PACHARMO PEAK (6,187m / 20,298ft)
Trekking through the beautiful Rolwaling
Valley,
ascent of Pacharmo Peak & Everest trek
Lying close to the Tibetan border, Pacharmo is
not a technical climbing, but on account of the
altitude and the peak’s remoteness its certainly
challenging, overall grade Alpine PD+, but also
after a strenuous trek it’s easy climb if
everyone’s well acclimatized though there
are danger of crevasse and avoidable too, and
our objective will be always safe and successful
climb. The views from the summit is stunning and
extremely satisfying climax to the trip. Looking
west on a clear day we will see all of Rolwaling
and as far as Langtang, to the east, the famous
mountains of the Khumbu culminate with Mount Everest
and to the north lie the bastions of Cho-Oyu and
Gyachung Kang. Phil Boultbee and Dennis Davis
were the first persons to climb this peak on 18th
April, 1955, which was led by the well known mountaineer
Alf Gregory.
Rolwaling is a wild and infrequently visited
valley very close to the Tibetan border offering
the trek to be one of the most outstanding and
spectacular high alpine valley in the north east
of Nepal. Starting from busy market at Dolakha
our trek starts through the mixed cultures, first
the Brahmin village, lush forests and then toward
the Buddhist cultured villages. After the last
village at Na(4183m), our trek becomes more strenuous
until we cross Tashi Laptsa. And after ascent
of Pacharmo, we descend via the Everest region
making a circuit of the trek is one of the most
remarkable.
