Tharpu Chuli or Singu Chuli Peak Climbing.

“Tharpu Chuli Peak Climbing is a popular climbing route in Nepal, people call also Singu Chuli Peak, located in the Annapurna region. The peak offers stunning views of the surrounding mountains and is a great challenge for experienced climbers. It is also a great opportunity for trekkers to gain altitude experience.”

 

In the heart of the Annapurna Sanctuary lies Singu Tharpu Chuli Peak. It is an attractive mountain which is called also Singu Chuli. The Sanctuary is an amphitheatre, with a range of impressive Himalayan peaks forming a vast bowl, accessible only from the south through the Modi Khola River valley. The immense South Face of Annapurna South (7291 m), situated at the head of the Annapurna South Glacier, guards the western flank of the Sanctuary. And in the centre of it all, you can see Tharpu and several mountain ranges. At Tharpu Chuli, at 5663 m., where, from the summit, the neighbouring peaks are seen in splendour.

 

Climbing Tharpu Chuli Peak from South Face Base Camp of Annapurna gives forth a pleasant aroma to climbing teams as well as to those who are merely taking in the scenery. Crossing the South Annapurna Glacier is part of the hike to advance camp. This is not an easy crossing. It requires a steep descent into the glacier over highly uneven ground. While navigating through the mixed mass of broken stones of various sizes on the glacier level. Next, it is necessary to climb the glacier’s opposite side. Reaching the advanced camp takes about 7 hours. Amazing views, though, are the reward for the long expedition. The advance camp is roughly at 4500 m, just on the snowline.

 

The Tharpu Chuli Peak climbing is a desirable mountain, particularly when paired with its location and simplicity of access, due to its relatively low altitude, easy approach, and lack of significant objective hazards. There are undoubtedly many more that might exist. The summit may have attracted a lot of unnoticed attention. Because of the numerous climbing trips that enter this sanctuary. In 1956, Jimmy Roberts gave the mountain its title, “Tent Peak.”

 

For those who desire to climb higher peaks as their first Himalayan climb, this mountain’s a great opportunity. A climb on this mountain offers an unrivalled view of the entire Annapurna Sanctuary, a breathtaking circle of hanging glaciers and moraines encircled by some of the highest peaks on earth. The climb on this mountain is interesting, combining glacier travel, face climbing, and tiptoeing on knife ridges. As well as being entertaining, climbing mountains provides one of the best vistas of the Annapurna range. From its summit, you have a superb panorama of Huinchuli (6331 m/20771 ft), Annapurna South (7219 m/23684 ft), Fang (7647 m/25089 ft), Gangapurna (7455 m/24459 ft), Annapurna III (7555 m/24787 ft), Machhapuchhare (6993 m/22943 ft) and, of course, Singu Chuli or Fluted Peak (6501 m/21329 ft).

In reality, Tharpu Chuli Peak is today's climbing adventure that begins after a 42 km (one-hour) journey via the affluent settlement of Lumle to Naya Pul. We set off on foot, eventually arriving in Birethanti, a sizable and thriving town at the meeting point of the Modi and Burundi Khola. Following the main road, we travel past bamboo groves, a sizable waterfall, and a swimming fissure. As we continue our ascent, the trail gradually ascends the valley's side, leading us to Tikhedhunga.

The hotel will provide breakfast at 7:00 a.m. to get you ready for the Ulleri (2070m) climb. Through farmed fields, the trail climbs steeply over stone stairs for 1.5 hours. The remaining routes go through oak and rhododendron woods. You will reach Nangethanti, where you will eat lunch, after the last hill.

Starting at Tadapani, the trail descends for roughly 4 KM, losing 2700 feet (823m). Large and lovely Rhododendron trees line its path. By way of a suspension bridge, we cross the Kyumrong Khola creek. Be aware that after this point, you cannot purchase bottled water; however, you may get boiling water at the teahouses along the path. The trek begins by ascending Gurung Village and terraced fields. At Gurjug village, we have our day's meal. We arrive in Chhomrong, a lovely settlement situated on the crest of the Annapurna range, after a few more hours of uphill and downhill hiking via a waterfall and suspension bridge. From the lovely Chhomrong Village, the Fish Tail Mountain appears stunning. The majority of people in Chhomrong are Gurung, the ethnic group with the largest population in Nepal.

Today, we follow the valley/gorge of Modi Khola. We depart Chhomrong and down a stone stairway for 150 meters before crossing the Chhomrong Khola on a suspension bridge. Then, past the little town of Tilche amid bamboo, rhododendron, and oak forests, we ascend out of the side valley. We continue to ascend a difficult path to Sinuwa. After that, we make the hour-long ascent through a rhododendron forest to a little waterfall. In the jungle, Langur monkeys are visible. We down a long, steep stone stairway to Bamboo after a little undulation. The vegetation has now been blended with rhododendron and bamboo. We arrive in Dovan after a brief, less steep journey.

The hike will start off on an uncomplicated path with a stunning vista of Machhapuchhre (6997m) and its surrounding peaks. It's a rough route that gets more difficult as we go.

The path going to Tent Peak High Camp is followed. We eventually make it to our intended location after battling through the glaciated mountain passes. For those who don't want to climb, there are alternative possibilities. It may be extremely enjoyable and exciting to hike from camp. It may be as satisfying to view Nepal's stunning Himalayan peaks and diverse ecosystems.

Today, we're going to climb up to a high camp. This trail requires a hard ascent and is rough, so it is suggested that you proceed with extreme caution. Panoramic vistas of Annapurna I (8,091m), Fishtail (m), and Annapurna South will be a blessing to us (7,229m). When we get to the high camp, the tents will be erected. The remainder of the day may be used to train for the journey and become familiar with the climbing gear. In High Camp, you will spend the night at a tent camp.

We'll start our final ascent at about midnight. Our journey to the peak will take around 6-7 hours, during which we will bridge minor streams and traverse glaciers. Ropes that have already been fixed will be used to complete the climb. When we eventually reach the summit, we are overjoyed because our many days of labour will have paid off and we will be treated to beautiful vistas of the Annapurna region's mountains. We will return to base camp after basking in the magnificent occasion and snapping some priceless photos.

We will hike to Deurali today using the same route that we used to ascend. We shall go to Deurali while passing through similar scenery of thick trees and green terrain. We'll also think back on the memories we created while climbing to the top. We will rest our really worn-out legs when we get closer to Deurali. at a lodge in Deurali for the night.

We get farther below by making moderate descents and traversing the declining track. Rhododendron woods in blossom and rich diversity of flora and wildlife may be seen along the walk. We travel via tiny towns to get there, where we take in the natural and cultural splendour of the Himalayan region. Stay the night at a lodge in Sinuwa.

After crossing the river, the trail ascends a side path through rice fields before joining the main path, a stone stairway leading to Chhomrong.
