On our acclimatization day today, we hike to Higher ground and climb up around 400 meters above upper Pisang and come back to Lodge. The afternoon is a free day so you can explore the village. 

After breakfast, we leave the village behind and follow a gradual trail toward Pisang Peak Base Camp. As we gain altitude, the landscape becomes more rugged, offering spectacular views of the Annapurna range and surrounding Himalayan peaks.

Upon reaching Pisang Peak Base Camp, we settle into our tented camp. The climbing guide will provide a briefing on the summit plan, climbing techniques, and equipment to prepare you for the upcoming ascent.

Today is dedicated to climbing training and final preparations. Your experienced climbing guide will teach you the basic techniques required for the summit, including the proper use of crampons, harness, ice axe, fixed ropes, and other climbing equipment.

The rest of the day is spent checking your gear, reviewing the summit plan, and preparing for the climb. An early dinner and a good night's rest are essential before the summit attempt.

After breakfast, we leave Base Camp and ascend to Pisang Peak High Camp. The trail becomes steeper and more challenging as we gain altitude, rewarding us with magnificent views of the Annapurna range and surrounding peaks.

Upon reaching High Camp, we settle into our tents and make the final preparations for the summit. After an early dinner, we rest and conserve our energy for the early morning summit push.

We begin our summit push before dawn, climbing under the guidance of our experienced Sherpa climbing team. After a challenging ascent, we reach the summit of Pisang Peak (6,091 m), where you'll be rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views of Annapurna II, Annapurna III, Annapurna IV, Gangapurna, Tilicho Peak, Chulu Peaks, and many other Himalayan giants.
