Tent Peak Climbing Overview

Tharpu Chuli commonly known as Tent Peak is a magnificent mountain located in the Annapurna Range of the Himalayas.

Being 5,663 meters above sea level, it is less difficult than other peak climbing making it perfect for beginners as well.

This trek takes you to the idyllic towns of Nayapul, Tikhedhunga, Ulleri, Ghorepani, Tadapani, Chhomrung, Sinuwa Danda, Bamboo, Dovan, Himalaya, Deurali, Machhapuchhre Base Camp, and Annapurna Base Camp. If you are fortunate, you may also encounter endangered species such as snow leopards, musk deer, and Himalayan black bears during the trip.

The most prominent feature of the Tent Peak climbing expedition is the 360-degree view from the top of Annapurna massif. It is an amazing experience full of excitement of climbing and an opportunity to be acquainted with beautiful nature all around.

Tent Peak is pretty popular amongst the trekkers and climbers of the Annapurna region, and its considerably lower altitude makes it an excellent solution for those who are looking for an adventure that is both difficult and satisfying, but not too extreme like the Mera, Lobuche, or Island peaks. 

In the end, Tent Peak presents you with a memorable trip with the combination of thrill, adventure, cultural discovery, and the magnificence of the Himalayas.

Top 19 Packing List For Trekking In Nepal

Wise packing is extremely important while hiking or trekking. Packaging can either make or break your trekking experience.

You may run out of things during the trek if you pack less. While packing a lot more is not truly rewarding as it enhances the weight of your backpack.

Prior to you start packing, it is really essential to know about the area you are going to. You have to accumulate info on weather condition, surface terrain, elevation, as well as the environment of the place you will be going for trekking in Nepal.

Your packaging listing will additionally vary according to the sort of traveling you choose. It depends upon the variety of hiking days as well as the offered facilities en route.

Teahouse travels demand you to carry much less than the camping-treks.

This list attends to the requirement of ordinary lodge-based trekking.

1) Befriend Layers

This might be true for a lot of the traveling but especially for hiking to high altitudes. Temperature can alter quickly within a span of a day.

While walking and doing physical activity during the day might make you sweat. But, the temperature level might drop dramatically throughout the evenings and nights.

The best way to deal with this transforming temperature is to layer your clothes to change it as you go.

2) Sunscreen and protection

Sunlight is extreme as you go higher in elevation. Don’t underestimate the mountain sunlight although you like to tan.

Traveling with sunburn is unpleasant. Make sure to carry a hat and strong sunscreen to safeguard you from the sun. It is mandatory to carry sunglasses with top quality lenses and UV protection to protect your eyes from burn as well as sore.

3) Backpacks

The comfort of your backpack is really important while trekking. Since you will be lugging it as you stroll for hrs on the harsh mountain trails.

Aim to bring a pack that is able to carry all your essentials as well as yet not too huge to weight you down. It is always a good idea to bring a rain cover for your bag to protect it from rain as well as snow.

Bring Video Camera Bag: If you are planning to lug a DSLR electronic camera. It is much better to lug a different electronic camera bag for protecting your device.

Likewise, do not neglect to bring some dry sack to protect your useful electronic devices from rainfall and also water.

4) Clothing

Convenience is always the most essential while packing for your trekking. Pack your clothes wisely depending on the number of days you plan to Trek in Nepal. In longer treks, you need to reuse your clothing by cleaning or utilizing it inside out. Bring more will just add to the weight of your bag.

Carry clothes that weigh light and dries quickly.

The clothes you wear can easily get damp because of rain, river or even sweating during trips. The wet garments are much heavier thus, lugging garments that dry swiftly is wonderful.

Plus, see to it you lug a raincoat anywhere you go.

5) Hiking Shoes

Given that the most vital part of trekking is hiking, footwear aid shape your traveling experience. It is what you wear on your feet that determines your walking experience.

So, invest in solid comfy shoes and ensure that you’ve used it weeks prior to you take it for your trekking in Nepal.

