Chulu East Peak is bounded by the Marsyangdi River and the Mesokanta La to the south, Kali Gandaki to the west and Parchekya La (5,447m) to the north. Chulu East Peak which stands at the elevation of 6,584m is relatively a smaller climbing peak that lies south east of Chulu West. The Chulu East Peak offers amazing scenery of different mountains of Nepal Annapurna Range, Dhaulagiri, Tilicho, Mt. Manaslu and many more. Chulu East climbing is technically difficult for the new climbers. Hence, the climbers must be familiar with the use of climbing equipment like crampons, ice axe, climbing ropes and tying knots.

We begin our climbing tour to Chulu East Peak from Kathmandu to Besisahar and trek the common trial that leads to Annapurna Circuit Trek and reach Chulu East Peak within a week.
