Full Board Kula Kangri 7538m. Expedition spring 2009

Mount Kula Kangri is the famous Mountain, which is opened for the climbing expedition from “Tibet-China mountaineering Association”. The route fallows from Kathmandu’ via Zhangmu, Nyalm, Tingri, Ghantse to reach the Kula Khanri Base camp.

Kula Kangri is the highest mountain range stretching along the border between Bhutan and Tibet.

Many sources cite it as the highest mountain in Bhutan, but it is situated exactly in between the boarder of Bhutan and Tibet.

Kula Kangri is a beautiful big peak with three summits, the west summit being the highest. The north face is an intimidating wall of rock and ices over 2000m high that is almost entirely capped by seracs. The south face is equally big and steep. The eastern and western ends are significantly easier for the climbing reason, but both are long and difficult routes.

Climbing Sherpa for Himalayan:

We facilitate highly professional, well trained and qualified climbing Sherpas for the your expeditions. Many climbers avoid Sherpa guides for the climbing, so because of this, they have been found to facing many hindrances on their way. If you take Sherpas along with you on the expedition, they are very useful in your each and every step of support, which makes your climbing easier to restore your strained energy; and it gives you vigorous strength for your next day’s climbing. Most of the groups, who have gone with the Sherpa guides on the expedition, is found to be succeeded as per our past experiences. So we suggest you to operate your expeditions along with the Sherpa guides.
