Himlung Expedition

The Himung Himal (7126m) is located northeast of the Annapurnas and northwest of Manaslu. It’s a recently opened summit in Nepal. It is reached by the very pretty Tibetan villages of Nar and Phu. It is a beautiful mountaineering course with easy passages and other short technical sections, steep but secure by the Himalaya Extreme Adventure team. A quick access to the base camp 4900m by the Phu valley allows a better approach of the three altitude camps: camp I at 5450m, camp II at 5800m, camp III at 6350m.

This Mountain was first climbed in 1992 by a Japanese team and subsequently had few further ascents afterward. The Himlung Himal is technically easy to climb. It is located in very remote and un-trodden area. During the expedition trip, a participant can experience the off beaten path, pristine forest, ancient culture, traditional lifestyle of the mountain people and panoramic Mountain views. Before we Summit the peak, it requires 3 camps to be set up above the Base Camp namely Camp I at 5,450m, Camp II at 6,150m and Camp III at 6,375m. The summit involves steep and icy climb. After summiting, we will descend to Base Camp.
