Annapurna South Expedition in Nepal (7219m.) is very lovely and well-known mountain for climbing in Nepal. Annapurna south situated is north of the Pokhara with huge Annapurna Himalaya range and glorious point together including Hiunchuli (6441m.), Bharha Shikhar (7641m.) Annapurna First (8091m), and others. Renowned and beautiful mountain Fishtail (6997m.) it is not allowed to climb because one of the holy mountain in Nepal is also in Annapurna Himalayan range and 180 degree of view from Ghorepani Poonhill early in the morning with sunrise. Top of Annapurna south with full massive more Annapurna mountain include Mt. Dhaulagiri (8167m.), southern side Pokhara valley and unlike local village in countryside. All the way on Annapurna south climbing is difficult and climbers necessary need well skill about climbing which is very important if in case something happen during climbing period. We use normal trekking until Annapurna base camp (4130m.) but we set up higher base camp for Annapurna south specially, acclimatization in usual base camp and try one small peak before climb up to Annapurna south for more acclimatization.

 

Drive to Nayapul from Pokhara and our walking begin in the lower, more moderate region of jungle hillside such as Gurung, Tamang, Magar and others local villages on the way up your expedition. Annapurna South climbing we take you well off the compressed path, on too long, isolated mountain ridge, through exposit jungle and to look around local villages. As we move superior through the rhododendron (National flower of Nepal) forest the views of Annapurna and Machhapuchhre are amazing. and the Modi valley vegetation nice views on reaching Kopra ridge our campsite is right below Mt. Annapurna 1st. We fixed the base camp for climb to Mt. Annapurna South. The camp one is fixed at the 5000 meter. Camp two is set up at 5970 meters, and camp 3 is at 6400m high. After Camp three can be made top. After final climbing trek back to Pokhara takes us via Jhinu hot spring where you can take enjoy and spectacular Annapurna Himalaya view until the trip ending. South face base camp is located 4000 meters and the advance base camp is on west bank of the glacier between Annapurna south and Mt. Himchuli. Climb up to glacier is a little bit tricky channel on all sides. Views of the Annapurna and the massive mass of Mt. Dhaulagiri and Machhapuchhre are entirely magnificent and harmonize many of our unique camp sites during this classic trekking before expedition.
