Yala Peak Climbing — 12 Days — on the trail

Overview

Yala Peak climbing pairs the Langtang Valley approach with a non-technical high camp summit above Kyanjin. Twelve days build acclimatization on the valley trail before glacier skills and an early summit push. It suits Classic Fit climbers wanting a first alpine peak near Kathmandu with licensed guide support.
