Overview

First climbed in 1955, Pharchamo Peak (6,187 M) is an attractive snow peak lying south of Tashi Lapcha. Pharchamo Peak has a north-by- northwest ridge, which rises from the crevassed glacier astride the Tashi Lapcha. The face of the ridge forms a uniform slope broken by crevasse and seraes rising from the rocky lower buttresses above the Drolambau Glaciers in the west. Rolwaling valley is the main access to Pharchamo Peak, though this route was closed for most of the 1980s due to potential dangers to porters crossing the Tashi Lapcha. The only other alternative route is from the Khumbu side via Namche Bazar and Thame. We offer best services and low cost for Pharchamo Peak.
