Situated: The north central Himalayan region of Nepal, which is known as Annapurna himal. Chulu West Peak is one of the popular trekking peaks in Nepal, which falls in the region. The peak rises above from Ledar and yak pastures in pyramid slope shape of ice and snow to the summit. We can climb this peak combine with popular classic Annapurna circuit.
Approach: The route takes us through the Annapurna classic circuit trail, up to Ledar. We leave Ledar and proceed towards 4600m for settlement of base camp then camp I at the plateau (5100m) above the rock. Then go along the secondary ridge followed by a glacier, where we can settle an advanced camp. The route is technically easy but slow, which is long, that leads us to the summit, however, all the peak require enough mountaineering technical experience to scale the trekking peaks.
