Tharpu Chuli Peak, which is more commonly known as Tent Peak is situated in the Annapurna region of Nepal at the head of the Annapurna Sanctuary. The peak was first summited in 1964 by a Japanese group on an expedition to Annapurna South led by Dr Haruo Higuchi. They climbed the South East Ridge, Alpine Grade AD but we will climb the easier north West Ridge, which was first climbed by Gunter Hauser and a German party in 1965. This peak offers an ideal opportunity for those who want to summit a Himalayan peak, but who may otherwise be hesitant to try a higher peak as a Himalayan debut. Besides providing an interesting climb combining glacier travel, face climbing and tip-toeing on knife ridges, a climb on this mountain offers an unparalleled view of the entire Annapurna Sanctuary a breathtaking circle of hanging glaciers and moraines surrounded by some of the highest peaks on earth. The route follows the North-West Ridge to the summit although the mountain has been climbed via the South-East Ridge as well as South-West Face.
The peak is easy to get to, only 6 days trekking at maximum, and gives good/easy snow and ice climbing at a relatively low altitude. It is renowned for its views of the whole Annapurna range and Machapuchare. The peak is initially viewed from the original Annapurna Base Camp
North West Ridge: This route is graded as Alpine PD and is essentially in three stages, first stage to establish a base camp, second to a high camp, third the climb which is in two parts.
