Day 1
Welcome to Nepal and the start of your Himlung Himal Expedition.
Upon arrival at Tribhuvan International Airport, you’ll be met by the Black Mountaineering expedition team and transferred to your hotel in the heart of Kathmandu. The remainder of the day is yours to relax, recover from your journey, and settle into the rhythm of the Himalaya.
In the evening, we’ll meet for a welcome briefing, expedition overview, and team introductions before enjoying our first dinner together.
Elevation: 1,400m
Overnight: Hotel, Kathmandu
Day 2
Today is dedicated to preparing for the expedition ahead. Following breakfast, we’ll conduct a comprehensive expedition briefing, complete all official permit formalities, and carry out a thorough equipment check to ensure every climber is fully prepared.
There will also be time to purchase or hire any last-minute equipment before we leave the city and begin our journey into the Himalaya.
Overnight: Hotel, Kathmandu (1,350m)
Day 3
Drive From Kathmandu To Besisahar.
After an early breakfast, we depart Kathmandu and begin our scenic drive into the Himalayan foothills. Travelling through traditional villages, terraced farmland, and alongside fast-flowing mountain rivers, we make our way to Besisahar, the gateway to the Annapurna and Manaslu regions.
This is the first stage of our journey towards the remote Nar Phu Valley and Himlung Himal, offering a fascinating introduction to rural Nepal.
Overnight: Lodge, Besisahar (760m)
Day 4
Drive to Koto.
Today we continue deeper into the Himalaya, following the spectacular Marsyangdi Valley on a dramatic mountain road. Passing traditional villages, waterfalls, forests, and towering peaks, we arrive at the remote village of Koto, the gateway to the Nar Phu Valley.
This marks the beginning of our journey away from the popular trekking routes and into one of Nepal’s most isolated mountain regions.
Overnight: Lodge, Koto (2,600m)
Day 5
Trek To Kyang
Leaving Koto, we enter the restricted Nar Phu Valley, crossing suspension bridges and following a spectacular trail through dense pine forests, narrow gorges, and dramatic cliffs. As the valley opens, the landscapes become increasingly wild and remote, offering our first true taste of expedition life.
By afternoon, we arrive at the traditional Tibetan-influenced village of Meta, where we’ll spend the night as we continue our gradual acclimatisation.
Overnight: Lodge, Meta (3,560m)
Day 6
Trek to Kyang.
Today’s trail leads deeper into the remote Nar Phu Valley, following ancient yak trails through a rugged Himalayan landscape. Passing traditional stone settlements, prayer walls, and wide alpine valleys, you’ll experience one of Nepal’s most untouched trekking regions.
By late afternoon, we arrive at the small village of Kyang, where we continue our gradual acclimatisation before moving higher into the mountains.
Overnight: Lodge, Kyang (3,840m)
Day 7
Trek to Phu Gaun.
Today’s journey takes us through the upper reaches of the remote Nar Phu Valley, where the landscape becomes increasingly barren, dramatic, and unmistakably Tibetan in character. Crossing ancient trails, passing centuries-old chortens and traditional stone villages, we arrive at the fascinating walled settlement of Phu Gaun, one of Nepal’s most isolated Himalayan communities.
The afternoon provides an excellent opportunity to explore this unique village, visit its ancient monastery, and continue our gradual acclimatisation before the expedition moves higher into the mountains.
Overnight: Lodge, Phu Gaun (3,900m)
Day 8
Rest & Acclimatisation Day in Phu Gaun. Today is dedicated to acclimatisation, allowing your body to adapt to the increasing altitude while exploring one of the Himalaya’s most fascinating mountain villages. We’ll take a short acclimatisation hike above the village before returning to rest, following the proven principle of “climb high, sleep low.”
This important day significantly improves our chances of a safe and successful expedition as we prepare to move towards Himlung Himal Base Camp.
Overnight: Lodge, Phu Gaun (3,900m)
Days 9
Trek to Himlung Himal Base Camp.
Today we leave the villages behind and enter the true expedition environment. The trail climbs steadily through glacial terrain and high alpine landscapes before arriving at Himlung Himal Base Camp, our home for the coming weeks.
