Singu Chuli Peak which is also known as Fluted Peak is one of the mountains that attracts numbers of climbers every year. With a height of 6,501m, the peak stands proudly in the Annapurna sanctuary region very near the peaks like Annapurna, Gangapurna, Machhapuchhre, Tharpu Chuli(Tent Peak), and many more. More than 6,500m in height, the peak is not less than any technical and high mountain expedition. In fact, the trekking peak is one of the most technical peaks out there to climb.
Yet, the journey is exciting, adventurous, scenic, and long through the roads of the Annapurna region. With some experience, appropriate training, and hardship on the expedition, a climber can achieve its top. The path to the top is a demanding one but once you scale it the view you get from there is resoundingly breathtaking. You can enjoy a blended view of various snow-dusty mountains of the Annapurna region. Upon the successful climb of Singu Chuli, you’ll be ready for mountains that are a level up.
Hence, Singu Chuli Peak Climbing is for those climbers who are looking for mountains to level up their mountaineering skills. There is this technical section of Singu Chuli Climb which is a bit difficult and needs some expertise to cross it. It is a vertical wall very near to the summit point and only people with alpine and ice climbing experience can be good in this part.
So, yeah, the peak’s expedition is definitely not easy but one thing that you’ll get for sure is the required experience for the next climbs. Also, you cannot forget the beautiful happenings of the trek which includes abundant mountain displays, scenic terrain, and many more. What’s not to go for the Singu Chuli Expedition?
Route for Singu Chuli Peak Climbing
The route to Singu Chuli, obviously, starts from Kathmandu, the capital city of Nepal. As you head out for the expedition, you’ll leave Kathmandu for Pokhara which is the gateway to many Annapurna region adventures. It will be a drive to Pokhara of around 7 hours and upon reaching there, you will take a rest for the day. With the sunrise of the next day, you’ll officially start the journey towards Singu Chuli Peak.
The trek will start from Nayapul after a one-hour drive from Pokhara. Then over some days, you’ll gain altitude by moving from one to another village in the Annapurna region. This beautiful trek will continue and you’ll pass by villages like Tikhedhunga, Ghorepani, Tadapani, Chhomrong, Bamboo, and Deurali. By now you will have reached the major tourist spot of the region, Annapurna Base Camp via Machhapuchhre Base Camp. The scenery around will make you forget all of the pains and tiredness of trekking. You’ll stop at Annapurna Base Camp(ABC) for acclimating your body to the high elevation and to get ready for gaining more heights in days to come.
From ABC(4,130m), the road will head upwards to the base camp of Tent Peak, another popular trekking peak. Then the uphill trek will continue towards the high camp of the Tent peak and there will be rest at that place. The next day, you’ll start climbing the Singu Chuli from High Camp. On the first stretch, the climb will continue up until Singu Chuli Camp I(5,200m). This is from where you should wear crampons to trek ahead. Likewise, moving this way you’ll make it to the Singu Chuli Camp II(5,500m). You’ll take rest there to restore energy for the summit day, which comes right after.
And finally, the day will come when you’ll be showing all of the efforts and hard work for the climb. The summit day surely tests you a bit. There will be a need for ropes, ice axes, and other mountaineering equipment today. The technical section just before the summit point is the most treacherous, it is just a vertical wall. But with your experience and the guidance of your guide, you’ll step on the summit point(6,501) of Singu Chuli Peak. So, this is how the Singu Chuli route proceeds.
Best Time for Singu Chuli Peak Climbing
The best time for any of the expeditions is categorized with stable weather, warm temperature, and better visibility. There are two times that are undoubtedly perfect for Singu Chuli Peak climbing or any other peak in Nepal: Autumn and Spring. Let’s talk about these so-called best times for mountaineering in Nepal.
To begin with Autumn, the season is one of the busiest times of the year for adventures in Nepal. People are so impressed by the conditions of this season that they could not stop themselves at any cost. Autumn starts from late September and remains until early December.
This season comes right after the Monsoon season and as of that, the view is crystal clear. Moreover, the temperature becomes warm and bearable by late September. There is very little probability of any kind of rainfall and snowfall throughout this season. That is why this season is a favorite one for so many climbers. And this can be your time for Singu Chuli Expedition.
Secondly, you can also opt for the expedition in Spring which remains from March to May. This is the time that is picked by most of the climbers for climbs like Everest.
Thanks to its pleasant weather that is aided by the warm sunny days. The temperature adjusts nicely and becomes a perfect time for climbing in the Himalayas. With the sun shining all day, you get the right amount of brightness for the climb. Also, there are very rare chances of any alteration in weather and conditions. This is how Spring has been the right time for climbing mountains in Nepal.
On the other side, there are two seasons, obviously, Winter and Monsoon. Both of the times are not considered appropriate for adventures in Nepal. However, the expeditions are entirely possible but come with lots of risks. The weather is harsh and unfavorable during Monsoon and Winter. For that reason, most of the people do not like to come to Nepal in these seasons. You should do the same.
How difficult is Singu Chuli Peak Climbing?
We have mentioned earlier also that the Singu Chuli Peak Expedition is not an easy piece of cake. It is entirely true and you also have to accept this fact. Although it is considered a trekking peak, the climb of this peak is not as easy as other trekking peaks of Nepal. Singu Chuli Peak whose elevation is 6,501m is a challenging peak, especially for beginners.
To be the right fit for this peak, you should possess some prior mountaineering experience. You should be good at using the ropes, ice axes, and other mountaineering gears other than crampons. The climb has one technical section which can test even the highly experienced ones also. That particular section is just a vertical wall and to come across that wall, you will need ice axes and ropes.
Other than that, the altitude and trekking distance can be a possible threat to climbers. The highest point of the expedition is just above 6,500m which is not a joke for someone who is not used to such altitude. Likewise, you have to trek and climb for around 10 to 12 days to reach the summit point. There is no exact measurement of the distance of the route but the length is seriously long. Therefore, the distance can be a serious headache for those who have not walked that much ever.
If you can overcome all of these difficulties on Singu Chuli Peak Climbing’s journey then you are more than eligible for the expedition. Otherwise, you should get some climbing experience and preparation before daring this one.

