Chulu West, nestled in the Annapurna region of Nepal, stands at a formidable 6,419 meters. This peak is a well-regarded objective among mountaineers due to its challenging yet rewarding climb. The ascent typically involves navigating a mix of snow, ice, and some rock sections, which require competent alpine skills. The route, often approached via the North-West Ridge, offers a blend of technical sections and straightforward climbing, making it a perfect playground for those looking to hone their skills on a higher altitude peak without the extreme technical demands of the neighboring giants.

Ensure you're acclimatized, as the altitude can be a significant factor in the difficulty of the climb.
