Overview
Himalayan Mountaineering Expedition is a magnificent offering of a Ski Mountaineering (Skimo) mission to Ramdung Go Peak (5,925m), which is in the spectacular Rolwaling Valley in Nepal. The trip will be aimed at the enthusiastic and seasoned skiers, who are seeking to enjoy the thrill of alpine skiing and the challenge of mountaineering on a high level.
It is a great ski mountaineering destination in Nepal, with breathtaking views of the Himalayan range, high mountains and pristine glaciers, which surround Ramdung Go Peak. The participants will not only have to climb a gorgeous Himalayan peak but they will also have an opportunity to experience extreme ski fall over a snowy surface and glaciers.
Rolwaling Valley is among the scenic mountain areas that are highly remote in Nepal. Often overshadowed by the famous Everest Expedition routes, this valley provides a quieter and more authentic Himalayan experience.
Trekking and skiers will cross through old Sherpa villages, ancient monasteries and superb alpine landscapes on the journey. The valley is located between the Everest and Tibetan frontiers, and the valley has amazing panoramic scenery of magnificent Himalayan mountains.
Rolwaling is completely untouched and serene unlike the busy trails in Everest, and this makes it the ideal destination of adventure seekers who desire to have a pure wilderness adventure.
This is a technically oriented climbing expedition with a glacier journey and high altitude snowskiing. The path to the summit of Ramdung Go includes slow acclimatisation, crossings of glaciers as well as snow climbs that will equip the members to the ultimate push to the peak.
Once on the summit, climbers are rewarded with spectacular views of Himalayan giants including peaks from the Everest Expedition region, as well as the stunning Rolwaling range. The ski slopes and oceanic snowfields provide breathtaking ski tracks down the mountain, and the experience in the alpine park is difficult to forget.
Every Himalayan Mountaineering Expedition is based on safety and expertise. Hyper experienced mountain guides, Sherpa climbers, and ski mountaineering professionals are part of our group and are full of Himalayan expeditions experience.
On the initial day of trekking up the mountain to the last day of descent, our guides will make sure that we are acclimated properly, the routes are planned and the technical assistance is provided. Going through glaciers or dealing with high-altitude conditions, the team is determined to offer successful and safe expedition.
For climbers and skiers planning bigger Himalayan goals, such as an Everest Expedition or other 8,000-meter peaks, Ramdung Go Peak serves as an excellent training and preparation climb.
