Singu Chuli Peak Climbing
Trip Overview
Singu Chuli, formerly known as Fluted Peak, is one of the most beautiful peaks in the Annapurna Region. Strongly suggested for beautiful views of Mountain ranges, this peak, however, is quite technical and challenging as compared to its neighbor peak, Tharpu Chuli (Tented Peak).
While there are several trails to summit this peak, normally the North-East face is used to climb. Climbers willing to climb this peak should be well trained with alpine and ice climbing skills to make it to the top as the vertical wall near the summit pose can be a great technical challenge.
