Overview
The Hiunchuli peak climbing is a striking approach in the Annapurna region, Nepal. Majestic Hiunchuli peak is located on the lap of Annapurna south and presents the best of Annapurna’s massive view including Gangapurna and Fishtail mountains.
Furthermore, the Hiunchuli peak is a less technically difficult itinerary specially designed for adventure trekkers but is vulnerable to rock falls. Climb Hiunchuli has received little attention from mountaineers and is rarely climbed due to the lack of promotion. The climbing and hiking itinerary cover perhaps the most jaw-dropping scenery of pristine rivers, Annapurna wildlife, and the impressive Annapurna range within Annapurna trekking.
For the first time in the past record, the American expedition company touch the summit over the southeast face in October 1971. It forms a massive south-facing wall together with southern Annapurna. Its eastern face overlooks the Modi Khola and guards the entrance to the Annapurna Sanctuary Hike.
Visit sanctuary Annapurna is a part of our journey. You can see the tallest Annapurna mountains, Gurung villages, splendid landscapes, lush green forests, and some of the oldest local inhabitants along the trip.
In addition, climbing Hiunchuli peak is the top popular trekking peak in the Annapurna zone, Nepal. Roughly about 5% of visitors of Modi valley, plan to climb because Hiunchuli peak deaths are very very low, and possible to ascend at any time (except winter months) throughout the year.

We hike and continue to Dovan where we stay overnight.
Today, your hikes go within the dense bamboo forest and you can see 2 lodges at Himalaya Hotel. Leaving the hotel Himalayas, we ascend up to Hinko cave. If you are lucky enough, you can see wildlife like wild boar, monkeys, rhesus, and other wild birds including the Danphe pheasant. Hinko cave is basically one of the borderlines for extreme adventure avalanches. Almost every year, trekkers are swept away by massive avalanches in wintertime. Cross the river bank and hike to Deurali lodges.
There are two different trails ahead of us; we follow the safe trail that builds by locals to Bagar and to Fishtail base camp. These areas are the most possible for avalanches always be careful during the journey. After Bagar, you are safe to travel all the way up to the fishtail base camp.

We walk on level snow for around an hour, then climb on a steep slope for some hours to get summit which is tough. The highest point of the summit is 6,441 meters above the sea. So, we use fixed ropes to reach the final summit. After successfully ascending the Hiunchuli peak summit, we go down to the base camp.
Walk all the way uphill to the base camp. The glacial trail follows the left-hand tributary of the Modi River. You can see the sunrise with a natural Panoramic spectacular view from the base camp viewpoint. Furthermore, we can see Annapurna 1st, Annapurna south, Barah Shikhar, Hiunchuli peak, Machapuchhare, and other snow-capped mountains and glaciers.

Hiunchuli Peak Climbing Traveller’s Review
Best Experience for Hiunchuli climb
We were a group of 2 Germans (me and my wife) and we started on October 15th from Kathmandu to Hiunchuli peak climbing tour. Ammar made almost everything reservation for our trip such as flight tickets, private coach, jeep, hotel reservation, climbing guide..etc along the trek.
Ammar welcomed us at Tribhuwan international airport (TIA), and picked us up at the center point of Thamel. Meeting our mountain guide Nawang, we arranged all the hiking gear together.
4 of our other porters recruited from Ghandruk village, recognized almost all lodges and the local people. They were strong, friendly, and easy-going.
Furthermore, Ammar´s rates are quite decent, much cheaper comparing others. Don´t hesitate to ask further questions, I am happy to answer, and had a good time there. Best wishes, and namaste from.
