Himlung Himal Expedition: 28 Days
Embarking on the Himlung Himal Expedition is the first step towards reaching a summit of over seven thousand meters. This journey allows you to conquer the magnificent Himalayan peak, share your joy, and witness the extraordinary surroundings that are beyond your wildest dreams. The expedition world is both exhilarating and challenging, yet it promises experiences that you will cherish for a lifetime. Himlung Himal (7126m) is a renowned climbing peak situated to the northeast of the Annapurna range, at the eastern end of the Phu Valley, which borders Tibet through Himlung's subsidiary peak, Himlung East. It is quite popular among first-time climbers aiming for seven-thousand-meter mountains due to its relatively straightforward technical challenges and its safety from avalanches and rockfalls.
The journey begins in Kathmandu, featuring a scenic drive along the river valley to Dharapani. From Dharapani, the trek to the classic Annapurna Circuit begins, leading to Koto Village, near Chame Village and the gateway to the Nar Phu Valley trek, a route used by the Himlung Himal expedition. This expedition offers an opportunity to explore both the Annapurna Circuit trek and the Nar Phu Valley trek before proceeding to climb Himlung Himal. The Himlung base camp sits at 4,900 meters, with three higher camps at 5,450 meters, 6,000 meters, and 6,350 meters, respectively. The final ascent to the summit involves a steep and icy path. Typically, the climb to Himlung and back to base camp takes between ten and fifteen days.
Since its opening to climbers in 1992, it was first successfully summited by a Japanese team that same year. To date, there have been nearly a thousand successful ascents of Himlung, particularly after 2013, when Swiss mountaineer Kari Kobler established a new, safer route, making the mountain more accessible. Although it is considered easier than other peaks, climbing Himlung Peak still demands a high level of fitness. Himlung Himal stands as a magnificent peak, offering an incredible trekking experience to its summit.
