Tilicho Peak
From £8,950 Altitude 7,134m Grade: 4C
Tilicho Peak
A spectacular mountain in a remote location.
Tilicho Peak (7134m) is a rarely climbed peak that has seen very few ascents! Located to the West of Manang in the Annapurna Range South West of the Thorong La. It is a stunning seven thousand-meter peak that can be completed in just 30 days, identified by our logistics manager Stu Peacock during our 2019 Annapurna IV expedition. This climb will require two camps to be set above Base Camp (C1 5800m, C2 6200m) and involves a mixture of snow and ice combined with good mixed climbing on fixed ropes. Tilicho Peak is a quality 7000m peak and ideal training for Everest avoiding the need to do another 8000m peak. A good peak to climb in the Spring or Autumn, when many other peaks are out of condition. Breath-taking views of Manaslu, and the dramatic Annapurna range.
