Pisang Peak (Jong Ri) is a trekking peak in the Annapurna sanctuary region of North-Central Nepal. It’s located North of the Town of Pisang and Annapurnna II. It’s often climbed as a 3 day excursion from the Annapurna circuit.
An Avalanche in 2005 ended climbing on the old route (South/Southwest Face) which was a very non-technical peak . The new route (West Ridge) with some experience offers a very rewarding and aesthetic climb.
Pisang Peak (6092 m.) is considered as one of the easier climbing peaks among the trekking peaks in Annapurna Region of Nepal. The Pisang Peak has majestically stood up above the village of Pisang and has formed the shape of pyramid in the summit. Pisang Peak lies on the way to the highest pass of the world “Throng La Pass” and offers very good scope for exploration.
