Amazing experience

I had an amazing experience with Nepal Social Trek! Starting with clear communication and well-organized trip planning followed by a warm welcome, we were impressed by the great hospitality we received from everyone. The trip was a real adventure, full of happy emotions and beautiful moments shared together. Our guides, Narayan and Govinda, were extremely skilled and knowledgeable. They were not only excellent guides but also beautiful people from a human point of view. After the trek, Nepal Social Trek also arranged a guided tour of the city of Bhaktapur and its temples for us. I absolutely recommend Nepal Social Trek!

Langtang Valley Trek

What an epic trip! Nepal Social Treks were brilliant. Seamless organisation from start to finish. They were always friendly and responsive with communication before I came out, were helpful when it came to hiccups with my baggage. And were flexible with my tour, switching from the Tamang to the Langtang trek with no complaints. My guide - Kamal, and porter - Santa, were both excellent. Kamal was super knowledgable, trustworthy, and great company. Santa’s a legend! The accommodation & food were great. The daily trekking: incredible and just the right level of challenging. I could not recommend this trek enough if you’re after something shorter.

Nepal Social Treks were an amazing company who helped me make memories for my life on a climbing attempt of Island Peak December 2023. Even though it was in the off-season and in December, they ensured I had everything necessary to achieve my goal and enjoy my winter trek. They were also very helpful after the trek and I enjoyed my conversations in their Kathmandu office. I'd recommend my friends to go climbing with them any day.

A trip organized by Simina Cernat our guide from România with a very good collaboration with Nepal Social Trecks. This was an experience of a lifetime rafting mountains nature people… We are grateful we had Lakpa to guide us throughout the trecking. Lakpa carefully addressed all our questions and help us understand Nepali culture he was the best guide friendly, kind, patient and felt very taken care of during our 9days trek on the Annapurna Circuit. At 5000m i had a difficult moment, could hardly walk but Lakpa immediately observed that and he helped me succesfully reach to Thorong La pass. 5416m. Also the two porters Nima and Manut were very nice and helpful. The trip itself was well thought through for our needs and expectations. Thank you Lakpa and high-level

What is the best time to climb Pisang Peak?

The best time for Pisang Peak Climb is during Spring (March to May) and Autumn (September to November). Most of the time, the sky remains clear during these two seasons so that you will get the best view of the mountain ranges. However, the weather in the mountain region can be unpredictable. Wind speed and cloud position constantly keep changing.

You may start on a bright sunny day, but the weather can soon turn to cloudy and windy. Make sure that you set a minimum of 22 days for Pisang Peak Climb, in case of bad weather.

How difficult is it to climb Pisang Peak?

Pisang Peak is one of the famous mountains amongst the Annapurna massif. Climbing this peak is moderately difficult. Although climbing to the Pisang apex is relatively easy, it requires mountaineering skills to conquer the peak. The huge rock in the Western end makes it difficult to cross over. Moreover, the crevassed Glacier hangs on the western flank of the mountain to make the journey quite challenging.

Overall, Pisang Peak is not a technically difficult destination. Anyone with a bit of peak climbing experience who is physically and mentally fit can conquer this peak.

Do I need insurance to climb Pisang Peak?

The path keeps on elevating each day till you reach the peak. You need to be in a good physical and mental state to overcome the challenges during the climb. We recommend that you pursue strength and stamina training before coming to Nepal for the climb.
