Manaslu Expedition

Manaslu Expedition (8163 m.) (Around 55 - 56 Days)
Manaslu Himalayan Peak known as Kutang is the eighth highest peak in the world with the elevation of 8163 meters. Manaslu, is located about forty miles east of Annapurna I and lies at the edge of one of the most planned Himalayan Valley in the central-western Nepal. It is one of the prevalent 8000m peaks for climbing in the Himalayas of Nepal, especially among Japanese. The mountain's long ridges and valley glaciers offer practicable approaches from all directions culminating in a peak that towers steeply above its surrounding landscape, and is a dominant feature when viewed from afar. At least six different routes to Manaslu Expedition exist today of which the south face is the most challenging in climbing history. Possible avalanches in bad weather, cracks and slippery snow make this mountain a little distinct from other mountains in Nepal. The best climbing season is late spring.
