads to Thorung La pass (5416 meters), through Manang, Ledar, which are the main attraction of whole Annapurna Circuit trek. Due to the difficulties of crossing the pass, the circuit is usually walked in a counter clockwise direction. After you cross the Thorung La pass the trail take you to the Muktinath then Jomsom from where we can take panoramic flights to Pokhara.
