Trekking around Dhaulagiri is an unforgettable adventure that will bring new bright colors to your life. This peak is one of the most beautiful not only in the Himalayas, but also in the world. And there are many legends and mysteries associated with it, because the southern peak of Dhaulagiri has not yet been conquered. This tour to Nepal will allow you to visit one of the most majestic peaks of the Himalayan range, enjoy the diversity of Himalayan nature and breathtaking panoramas. From the height of the French Pass (5360 m) we will admire an unforgettable view of the Northern Face of Dhaulagiri I. We will also spend the night in the kingdom of eternal snows – the Hidden Valley and the main bonus of the program – climbing Dhampus Peak (6012 m), which offers incredible views of the Himalayas.
We carry out annually, to Everest, to Annapurna, Climbing Island Peak, Trekking around Dhaulagiri. All groups have successfully completed their programs. Trekking groups of 10-12 people.
The percentage of successful ascents to Island Peak tends to 100%. The mountain is technically more difficult than Elbrus, but after trekking to Everest BC, you have good acclimatization, so the ascent is generally easier. The average group for the ascent is 4-6 people. On trekking 10-12 people.
