Pachermo Peak Climbing from the UK Trip Overview:
The effort to reach the summit of the peak will be truly rewarded with some of the most fantastic views from anywhere in Nepal. You get to witness the Tibetan Buddhist presence with chortens, monasteries, distinct architecture, and fluttering prayer flags. As the peak is demanding peak, the climb asks for technical knowledge at the summit.

Itinerary
$itenary=$package->country($country)->pivot->detailed_itinerary;
Our representative from the Nepal Vision Treks will be receiving you at Tribhuvan International Airport, Kathmandu. He will be displaying a Nepal Vision sign board outside the airport terminal. You will be then transferred to your respective hotel in our private tourist vehicle. In the evening you will have a meeting and briefing about the following Trek by The Nepal Vision representative. Please, grab the opportunity to ask questions about your trek. At the conference, be sure to bring your passport, three passport-sized photos, and a legible copy of your travel insurance policy. We will transfer you for a welcome dinner in one of the typical Nepalese restaurants in the heart of Kathmandu and overnight at Hotel.
After breakfast, we will drive by private car with our professional tour guide for the day tour in Kathmandu. We will visit one of the largest Buddhist shrines in the world to observe the prayers of the Buddhist monks in the monastery around the stupa. After Boudhnath Stupa, we will visit Pashupatinath, the most famous Hindu temple in the world located on the banks of the sacred Bagmati River. Here, we will also see the Hindu sage meditating, bathing the pilgrims and occasionally burning in the cemetery of the high altar (Cremation). We will also visit the Kathmandu Durbar Square, which is a collection of the Shikhara and Pagoda that was built of a brick and wood structure. The major attraction of Durbar Square is the Kumari Temple (The Living Goddess), Kasthamandap, Talaju Temple, the art gallery, and the statue of King Pratap Mala.
After breakfast, we will drive by private vehicle to Singati. After 6 hours, we will drive by private vehicle until will reach Singati. Evening we explore the Singati village. Overnight.
After breakfast, we will begin our journey walking towards the river and then the flat land. While walking through the trekking trail, we will pass through several villages inhabited by different cultured peoples. We will walk through the main trail that will further take us to the beautiful village of Jagat.
After breakfast, we will trek through the forest that is home to ferns, mosses, and small orchids, as well as rhesus and langur monkeys that are often seen jumping across the trees. Crossing the river just downstream from the confluence of the Rolwaling Khola, we will make a steep two-hour ascent to the village of Simigoan. The village is rich with terraces of wheat, barley, and millet. It is a pleasant camp on a sharp ridge at the top of the village offering superb sunset and sunrise views of Gauri Shankar.
We will be walking up the Rolwaling Valley among forests of birch, rhododendron, and conifers. We will enjoy our first glimpses of the rapid glacial blue waters that we will follow to the source and the house-sized boulders that will be scattered in its path. We will have the camp set beside Rolwaling Khola, providing another opportunity for a refreshing wash or to watch the many small water birds darting in and about the river.
We will continue up through the forest. We will cross a swing bridge and trek high on the valley side before vast cliff faces that will make up the northern valley wall. A wide gorge opens to our left that will offer us an impressive view of the south face of Gauri Shankar for the first time. Our Buddhist crew may build a cairn for good luck while we will be in the mountains. As we approach the busy Sherpa village of Beding, there will be yak pastures at the riverside. We will get a view of the fluted face of Chekigo at the head of the valley. The sturdy stone housing reflects the harsh winters the local people must endure.
We will rest for acclimatization. You may have a full day's rest. There are some places where you can hike for a day.
Most residents of Rolwaling are Sherpa yak herders who are only able to grow potatoes and turnips. We will have some appreciation of their hardy existence as we will ascend the valley to the summer grazing settlement of Na. Trekking at an easy pace to ensure good acclimatization, we will make our way along an easy trail beside the river. The vegetation in this place is mostly small shrubs, grasses, and some juniper and birch. Our alpine views will span out as we approach the camp. If we are fortunate, we will have them with us for the next three or four days before a change of scenery. Chobuje, Kang Nachugo, Chekigo, Bamongo, Dorje Phagmo to name a few. Na is the last substantial settlement before we reach Khumbu over the past. We will spend the afternoon in a relaxed environment familiarizing ourselves with the climbing equipment and organizing ourselves for the challenges ahead.
Depending on snow conditions, we will be walking to our lake camp that'll be relatively easy. The path is fairly level, curving to the east and leading towards the Trakarding Glacier. Two fine mountains feed the glacier at the head of the valley and may be seen as we approach the camp. A ten-minute walk from camp up the lateral moraine provides a spectacular view of Tso Rolpa, which is also one of the largest glacial lakes in Nepal. Looking back, we will have a superb view of Kang Nachugo and a glimpse of Melungtse in Tibet.