Climbing Singu Chuli Peak in the midst of Autumn
Learning about a climbing peak as underrated as Singu Chulu made me hesitant. It kept me thinking about whether I should do the expedition. But being steadfast, my friend didn’t let me give up, and we climbed the mountain in Autumn before winter started. We spent almost two weeks on the trail, climbing hills and terrains day after day. I wouldn’t lie; the expedition was frantic and tiring, but it was worth the effort. I was blown away by the beauty of Singu Chuli and its incredible scenery. You could see the mountains like Annapurna, Himalchuli, and Dhaulagiri from the summit.

In the presence of serenity, Singu Chuli Peak
Climb Singu Chuli! They said. It would be fun! They said. And indeed they didn’t lie because I had a great time climbing the mountain and exploring the places around me. Walking the trail beside sweeping hills and rolling valleys was lovely and overwhelming. I felt completely over the moon after reaching the summit. The view from the top was extraordinary and something I would have never imagined. Seeing gigantic mountains like Dhaulagiri, Machhapuchre, and Annapurna massif was surreal. It took away all my pain and rigidness, engrossing me in nature.

Keeping it close to the heart
Singu Chuli Peak is an adventurous climbing peak in the Annapurna range. But, having little to no idea about the mountain, it was hard for me to decide whether or not to do the climbing. After giving it a lot of thought, I finally decided to have a go, and geez, I did it. The expedition was beautiful, with amazing views of Singu Chuli and its surrounding mountains. I snapped plenty of pictures at the base camp, but the scenery from the top was unparalleled. The excitement I had before and after reaching the summit was inexplicable. It completely changed my perception of mountaineering.

Breath-taking Singu Chuli Peak
The Singu Chuli Peak trek is the best thing that has ever happened. However, there were various technical sections, especially those icy slopes and steep rock climbing. The Guides were kind enough to teach you to use ropes, ice axes, and other mountaineering gear. The mountainside environment was harsh, with winds, dust, and freezing temperatures. But once you reach to summit point, the rewards are worth it! The glorious view of eight-thousanders Mt. Dhaulagiri and Mt. Annapurna.
I can’t thank you enough, Nepal Guide Treks and Expeditions. Excellent Work!!!!

Excellent Experience in Singu Chuli with Our Guide
From the moment, I and my friend bumped into D.B. at the airport, We felt these guys were a safe bet. I had previous experience of trekking or Nepal. But Prakash listened to my plans and put together a great trip. The price was very reasonable, and he managed to get me a guide, Dawa Sherpa, who was happy to carry my pack. He was a great guy to walk with for 27 days, nothing was ever a problem, he always gives me best price for lodging, food, beer + cigarette and other essentials. Whenever I wanted to rest, we rested, when I wanted to push onto the near village, sometimes in the dark, we would. He didn’t complain once. Ever when I suggested we climb Singu Chuli Peak (6501m.) with no climbing experience, he made it happen, using his own experience and Savoy and contacts, We got a permit and equipment from clung, and a second guide, with excellent experience- and up we went. It was the perfect end to a superb trip, huge amount of fun, great exercise, great value. You should use this company, Nepal Guide Treks, they will listen to you and you can trust them on price, knowledge, experience, and general ease + pleasantness to deal with.
Have fun & all the best.
