Tukuche Peak Expedition Overview
Tukuche Peak Expedition is considered one of the exotic mountain climbs that are combined with the Dhaulagiri trek. TukuchePeak is a marvel, situated in the anterior of Dhaulagiri and the Annapurna Range in the Mustang valley, also considered as the wildest valley of the region. Being secluded, the peak is rarely visited by any of the commercial trekking groups. The expedition to the peak is considered lower risk.
Tukuche Peak offers some of the spectacular views of the entire Annapurna range, Nilgiri range, and mesmerizing villages of Marpha, Syang, and Jomsom.
The journey to the peak is facilitated for about 4/5 days of preparation in the base camp and high camps in the North-East Ridge. The trek towards the peak is made from the deepest valley of Kali Gandaki through a Pokhara-Jomsom flight. The path is filled with majestic mountain views and valleys throughout the entire trekking journey.
The walk to Tukuche Peak is initiated after reaching the HiddenValleybasecamp. Through the base camp, we will have a period of acclimatization to adapt to the altitude. Once the climbing phase is completed, there will be descending to Jomsom to have a rest. The resting period is characterized by one or two days. After that, there will be a flight to Pokhara and proceed to Kathmandu.