We will have a full and challenging day as we will be ascending and crossing the moraine toward the pass. The weather may be quite changeable and the rocks on the moraine are often loose necessitating concentration and keeping a steady pace as a group. The camp will be usually made near the base of the Drolambau Glacier with stunning views to the south and east in particular. [Note: Our itinerary is flexible while crossing the pass, and it may be influenced by many factors such as weather, glacier and snow conditions, and the progress of the group and crew/porters.] Your leader will have complete control of setting the schedule to maintain safety for all members of the expedition and to achieve the trip objectives in the smoothest and most efficient.
Again, the weather, snow, and glacier conditions will play a large part in how difficult the route will be. Leaving the Trakarding Glacier behind, we will climb up steadily through several rock and ice gullies to reach the snout of the Drolambau Glacier where we will be treated to a superb new vista of mountains. They will extend the full length of the Drolambau. Few of these peaks have been climbed, nor do they have a formal name, and they are not open to foreigners. It is one of the least accessible parts of the Nepal Himalayas. We will need to make a long, steady trek along the rock/snow Drolambau glacier and then up crevassed snow slopes to the pass. Several sections usually require some scrambling on rock and ice, and if necessary we will fix a rope as a handrail. Our staff will work closely with team members to make a safe passage for all.We will enjoy the thrill of being where we are after getting to the pass. We will be sandwiched between two fabulous regions and mountain ranges. It is also the last view we will have to the west before descending to Khumbu. We must take care as we will make a route down firstly through snow and then mainly loose rock and scree to the moraine plateau below. At base camp, we will be able to pull out all our climbing gear. We have to sort, check it and rehearse and revise techniques we will use on the climb. Your guide will coordinate these activities to ensure everyone is completely conversant in procedures and correctly equipped. It will only be necessary to take personal gear for the climb with you. Any group gear, such as food, fuel, and group climbing equipment/ropes, etc will be carried up by some of our porters and staff. The remainder of the gear will be stored at the base camp where some of our staff will also stay until our return.
From the base camp of Phachermo base camp, we will make our journey towards the high camp of the peak. The climbing way will be little rough as it goes all the way through the snow-covered regions. We will walk for several hours today to complete our destination of the day. The night will be at high camp at the tented camp.
We will have a very early start as our plan will be to summit and return to base in one day. We will make our summit push from Teshi Laptsa camp, ascending the broad north ridge on the main rope at a relatively easy angle. There are a couple of small ice walls that we will have to negotiate before reaching the narrow ridge below the summit. Some pitches are likely to be fixed. We will get the views across the Khumbu Valley and back down the Rolwaling are spectacular. We will return to our high camp on Teshi Laptsa and if time permits we will descend further off the glacier down the valley.
From the base camp of the Phachermo peak, we will trek towards the Ngole. The trek while returning towards the Ngole will be much fun as we will be viewing the glorious view of the surroundings. The trek will continue for about 5 to 6 hours through the main trail which will take us to an altitude of 5,110m above sea level.
We will descend the glacier and moraine to grassy meadows where yaks are often grazing which will also be our first signs of civilization for some days. Before us, we will have an amazing view of the mountains of Thamserku, Kang Taiga, and Ama Dablam forming a spectacular horizon, whilst Teng Kangpoche and Kwangde Ri rise directly beside us to the south. It is only a short walk to Thame, a large Sherpa village at the junction of the Bhote Khosi. Thame has the oldest and most respected gompa in Khumbu and is the birthplace of Tensing Norgay.
Our program will be somewhat flexible for the return journey to Lukla. We should have some spare time available to take a leisurely pace and camp where we please. Namche is the principal town in Khumbu, and it is an opportunity to explore the markets and watch the activity. We may stop here, in a lodge above the town. We will continue on our way, down the valley to Monjo.
We will descend the slopes of Namche to the Dudh Kosi joining the main trail to follow at the riverside through numerous villages to Phakding. On crossing the bridge, we will trek a short distance up and around, to the broad flat spur that Lukla lies upon. We will set up camp on the green slopes at the lower end of the runway. The last night will be a memorable night for an end-of-trip celebration with all the crew and porters.
After an early morning flight to Kathmandu, our guide will help you with the transfer to your hotel. You may have time to relax after your journey and take back your breath. You can also rest at your hotel after ending your Himalayan trip with us.
Some of you might also have a few more days and some other activities planned in Nepal. For the rest of you who are returning, depending upon what time your return flight is, you can go for some last-minute shopping if you like. We will transfer you to the airport hoping it will not be long before we see each other again!
