Singu Chuli Peak Climbing
Singu Chuli, also popularly known as Fluted peak, is said to be very attractive for climbing. This mountain is clearly visible from the Annapurna south base camp. However, you catch a better look if you look from the moraine above the lodges. The general route to this peak goes from the north-east face.
Up to Machhapuchhre base camp, we follow the trekking trail and then we cross the south Annpurna glacier and moraines. Then we climb through the glaciers towards north pass through grassy shelf. Upon reaching there, we set up a camp at an altitude of 4900m. We continue the climb between the glaciers and the flanks of mountain to reach the plateau below the north-east face. We set up our camp I there.. Then we climb towards the right side which leads us below the vertical wall. We follow the culvert on the left and continue climbing to reach upper section of the east ridge and then the summit.

Client Testimonials
Namadste!
While doing trek in the khumbu region, we will witness the different views of mountains such as Kwangde, Thamserku, Nuptse, Lhotse, Ama Dablam, the "horse saddle" of Kanteiga and of course the summit of Everest itself. We take a short rest for a while and it allows us little time for acclimatization. Here, you prepare yourself to explore the ascent of kalapatthar which is an altitude of 5545m. While climbing down from Lobuche, you will see some glacial moraine until the peak comes into view. Finally, you will be witnessing the north face of Mt. Everest . We return through a different route through Panboche to Lukla. We catch a flight for Kathmandu from Lukla.