Additionally, carry Water footwear and flip-flops. After a long day of the walk, you might wish to come out of hiking footwear and also allow your leg to breathe. Flip flops or water shoes are wonderful while you relax in your lodge.

Or, while going across streams that you may discover.

6) Towel

Quick-drying towels are excellent as it is fantastic to begin and also finish the day by washing your face and legs. The damp wipes are wonderful as you can utilize it when you do not get a chance to shower as much as you like.

Wherever you go trekking, you should not endanger on your personal hygiene.

7) Head laps

Electricity is scarce when you are close to nature. Bring a headlamp for simple commuting in the evening.

You might wish to take a stroll around the neighboring towns or discover the night skies and stare at stars. For evening walks, it is excellent to bring along a headlamp.

8) Reusable water bottle

Keeping one’s body hydrated is very vital while traveling. Stand up to the urge to buy bottled water to decrease the waste created by plastic containers in the villages.

Rather, you can carry a recyclable water bottle and load it with the clean drinking water when readily available.

Instead, you can carry water detoxifying tablets to make sure the water you replenish in the bottle is risk-free to consume.

9) Water purification

Safe drinking water might be very costly when you walk in the forests and hills. Maintaining yourself hydrated along the trip is very essential while hiking.

However, you might not get safe drinking water everywhere on the route. To make it drinkable, bring your personal water purification drops or tablets.

10) Sleeping bags

This may not be an absolute requirement while trekking the lodge based treks. But, the sleeping bags may be a great asset when you get hard beds, filthy bed sheets, and also light-cold blankets.

The typical hiking lodge of villages might not always satisfy the western health standards. So, it is better for you if you are mentally prepared for it.

11) First aid kit

This is the most essential thing that you should not miss while packaging for traveling. See to it you bring all the essential medicine for the hiking in addition to an emergency treatment Kit.

Load your first aid kit according to the location of the visit and the number of days of travel. Also, pack it in an easily accessible place so that it comes handy when in an emergency situation.

12) Moisturizing creams and lip balm.

These are a necessity as your lips and also skin might dry up due to the dry hilly air. Great Moisturizing creams and lip balm will secure your skin from drying out.

Your skin, as well as lips, might dry and also crack to discomfort if you don’t maintain them wet.

13) Hiking Sticks.

A hiking stick is wonderful especially for the routes that have regular ascends as well as descends.

If you do not want to carry a commercial walking stick then look for a straight piece of a tree branch. You can sculpt it according to the purpose.

14) Anti-theft bags

Touristic places like Thamel and Pokhara are more crowded. So, at times there are chances of burglary. This is really uncommon as Nepal is among the safe place for tourists.

Yet, I would still suggest carrying an anti-theft backpack for traveling in jam-packed areas.

15) Snacks

Even if you get three meals a day on an expedition, it’s in some cases wonderful to have something to munch on between meals.

It is always a good idea to take some wonderful treats like granola bars or chocolate bars to treat yourself while traveling. These treats will provide that much required extra kick while hiking.

16) Hand Sanitizer

You cannot take the risk of getting sick while traveling. Always take extra precaution while eating.

Additionally, do not fail to remember to make use of a hand sanitizer to get free of germs that make you sick.

17) Toilet Paper

Toilet Paper is one of the most important items to carry while traveling. As you go to more remote areas, Toilet Paper becomes scarce and costly.

It is best to lug sufficient Toilet Paper for your traveling.

18) Extra Batteries and Memory Cards

In a lot of the remote locations, electricity is rare while you go trekking in Nepal. The opportunity to recharge your devices are rare, so it is best to get extra batteries for your gizmos.

You will encounter many picturesque scenes en routes. So, make sure to bring an additional sd card to catch all the beautiful scenes while trekking.

19) Map and Compass/GPS.

Depending upon where you are hiking, bring a map or compass. In the well-marked trails, these might not be an absolute necessity. While in some areas they are as essential to your survival as anything you can bring.
