Discover the journey
Tharpu peak in more commonly known as Tent Peak & is situated in the Annapurna region of Nepal at the head of the Annapurna sanctuary. It was first climbed in 1964 by Japanese expedition. It is a perfect shot for those who would like to add an adventure of climbing a peak enjoying the magnificence of mountains like Mt. Annapurna, Annapurna I, II, III, IV, Mt. Machhapuchhre and many more. The Tharpu Peak gives good snow and ice climbing at a relatively low altitude and a great experience with amazing views. Even the approach is very enjoyable, the trek follows the lush bank of the Modi khola with plummeting cascades and high waterfalls & through the colorful Gurung villages. This will be no doubt a very memorable experience. The trip involves some steep sections both on the way up & down, so climbers should be familiar with safe climbing\rappelling practices on both rock & ice. The common route used is Northwest ridge, this route is graded as Alpine PD and is essentially in three stages, first to stablish a Base Camp at 4115 m, second to a High Camp at 4870 m & third the climb.
