Annapurna II Expedition

Mount Annapurna II, standing at 7,937 meters, is one of the world’s most formidable peaks and is rarely attempted due to its treacherous conditions. Located in the Himalayas of Nepal, it ranks as the 16th highest mountain globally and is situated along a 45.3-kilometer ridge east of the Gandaki River, which has sculpted one of the deepest river canyons.

Notably, the first successful ascent was achieved by a British/Indian/Nepalese team led by J.O.M. Roberts in 1960 via the West Ridge. Subsequent historic climbs include a Japanese ascent in 1973 up the north face, and Tim Macartney-Snape’s 1983 climb of the south face.

Additionally, on February 2, 2007, Philipp Kunz and his team completed the first winter ascent. The mountain, part of the Annapurna Conservation Area, offers breathtaking views but has a high fatality rate, with a 32% death rate among climbers.

Therefore, before climbing the Annapurna summit, we advise you highly that you complete at least two to five international or high-altitude climbing expeditions. Vinson Mount, Denali, Aconcagua, and Himalayan mountains such as Tent Peak (Tharpu Chuli) , Chulu East Peak , and Island Peak Climbare all wonderful preparation.
