Pisang Peak Expedition (6091m.)


Pisang Peak rises above the Marshyangdi valley. It was first ascended by J. Wellenkamp as part of German expedition in 1955. This trekking peak is a uniform slope of ice and snow to the final summit pyramid. Pisang peak is also considered one of the easy peaks among the trekking peaks in Nepal. 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. Normally there will be snow at the high camp from the end of November to the end of March.
