Chamar, Mountain summit in Gorkha, Nepal

The Chamar peak rises to an elevation of 7,165 meters within the Sringi Himal range, positioned between Shyar Khola valley and Tom Khola-Trisuli Gandaki valley.

Maurice Bishop and Nyamgel Sherpa completed the first recorded ascent of Chamar on June 5, 1953, marking a milestone in Himalayan mountaineering exploration.

The mountain stands in the Gorkha district, a region recognized for its military heritage and significant role in Nepal's unification during the 18th century.

Climbing permits for foreigners cost 500 USD during spring season, 250 USD in autumn, and 125 USD for winter or summer expeditions.

The mountain ascends 5,500 meters from the Tom Khola confluence across just 13 kilometers, creating an exceptionally steep vertical profile.
