The Chulu climbing is suitable for experienced trekkers & amateur climbers who wish to summit a demanding trekking peaks in the Annapurna region of Nepal. It offers the incredible panoramic views of Himalayan range on the south and Tibet, China on the north. This is more famous and popular than other peaks because Annapurna trek make up for one of the most spectacular Himalayan trekking and climbing outings. The approach to Chulu West diverges from the main trail to the ‘Thorang la Pass’ passing the village of Manang. Base Camp is set up in a small valley to the north. From Base Camp, the route follows a subsidiary Northwest ridge that leads up to the main peak.
