Mt. Gangapurna Expedition is one of the best expeditions in Nepal to explore beautiful and mesmerizing views and different diversity of flora and fauna. Mt Gangapurna lies in Manang District of Nepal between Annapurna III and Tilicho Peak with an altitude of 7455m/24,457ft. It is located to the northeast of Mt. Annapurna at the opposite end of Grand Barrier to Tilicho Peak on the shoulder extending 10km from Annapurna directly east of ROC Noir. Mt. Gangapurna is one of the best mountains to climb in Nepal and is excellent preparation for 8000m expeditions. Gangapurna raises high above the Manang Valley with breathtaking views across to AnnapurnaII, III and IV, Glacier Dome, Dhaulagiri, Tilicho Peak and Manaslu. The climb is combined with the classic trek around the Annapurna massif circuit trekking, ascending the Marsyangdi Valley. The climb is technically straightforward but climbers should be very fit and should be familiar using crampons, harness, ice axe, tying knots and handling climbing ropes. Most of the climbing involved will be walking roped together this including the glacial crossings. Our High Spirit Teams are always dedicated with a motto of providing quality of services to the clients in a peaceful environment.