Surrounded by towering Himalayan peaks, Base Camp is where our climbing preparations begin. Over the coming days, we’ll establish our expedition routine, review climbing systems, and prepare for our rotations on the mountain.
Overnight: Himlung Himal Base Camp (4,900m)
Days 10 to 20
Climbing Period — Himlung Himal (7,126m).
Over the next 10 days, we’ll follow a carefully planned acclimatisation and climbing schedule, completing a series of rotations through the high camps before making our summit attempt when weather and mountain conditions provide the optimum window.
Our strategy is built around patience, intelligent decision-making, and flexibility. Throughout the expedition, our elite Sherpa climbing team and expedition leader will continuously monitor weather forecasts, route conditions, and the wellbeing of every climber to maximise both safety and summit success.
Standing on the summit of Himlung Himal (7,126m) is the culmination of weeks of preparation, teamwork, and determination—an unforgettable achievement on one of Nepal’s finest 7,000-metre peaks.
Overnight: High Camps & Himlung Himal Base Camp
Day 21
Return from Himlung Himal Base Camp.
Following the climbing period, you have two options for your journey back to Kathmandu.
Option 1 – Helicopter to Kathmandu
Subject to weather conditions, you may choose to take a spectacular helicopter flight directly from Himlung Himal Base Camp to Kathmandu. This optional upgrade offers breathtaking aerial views of the Himalaya and significantly reduces the return journey. (Additional cost – please enquire with Jason.)
Day 22 – Rest day in Kathmandu
Day 23 – Depart kathmandu for home
Option 2 – Continue with the Expedition Itinerary
For those following the standard itinerary, we begin our trek back through the beautiful Nar Phu Valley, descending to the traditional village of Phu Gaun.
Overnight: Lodge, Phu Gaun (4,200m)
Day 22
Trek back to Meta.
Retracing our steps through the spectacular Nar Phu Valley, we descend through dramatic mountain landscapes, ancient Tibetan settlements, and deep river gorges. With the hard work of the expedition behind us, today is an opportunity to reflect on an incredible journey while enjoying the peaceful beauty of one of Nepal’s most remote regions.
Overnight: Lodge, Meta (3,560m)
Day 23
Trek back to Koto.
Today’s descent marks our final day on the trail as we leave the remote Nar Phu Valley behind. Following forest paths, suspension bridges, and the winding river below, we return to the village of Koto, where a comfortable lodge and a well-earned rest await.
Overnight: Lodge, Koto (2,600m)
Day 24
Drive to Besisahar & continue to Kathmandu.
After breakfast, we depart Koto and begin our scenic drive back through the Himalayan foothills to Besisahar, before continuing on to Kathmandu. Arriving back in the capital, you’ll have time to relax, enjoy a hot shower, and celebrate the successful completion of your Himlung Himal expedition.
Overnight: Hotel, Kathmandu (1,400m)
Day 25
Leisure day in Kathmandu.
Today is yours to relax and enjoy the vibrant atmosphere of Nepal’s capital. Explore the bustling streets of Thamel, visit ancient temples and UNESCO World Heritage Sites, pick up souvenirs, or simply unwind after your Himalayan adventure.
In the evening, we’ll come together for a special Black Mountaineering Celebration Dinner, where we reflect on an unforgettable expedition and celebrate the achievements of the team.
Overnight: Hotel, Kathmandu (1,400m)
Day 26
Final departure home.
After breakfast, our expedition team will transfer you to Tribhuvan International Airport for your onward flight home.
As you leave Nepal, you’ll take with you far more than a successful expedition—memories of the Himalaya, lifelong friendships, and the achievement of standing atop Himlung Himal (7,126m), one of the world’s great 7,000-metre peaks.
Day 27 - 28
Contingency day. A contingency day is built into the itinerary to provide flexibility in the event of adverse weather, mountain conditions, or any unforeseen delays during the expedition.
If not required, this day may be used for additional rest and recovery, further acclimatisation, or an earlier return to Kathmandu, depending on the progress of the expedition.
Our priority is always to maximise the opportunity for a safe and successful summit while maintaining the flexibility that every Himalayan expedition demands.

How Fit Do You Need to Be to Climb Himlung Himal (7,126m)?
