Trip Introduction

Standing at an amazing height of 6,091m above sea level, Pisang Peak is a wonderful and genuinely symmetrical peak in the Annapurna region with a steady climb along a distinct edge to the summit. Situated in the western part of this Himalayan Country, Pisang Peak is the most popular trekking peak in the Annapurna region and can be climbed by most, but it doesn't come without commitment and challenge. Any curious peak climber with little experience and knowledge of peak climbing will definitely be able to climb it as it is not as difficult as other peaks in the region. The journey to the base camp of Pisang Peak is similarly entrancing as well since it gives its climbers an interesting journey passing along diverse cultures, varied ecosystems, and wonderful landscapes. From the summit, you get a mind-blogging view of the Annapurna massif extending from Annapurna II ( 7979m) to Gangapurna (7454m).
