Himlung Himal was first climbed in 1992 by a Japanese team and when climbed by Adventure Peaks in 2013 there had been only one British ascent of this 7000m peak. We have since operated 5 successful expeditions with clients reaching the summit on each occasion.
Even though it is technically easy, it does require a high level of fitness and is a very cold mountain. We anticipate placing two camps above Base Camp that will be put in place by our strong Sherpa team.
A stunning peak in a remote location with an awesome approach trek!

Maria –
Di was an excellent guide, very helpful and patient in answering all the questions and also creating a friendly atmosphere and a very united group. The in country team provided an excellent service, both in terms of base camp food, tents and general comfort and also in terms of very good climbing sherpas. The climbing sherpas were very strong, the cook was amazing and the tents and comfort provided was above expectations. The Adventure Peaks office were helpful in clarifying all my questions (both over email and phone) and helping me to choose a 7000m peak. Di was a very good leader, I enjoyed spending a month with her and learned a lot from her. Also, she was very good in creating a family/friendly atmosphere with our sherpa team, but also to manage them and organize them so that we have a smooth and successful expedition. The expedition was the best for me so far and I already miss the group and the beautiful surroundings.
