Pachermo Peak Climbing |

Trip code NAP-PPK-213 |

|
Pachermo Peak (6,187m) lies in the Rolwaling
region of Nepal. It is one of the attractive
peaks in Nepal and can be approached either from
busy trekking trail of Khumbu region or from the
off beaten trail of Rolwaling region. It is a
straightforward snow peak first climbed in 1955
along a well defined north-by-northwest ridge
rising from a relatively flat, but crevassed,
glacier that is still the main route to the
summit.
Approached from Rolwaling Region can be
considering a classic way of summiting Pacharmo
Peak. This way you will have good time to
acclimatize yourself before summiting the peak,
an opportunity to trek through one of the most
isolated and culturally diverse area of
Rolwaling valley which lies in the east west
valley below Mount Gauri Shankar (7,145m) also
encountering a dangerous and exciting pass Tashi
Lapcha (5,755m) then finally summiting the
Pacharmo Peak (6,187m). This is a great way of
doing it.
Our approach from Khumbu region follows Everest
Base Camp trek trail till Namche Bazaar. Then
the trails turn west to Thame and then Thengpo
to Ngole to set up the base camp on the moraines
(5,100m). We further continue trekking
north-east of the icefall of Tasi Lapcha and
arrive just below the rock walls where we fix
high camp on rocky terraces (5,500m). From the
high camp we gain the ridge of Pacharmo which is
raised from the glaciers of Tasi Lapcha Pass. We
follow the ridge without much difficulty but
some time crevasses can cause some problems near
to the summit.
