Pisang
Peak rises above from Pisang village and
yak pastures in a uniform slope of ice and snow to
the final summit pyramid. Pisang peak is considered
one of the easy climbing peaks among the trekking
peaks in Nepal. To reach the base camp from Pisang
village, the path ascends through sparse wood and
pasture to a Kharka at (4,380m) which is considered
the best place for setting up the base camp. High
Camp is set up at 5,400m climbing to a shoulder on
the South West Ridge. There will be snow at the high
camp from the end of November to the end of March.
The well-defined ridge leads to the final snow slop,
which is quite steep but not difficult to reach the
summit. Descent is made on the same route.
