On the first day, we will pick you up from the hotels and leave Kathmandu in the morning for Syange by the tourist bus. The scenic drive takes around 130 kilometers on the west side of Kathmandu Valley. Nearly after 7-8 hours of driving, we reach Syange - the starting point of Chulu West Peak climbing. The road is not equally fine in all portions of our drive. The scenery of villages, rivers, farms, green forests, and beautiful mountains provides pleasure to the eye.  Eyes catching view of green hills and valleys, torrential and fast-flowing rivers, villages with old traditional lifestyles, farms fairly undisturbed by modern developments, terraced farming, and a pleasant view of the beautiful snow-capped mountains route will be the highlight of our today’s journey. We will explore the Syange in the evening time and stay overnight in the lodge/hotel.

After breakfast, today we hike from Syange to Dharapani. After crossing a large bridge near Tal, we enter the Manang district and then trek ahead through barley, rice, and potato fields and pine forests encountering beautiful views of the river below the village and attractive waterfalls. The trail continues steeply for some time, takes a dip, and rises again on the high hills to reach Dharapani. Marshyangdi River continues its roar while we trek past the Mani walls, the village of Kodo and we reach Dharapani, one of the big villages in the Manang valley. We will stop our journey and take a rest overnight in the lodge/hotel of Dharapani.

You will wake up early in the morning and observe the beautiful view of sunrise from the hill.

Ahead of this boundary between the Manang area to the north and the Gurung area to the south, the trail follows the river and ascent to Manang Valley and Lower Pisang after crossing a river and then to Upper Pisang which offers a more scenic view. You can experience change in landscape and vegetation, where the terrain becomes arriver and vegetation sparser. After continuing through these wonderful sites we finally reach Pisang. Overnight at Pisang.

On this day you will hike to Manang. The hike is very interesting as the trail now enters into the dry and arid region of Manang district which falls in the rain shadow areas thereby receiving scanty rain in the summer and snow in the winter season. The trail passes through woodland with short uphill and views of staggering Annapurna II and III, Gangapurna Chulu’s, and Pisang Peak. As the walk leads to Hongde village, the tree lines disappear for barren, landscapes with a cold, dry arctic climate. After 4-5 hrs of the hike, you will reach Manang.

The Bhojo Gompa, Gaganpurna Lake, the small and old monastery at Braga, and the office of the Himalayan Rescue Association to get information on altitude sickness. The environment around the valley is cold and the dry climate creates a much harsher environment. After exploring the Manang for a short time, you will return to hotels or teahouses for overnight.

On this day we will learn the basic knowledge of mountaineering. Without any information or any basic knowledge of mountaineering, you can’t climb the peak as the peak lies at a higher altitude, and without any guidance, climbing will be extremely difficult. You will stay at the base camp and take a rest and prepare for next summiting day.

After taking basic training you will start climbing to the high camp in the peak and the snow rock band to the high camp. The route is not that technical but you may have to use ropes, crampons, and an ice axe. You will be camping at a High camp (5,500m/18,150ft) for a overnight in the tent from where you can enjoy the beautiful view of the snow capped mountains.

It's the day of summiting, you will climb the top of Chulu west peak which is very enjoyable and adventurous. Therefore, you will wake up much earlier today as you have to work hard through the icy high-altitude trail to reach the top but the outstanding high Himalayan scenes are amazing which makes you fall in love with the place over the horizon than on our trail. Once you will reach the top, the feelings will be incredible as you have just conquered a peak. Don't forget to capture this beautiful moment and an amazing view of Annapurna II, Annapurna IV, Gaganpurna Peak, and Lamjung Peak. From the top, we slowly return back to the Base and capture a beautiful view of the sunset in the evening. Overnight stay at the base camp.

This day is considered an extra day because the weather at the high altitude is unpredictable and can change at any minute. It will be very hard to climb the peak in bad weather. It is very dangerous so; it is considered an extra day of the weather.

After having an adventurous and memorable mountain climbing journey, you will descend to Manang village. You can enjoy the panoramic views of the Annapurnas and other peaks on the downhill trail before reaching Leder. It will take around 5-6 hrs to reach Leder and overnight stay at Leder.
