 Pisang, the most popular trekking peak in the
Annapurna region, looms over the eponymous village,
which offers great views of its ice-and-snow pyramid.
Walk through woods and villages, yak pastures and
secret meadows to reach the curved and steep, but
well-defined ridge. Approached this way – and this
remains the most common route, it's not a terribly
difficult mountain. But more experienced climbers
point to the exploratory possibilities that lie in the
gigantic slabs of rack as well as the hanging glacier
on the western flanks of Pisang.

The route up to Thorong La (5,416 m) is ancient
and still in use by yak and sheep herders. Steep
in parts, you follow switchbacking moraines and
false crests to reach the pass, where you straddle
the sharp divide between two major Himalayan
valleys and look upon the great ridge that divides
Manang from the rest of Nepal, the massive
snowpeaks to the south, and the stark Kali Gandaki
valley. Passing the cairn (holy Buddhist knot of
stones), you will steeply descend switchbacks and
moraines to eventually reach grassy slopes, a
ravine down to the river, and the meadows that
signal your arrival at Muktinath (3,802 m). |
