Great Himalaya Trail 2026

Mountaineering Equipment

For the high passes and glaciers, we require additional climbing equipment. The agency will provide a 300m rope for rappelling, a conventional rope for traversing the glacier and the necessary equipment to build fix points.

In addition we will bring our standard glacier equipment and rappelling devices. All mountaineering equipment will be delivered by porters to the resupply point 2 in Yangla Kharka.
