This adventure offers а meaningful and enjoyable great cultural diversities since it passes through Machhapuchre and Annapurna Base Camp. It rewards panoramic views of the world’s tenth highest mountains, and the journey via poon hill is as much as paying for scenic and aesthetic appearance.

The climber requires good physical condition and mountain experience while heading to Singu Chuli, passing through a much accessible neighboring peak Tharpu Chuli (Tent Peak). It needs to generate two high camps at 4,900m and 5,500 meters to approach the North-East face and, finally, reach the Summit. A perpendicular ascending close to the peak appears to have some technical difficulties and requires ice-climbing experience.

So, it may cause us to change the route frequently.
