Yala Peak stands tall at an elevation of (5,500m) in the Langtang valley of the Himalayan country of Nepal. Yala Peak is an excellent introductory trekking peak that only has very minimal technical challenges and thus provides a smooth yet incredible peak climbing experience. It is most suitable for those who cannot afford more time for peak-climbing adventures. The Yala Peak climb offers a rare opportunity to blend adventure trekking with moderately difficult peak climbing, which is nonetheless very gratifying. The mountain lies in the beautiful Langtang Valley, which is located just 30 kilometers north of the Kathmandu Valley. The peak itself is located right in the Nepal-Tibetan border, along with peaks like Langtang Lirung, the beautiful Ganesh Himal Massif, Dorje Lakpa, Naya Kanga and Gangchempo, and the majestic Shishapangma, which stands tall at an elevation of (8,013m) From the top of Yala Peak, where we can also have incredible views of all these mountains panoramically, and also the several glaciers and lakes the region houses,.

Yala Peak is a simple and easy climb suitable for climbers or trekkers who do not have previous experience or knowledge of peak climbing. It is also known as one of the easiest summits to climb in Nepal since we do not need very advanced equipment or a rich climbing background to attempt the ascent. However, climbers do need to be in good health and in good physical condition. The last 400m of the peak are covered fully with ice, so we will have to use equipment like an ice axe, crampons, and ropes to reach the top of the summit. From the top, we can have the most panoramic view of the Shishapangma, Gangchempo, and other satellite peaks towering at varied elevations.

The optimum time for Yala Peak climbing is in October and November in the autumn and April and May in the spring. The months are selected on the basis of visibility and climate. It’s not possible to trek during the winter due to heavy snowfall in the region. We are committed to providing you with the best hospitality in the Himalayas, as your safety and well-being are our number one priority.
