Trip Introduction

Pachermo peak stands at 6273m and is located in the heart of Rolwaling region. Pachermo peak climbing is not a technical climb, but on account of the altitude and remoteness, it’s certainly quite a challenging one. It is one of the attractive peaks in Nepal and can be approached either from busy trekking trail of Khumbu region or from the off beaten trail of Rolwaling region. Pachermo Peak Climbing in the Rolwaling Himal leads through an area which has remained untouched by the west.

 

The scenery is unforgettable, the route leads along beautiful river valleys before emerging in high alpine country and there are excellent views of Gaurisankar, Melungtse and many other great peaks. The peak climbing of Pachermo starts with a flight to Lukla and then a trek toward the Thame village via Namche bazaar. We walk past the glaciers throughout the day and explore the beauty of the surrounding. Pachermo Peak has become a climb for trekkers crossing the high Tasi Lapcha (5,755m) to Namche Bazaar in the Everest region.

 

From the high camp, we cross the wide snow slopes to gain the ridge of Pachermo. You will have awesome views of the lofty-mountains located in the Everest region, including Mt. Everest, the highest peak in the world and dozens of other peaks located in the region such as Mt. Lhotse, Mt. Nuptse, Mt. Amadablam, Mt. Pumori, Mt. Thamserku, Mt.Kantega are some among others.

FLIGHT

For all the Everest Treks you will be flying from Kathmandu to Lukla and then at the end of the trek, you will need to do the return flight. This flight is very weather dependent and can be delayed or cancelled at short notice if the weather is not suitable for this mountain flight. At Top of the World Treks, we will do our best to manage this situation and if your flight is cancelled we will do all we can to get you on the next available flight. It maybe is possible for a helicopter to be charted but this will be at an extra cost and up to the group at the time.  We plan extra days into our itineraries in case this happens but you are also welcome to plan extra days if you wish.

We can arrange sightseeing and tours in Kathmandu if you wish on these extra days. If the weather continues to see cancellation then it must be decided on the group whether to continue to wait or transfer the trek to another range – such as Annapurna or Langtang.  We will fully advise you if this becomes the case.

 

IMPORTANT NOTE

Please be aware that your safety while in Nepal is our number one propriety.  All itineraries are subject to change if there are safety concerns, health concerns of people in the group and/or weather concerns.  This will be decided by the trek leader but we will always discuss the options with the group where possible to ensure peoples wishes are taken into account, however, the Treks leader decision is final.
