Cholatse

The Cholatse peak rises to 6440 meters within the Mahalangur Himal range, presenting steep faces covered in snow and glacial formations.

The first mountaineers reached the summit through technical climbing routes, establishing pathways that future expeditions would follow on this Himalayan peak.

Local Sherpa communities maintain deep connections to these mountains, sharing their expertise and traditional knowledge with visiting climbers throughout the seasons.

Climbers access Cholatse via Kathmandu airport, followed by transportation to Namche Bazaar, where essential supplies and guides become available.

The north face of Cholatse presents vertical ice walls and technical climbing sections that differ from other peaks in the Mahalangur range.
