Trip overview

Tent Peak (Tharpu Chuli) is a renowned trekking peak in Nepal’s northwestern area. The peak gets its name from the fact that the mountain’s summit resembles the shape of a tent. Likewise, this renowned peak is a crown in the Annapurna Himalayan Range, located in the Annapurna Sanctuary, north of the Annapurna Base Camp.

Tent peak has a comparatively modest elevation of 5663 meters (1858 feet). This climb is appropriate for climbers who want to test their skills in amateur mountaineering. This minor summit is not as difficult as the Island, Mera, or Yala peaks. Tent peak provides an excellent short trekking and peak climbing experience that will benefit you on your next higher mountain climbing expedition.

The vista from the tent peak is wonderful. The path winds through terraced farmland, green slopes, and Himalayan water streams. The tent peak is only 40 kilometers by air from the tourist destination of Pokhara. On the climb, you will be aided by expert hiking guides and senior climbers with extensive experience.

Are you a seasoned hiker looking to push your limits? Do you want to push yourself beyond trekking and mountaineering? If you answered yes, then tent peak climbing is an excellent option for you. We have a wonderful 18-day package at a reasonable price. Please hurry! And make your reservation right away.
