The Pisang Peak Climbing lets you experience the adventure of the trek and the thrill of an ascent to the pyramidal Pisang peak. Pisang Peak (6,091m/19,984 ft) is situated in Nepal’s Annapurna region on the northeastern side. In 1955, a German Expedition team was the first to acclaim it successfully. This trekking peak is suitable for amateurs. For first-time climbers, Pisang Peak is an excellent choice.

The summit of Pisang Peak provides eye-catching views of the surrounding mountains, including the Annapurna Massif, Chulu Range, Manaslu, Damodar, Glacier Dome, and Tilicho Peak. You’ll also be wandering through magnificent forest roads while seeing various mountain peaks. This trip’s paths are linked to those of the Annapurna Circuit.

The journey to Pisang Peak Climbing begins with a drive from Kathmandu to Besisahar and trekking towards Upper Pisang village afterward. The journey from Base Camp to High Camp leads to the summit of Pisang Peak. At the end of the journey, making your way down the same route and hence driving back to Kathmandu concludes the journey.

Nepal Mountain Adventure has the perfect travel packages for you based on your schedules and interests. We ensure you with the most up-to-date information and advice about the trek and professional guides and lodging while on the trek. We’d be delighted to take you on an adventurous tour.

FAQ

How many days does Pisang Peak Climbing take?

Pisang Peak Climbing with Nepal Mountain Adventure takes 16 to 19 days combining the classic Annapurna Circuit Trek approach through Besisahar and Chame with the Pisang Peak summit at 6,091 m above the high Manang valley before continuing the circuit over Thorong La Pass to Muktinath.

How much does Pisang Peak Climbing cost?

 Pisang Peak Climbing with Nepal Mountain Adventure starts from USD 1,699 per person including the Pisang Peak climbing permit, licensed high altitude guide, porter, base camp camping equipment, all meals, ACAP permit, TIMS card, and all teahouse accommodation on the Annapurna Circuit approach.

How difficult is Pisang Peak for first time climbers?

Pisang Peak at 6,091 m is rated moderate to strenuous for a trekking peak with the standard route involving crampons and fixed rope use on the upper snow slopes but no vertical ice or highly technical sections. It is considered a good intermediate stepping stone between the easier Mera Peak and the more demanding Island Peak or Lobuche East.

What permits are needed for Pisang Peak climbing?

Three permits are required which are the Pisang Peak Climbing Permit (USD 250 spring, USD 125 autumn) from the Nepal Mountaineering Association, the Annapurna Conservation Area Permit (ACAP, USD 30), and the TIMS card (USD 20). Nepal Mountain Adventure handles all permit arrangements in Kathmandu before departure.

What is the best time to climb Pisang Peak?

Spring (April to May) and autumn (October to November) are the best seasons. The Annapurna Circuit approach and the Pisang Peak summit face both benefit from the stable post-monsoon weather of October which is the single most reliable month for summit success on this peak.

What mountains can be seen from the Pisang Peak summit?

From the Pisang Peak summit at 6,091 m climbers enjoy a sweeping panorama of the Annapurna massif including Annapurna II (7,937 m), Annapurna III (7,555 m), Annapurna IV (7,525 m), Gangapurna (7,455 m), Tilicho Peak (7,134 m), and the vast Manang valley and Thorong La area stretching to the west.

Can Pisang Peak be combined with the full Annapurna Circuit?

Yes and this is actually the recommended approach. The Annapurna Circuit Trek provides the ideal acclimatization through Manang (3,519 m) before the Pisang Peak summit at 6,091 m. After summiting, trekkers continue the full circuit over Thorong La Pass (5,416 m) to Muktinath creating a complete Annapurna experience with a peak summit included.

What is the Pisang Peak Base Camp altitude?

Pisang Peak Base Camp sits at approximately 4,300 m above Pisang village in the Manang district. High Camp is established at around 5,400 m and the summit day from High Camp involves a 4 to 6 hour ascent to the summit at 6,091 m followed by a descent back to base camp or Pisang village.

Is Pisang Peak a good stepping stone to higher peaks?

Yes, Pisang Peak at 6,091 m is widely regarded as an excellent progression peak for trekkers who have previously climbed Mera Peak (6,476 m) or completed the Annapurna Circuit Trek and want to add a technical summit challenge to their Nepal experience before attempting more demanding peaks like Ama Dablam or Manaslu.

How does altitude sickness management work on Pisang Peak?

The Annapurna Circuit approach naturally builds acclimatization through Besisahar, Chame, Pisang, and Manang before the summit attempt. Nepal Mountain Adventure builds a mandatory acclimatization day at Manang (3,519 m) into the itinerary and guides carry pulse oximeters and emergency altitude medication for all sections of the Pisang Peak climbing itinerary.
