Chulu East Peak

Chulu East Peak Climbing, an enticing trekking peak adventure in the Annapurna Region, attracts thrill-seekers. Situated north of the Annapurna massif, Chulu East (6564m) becomes an appealing climbing destination for trekkers on the Annapurna Circuit. Whether opting for the full or half version leading to Manang, this climb seamlessly extends the trekking experience, offering a feasible introduction to snow climbing for those with some technical proficiency.

Categorized as a scramble at considerable elevation, Chulu East provides a relatively straightforward route with an average slope of 40 degrees, occasionally reaching 50 degrees on rock and snow. This ensures good protection, minimizing climbing risks. The glacier section adds a technical aspect, and once on the Northeast ridge, the ascent becomes easy. However, the climb’s strenuous nature is attributed to the extensive route from High Camp to the summit, offering a safe yet thrilling dimension to the adventure.
