Description

Join me for a unforgettable expedition to reach the summit of the Himlung Himal (7,126m) in Nepal.

The Himlung is located in the Peri Himal mountain range. It lies between the colossal Mt. Manaslu and the stunning Annapurna range. So we will get the opportunity to admire up close, some of the most beautiful peaks in this region.

Moreover, the journey we’ll embark on, will take us across remote and intriguing villages in Nepal, right at the border with Tibet. Hence, we’ll pass by through two fascinating Tibetan villages, Nar and Phu. The area we’ll trek across is very remote. Thus, it has not been reached by many tourists. You cannot miss this unique opportunity!

All the villages we’ll visit, guard ancient traditions and are home to some of the most hospitable people you’ll ever encounter. We will have the chance to learn about the local culture and history, and admire the breathtaking architecture.

Then, we’ll start our expedition to reach the top of Himlung Himal. First we’ll reach base camp, which is set at the height of 4,900 meters. Then, three more high camps will be waiting for us. Camp I is at 5,450 meters, Camp II at 6,000 meters and Camp III stands at 6,350 meters.

Finally, one of the many reasons why this mountain is one of my favorite ones, is because technically it’s not so difficult. This means, people that are not necessarily mountaineering experts can join this trip. Also, it is a perfect way to practice for bigger ascents.

So if you are up for the challenge, don’t hesitate and send me a request! It will a trip you won’t be able to forget.

Looking for another challenge in the area? I also guide this 35-day Mt. Ama Dablam expedition in Nepal.

What people are saying about Explore-Share

Man

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Maxine

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

Valeriya

You’re simply the best!!! :))) Explore-Share made everything easy and stress-free. Will definitely use again.

Joshua

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Cami

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
