Chulu West Peak climbing spring 2025

Ascending mount Chulu West and mount Chulu Central can be best made from a base camp in a small valley north of Manang situated off the main route to Thorong La pass 5416m. We can have the heart touching views of this peak from that pass.

North-West Ridge: Go beyond the hut preceding the yak pastures and walk up a ridge which leads into a hidden valley with the possibility to find a good site for base camp. From this camp, ascend steep slopes to a col (4,900m/ 16,076 ft.), on a subsidiary ridge that leads down from the main crease. To the north of the col, move down via snowy slope for 200 meters to the base of a rock band at the height of 5,100 meters, which is the site for a possible high camp. Climbing the difficult rock band to the north-west shoulder of Chulu west 5450 meters or 17,880 feet, another camp can be established or alter-native a camp can be placed on a snow plateau above 5,530 meters or 18,143 feet. Rope was fixed on the rock band during the first and other ascents. From the plateau continue moving up the narrow ridge to the summit 6,250 meters /20,505 feet. Same route is followed to descend down. Every season Monterosa Treks and expedition organizes Chulu-West Peak expedition.
