Pisang
Peak is the most popular among the trekking peaks in Nepal in Annapurna region,
This Peak offers good scope for exploration. The western flank of the mountain
is guarded by a hanging glacier and offers considerable challenge. The western
end of the ridge is guarded by huge rock slabs, which make it difficult to
climb. A German Expedition made the first ascent of Pisang Peak in 1955.

This Peak is
the most popular among the trekking peaks in Nepal in Annapurna region. Trekkers
with little experience in climbing can combine the popular classic Annapurna
circuit trek with Pisang Peak climbing to have the taste of climbing in
Himalayas in Nepal. The peak rises above from Pisang village and yak pastures in
a uniform slope of ice and snow to the final summit pyramid. Pisang peak is
considered one of the easy climbing peaks among the trekking peaks in Nepal. To
reach the base camp from Pisang village, the path ascends through sparse wood
and pasture to a Kharka at (4,380m) which is considered the best place for
setting up the base camp. High Camp is set up at (5,400m) 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.
