Parchamo Peak Climbing

of 22 reviews
Generic placeholder image

Overview

Parchamo peak climbing happened in 1995 first time, and thereafter it became popular.  Pharchamo Peak is an attractive snow peak lying south of Tashi Lapcha. It has a north-by-northwest ridge, which rises from the crevassed glacier astride the Tashi Lapcha. The face of the ridge forms a uniform slope broken by crevasse and series rising from the rocky lower buttresses above the Drolambau Glaciers in the west.

Rolwaling valley is the main access to Pharchamo, though this route was closed for most of the 1980s due to potential dangers to porters crossing the Tashi Lapcha. The only other alternative route is from the Khumbu side via Namche Bazar and Thame.
