Combining the Rolwaling trek with a summit attempt on Pachhermo Peak is a meticulously crafted adventure designed for seasoned trekkers and ambitious mountaineers seeking an experience that transcends the typical Himalayan itinerary. This meticulously crafted expedition merges the cultural immersion and scenic splendor of the Rolwaling with the technical challenge and exhilarating rewards of conquering Pachhermo Peak.
While the standard Rolwaling trek traditionally commences in Barabise, a more convenient jumping-off point for the Pachhermo climb is Simigaon, a charming Sherpa village nestled deeper within the valley. This shift in starting point allows for a more gradual acclimatization process as you embark on the trek. The trail itself winds through a tapestry of captivating landscapes, showcasing the unique tapestry of the Rolwaling region. Witness the backbreaking yet rewarding labor of the inhabitants as their meticulously terraced fields cling to the mountainsides in a testament to their harmonious coexistence with the land. Dense forests teeming with diverse flora and fauna provide a verdant escape, while the sight of glacial moraines scattered throughout the valley serves as silent reminders of the region’s dynamic geological history. As you ascend, the air thins, and the temperature dips, but the majestic peaks of the Rolwaling Valley begin to dominate the horizon, their snow-capped summits beckoning for exploration, a taste of the challenges and rewards that lie ahead.
For those who crave the thrill of pushing their physical and mental fortitude, Pachhermo Peak, standing tall at an imposing 6,187 meters (20,298 feet), presents a formidable challenge. This is not a climb for the faint of heart. The unforgiving terrain demands a high level of technical expertise and experience in using ice axes, crampons, and ropes. Prior mountaineering experience is essential for navigating the technical sections and unpredictable weather conditions that can arise at high altitudes. Proper acclimatization is paramount for summit success. Establishing a base camp at a predetermined altitude allows for crucial rest days to adjust to the thinning air and for planning and preparation before the final push to the summit.
The ascent of Pachhermo Peak is a demanding yet undeniably rewarding endeavor. A qualified guide or climbing team is not simply recommended, it’s vital to ensure your safety while navigating the technical terrain of snow and ice. Their expertise in route selection, risk assessment, and proper use of climbing equipment provides invaluable guidance throughout the climb. As you finally reach the summit, after battling the elements and conquering your limitations, a breathtaking panorama unfolds before your eyes. Towering Himalayan giants, including Gauri Shankar, Melungtse, and even a glimpse of the majestic Everest, grace the horizon in a majestic display of nature’s grandeur.

Drive north from Kathmandu through the beautiful, high green hills and white mountain views. On the way, we will visit the Bhimeshwor Temple in Dolakha. The last hourโs dusty drive will lead down to our campsite on the Tama Kosi River bank.
Our route follows the Bhote Kosiโs deep valley, which gradually becomes more gorge-like. We crisscross the hectic river on picturesque suspension bridges and pass a few hamlets and villages. The forest occasionally gives way to views of Gaurishankar (7145 m). Although this area is still Hindu, signs of Buddhism, such as prayer flags and chortens, begin to appear.
After a few hours of walking, we leave the valley to continue east. The path slowly gains altitude on an impressive slope and later crosses terraces to reach Simigaon. Simigaon is a Sherpa and Tamang village, marked by its Tibetan monastery perched above the houses on top of the hill in front of Gaurishankar.
We now enter the Rolwaling valley through a gorgeous rhododendron and bamboo forest. The path steadily climbs towards Gyalche. Eventually, we descend back down to the river and establish our campsite on the Rolwaling Khola bank.
We gradually ascend the forested valley of tropical alpine vegetation, which is surrounded by breathtaking mountain scenery. Arriving at Bedding, we should see Melungtse I (7181 m), Rolwalingโs highest summit. Bedding is a small and isolated village. An old village with a historical Buddhist monastery is located in the center of the village.
A short walk will take us to Na, the last tiny alpine hamlet that is only inhabited during the summer months. Na is situated just below the Tsho Rolpa Glacier Lake in a beautiful valley including Chobutse (6685 m), Chugimago (6259 m), and Yalung Ri (5630 m).
We can either take a rest or organize an excursion towards the Yalung La Pass. Here we climb steadily, the path taking us to a vast amphitheater at 4900 m, situated just below the pass, and the Ramdun peak ice fall, which is furrowed with streams. This is an excellent place to view the Tsho-Rolpa glacier lake. In each direction, we get stunning views: to the east, the Yalung Glacier; to the south, Ramdung Peak (5930 m); to the west, Yalung Ri (5630 m), and to the north, the breathtaking Himalayan summits along the Tibetan border.
We climb up to the dam that holds back the Tsho-Rolpa lake, preventing it from splitting the thin moraine and destroying the valleys below. We followed the northern bank, and we must cross a disordered moraine area and only scramble down the height we walked up
The path plunges onward towards the Trakarding glacier. This is a huge and impressive rocky area that gives way to It is now quite a venture to access the glacier. We need to climb up a rock face and set a rope for the porters, helping them scramble up the 160 meters before accessing the campsite area. This provides a fantastic panorama with the Trakarding glacier below and the great glacial wall of the Drolumbau glacier to the north.
We woke up early today, around 3 to 4 a.m., and had breakfast before beginning our climb. We must reach the summit before noon because, in the afternoon, the strong winds in the Highlands might become a barrier to a successful summit. We need to rope up the glacier as it contains several crevasses. The guides will fix a rope wherever necessary. After enjoying the summit views and taking pictures, we descend to Island Peak Base Camp.
The only route to getting a foothold on the Drolumbau glacier is tricky and fairly steep. Our efforts will be rewarded by a unique view towards Tengi Ragi Tau (6943 m), Bigphero-Go Shar (6729 m), and Dragkar-Go (6793 m), with a background of many peaks towards and beyond the Tibetan border. We progress through moraines and gentle slopes, from time to time crossing glacial areas, towards the summit. The campsite is about 300 meters below the summit, just beyond a tricky but impressive rocky section.
Today offers an easy and pleasant descent. Just before arriving in the tiny Sherpa village of Thame, we can visit its picturesque monastery perched on the hillside. Thame lies on an important route for Tibetan traders and their yak caravans trekking across the Nangpa La (5716 m/18,752) on the Tibetan border to Namche Bazaar and beyond.
Namche Bazaar is the Solu Khumbu region’s sherpa capital and home to the Sagarmatha National Park visitor center. There is plenty to do around Namche Bazaar, and the trekker should spend a day here acclimatizing before heading up to the Everest base camp trek.
After breakfast, the trail drops downhill through the pine forest to the bridge and continues walking to the Monju. Again, some rules had to be followed at the National Park checkpoint in Monju before walkers continued to Phakding for lunch. After your all-way treks back to Lukla.
