Trekking Peaks
A total of thirty-three peaks having an elevation of up to 6600m. have been designated as ‘trekking peaks’. The title may suggest that these peaks are easier to attempt than expedition peaks but this is not necessarily true. Some, in fact, are technically very difficult and efforts to climb them have failed of even some highly experienced mountaineers.
OPENED TREKKING PEAKS
Nepal Mountaineering Association (NMA) has declared the following peaks ‘open’ for trekking groups with clinbing permits and fees.
