Rout To Chulu East Peak Climbing

The adventure to Chulu East Peak begins with a scenic drive from Kathmandu to Besisahar, the traditional starting point of the Annapurna Circuit. From Besisahar, the trail ascends through lush subtropical forests, terraced fields, and charming Gurung and Manangi villages, gradually entering the Marsyangdi River valley. As trekkers ascend, they pass through Dharapani, Chame, and Pisang, where dramatic views of Annapurna II, III, IV, and Lamjung Himal dominate the skyline. The route continues towards the picturesque village of Manang (3,540m), a key acclimatization stop nestled below towering peaks and glaciers. Here, trekkers can explore local monasteries and enjoy short acclimatization hikes, such as to Gangapurna Lake or the Ice Lake.
From Manang, the trail veers northeast towards Yak Kharka and then onward to Chulu East Base Camp, situated at around 5,300 meters. The approach to Base Camp traverses alpine meadows, high pastures, and rugged moraines, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding Annapurna giants. After setting up Base Camp, climbers establish a High Camp (around 5,500 meters) to prepare for the summit push. The ascent of Chulu East Peak involves crossing glaciated terrain, ascending steep snow slopes, and navigating rocky ridges. Although the climb requires basic mountaineering skills, including the use of crampons, ice axe, and ropes, it is considered achievable for fit trekkers with prior high-altitude experience.
The summit of Chulu East Peak (6,584m) rewards climbers with a spectacular panorama of the entire Annapurna range, including Gangapurna, Tilicho Peak, Manaslu, and beyond towards Tibet. After the summit, climbers descend to Base Camp and retrace their steps through Yak Kharka and Manang, before rejoining the Annapurna Circuit trail towards Thorong Phedi. Many climbers choose to continue over the iconic Thorong La Pass (5,416m) and descend to Muktinath, adding a rich cultural and scenic dimension to the journey. The adventure concludes with a descent to Jomsom and a scenic flight back to Pokhara, followed by a return to Kathmandu. Chulu East Peak Climbing offers an exhilarating combination of trekking, mountaineering, and cultural immersion in one of Nepal’s most stunning alpine landscapes.