Climbing Himlung Himal (7,126m) is a demanding high-altitude expedition, requiring excellent endurance, strength, technical mountaineering skills, and the ability to function at extreme altitude. It is considered a non-technical peak, but due to its long duration, extreme cold, and high-altitude exposure, it demands serious physical and mental preparation.
📌 Physical Requirements for Himlung Himal Expedition
1. High-Endurance & Cardiovascular Fitness
- The expedition takes 20+ days, requiring multiple long summit rotations (6–10 hrs/day) at high altitude.
- The summit day is 12–16+ hours long, gaining over 1,000m in freezing temperatures (-30°C to -40°C).
- Oxygen levels at the summit are only ~40% of sea level, making efficient oxygen use crucial.
✅ Training Recommendations:
- Hike 15–25 km (9–15 miles) with a 20 kg pack at least once a week.
- Stair climbing (45–60 min with a 15 kg pack).
- Running, cycling, or swimming (3–5 times a week, 45–90 min per session).
2. Strength & Load-Carrying Ability
- You’ll be carrying a 15–20 kg pack between high camps.
- The summit push involves steep glacier sections and deep snow, requiring strong legs, core, and upper body.
- Technical climbing sections may require rope work and using an ice axe for self-arrest.
✅ Training Recommendations:
- Squats, lunges, deadlifts (for leg power).
- Step-ups (50 cm box) with a 15 kg pack.
- Planks & core exercises (for stability on uneven terrain).
- Farmer’s carry (15 kg per hand) for grip & pack strength.
- Pull-ups & dead hangs (for climbing and rope work).
3. High-Altitude Acclimatisation
- The climb involves sleeping at 6,000m+ for multiple nights, where AMS (Acute Mountain Sickness) is a major risk.
- Oxygen saturation drops significantly, and even strong climbers struggle with fatigue and low energy levels.
- A pre-acclimatisation climb (such as Mera Peak, Island Peak, or Aconcagua) is highly recommended.
✅ Preparation Recommendations:
- Train at altitude (above 4,000m) before the expedition if possible.
- Use a hypoxic tent or altitude training mask to simulate low oxygen levels.
- Practice slow breathing techniques and oxygen efficiency training.
4. Technical Mountaineering Skills
- Himlung has steep snow slopes (40–50 degrees), crevasses, and fixed rope sections.
- You need experience with crampons, ice axe, fixed ropes, and self-arrest techniques.
- The summit ridge is exposed and requires careful footwork.
✅ Skills to Practice:
- Walking in crampons on steep ice and snow.
- Using an ice axe for self-arrest and balance.
- Ascending and descending fixed ropes with a Jumar.
- Glacier travel techniques and crevasse rescue training.
5. Mental Toughness & Resilience
- The cold, altitude, and exhaustion will push your limits—summit success depends on mental grit.
- You’ll be exposed to -30°C to -40°C wind chill for long periods.
- The climb involves weeks of discomfort in high-altitude camps with low oxygen and extreme fatigue.
✅ Mental Training:
- Train in cold, harsh weather to simulate extreme conditions.
- Push through exhaustion with back-to-back training hikes.
- Practice long, cold early-morning hikes to simulate summit day suffering.
📍 Minimum Fitness Benchmarks for Himlung Himal
You should be able to:
✅ Hike 1,500m+ elevation gain with a 15–20 kg pack (6–10 hrs).
✅ Run 10–15 km in under 60 minutes (for cardio endurance).
✅ Climb stairs for 60 min with a 15-20 kg pack.
✅ Carry a 20 kg pack for multiple days in extreme cold.
✅ Comfortably walk in crampons and use an ice axe on 40° slopes.
⛏ Who Should NOT Attempt Himlung Himal?
🚫 If you have no high-altitude climbing experience (above 6,000m).
🚫 If you cannot hike 8+ hours per day with a heavy pack.
🚫 If you lack technical mountaineering skills (crampons, ice axe, fixed ropes, crevasse rescue).
🚫 If you struggle with cold, exhaustion, and extreme altitude.
Final Thoughts
Himlung Himal is not a technical peak, but due to its high altitude, harsh conditions, and extreme endurance demands, it is not for beginners. If you have previous high-altitude experience and strong endurance training, you’ll be in a good position to summit successfully.
