Locally known as Tarphu Chuli, Tent Peak
is situated in the heart of Annapurna
Sanctuary and is among the few snow-clad
summits at this height range in Nepal.
This peak offers an ideal opportunity
for those who want to summit a Himalayan
peak, but who may otherwise be hesitant
to try a higher peak as a Himalayan
debut. Besides providing an interesting
climb combining glacier travel, face
climbing and tip-toeing on knife ridges,
a climb on this mountain offers an
unparalleled view of the entire
Annapurna Sanctuary a breathtaking
circle of hanging glaciers and moraines
surrounded by some of the highest peaks
on earth. The normal route follows the
North-West Ridge to the summit although
the mountain has been climbed via the
South-East Ridge as well as South-West
Face.
