Due to its unique formation, it is not a very technical ascent. However, there are some dangers along the way, from avalanches, to prone slopes, hidden crevasses, and constant snowfalls. Thus, this climb is particularly demanding.
So, we’ll follow all the rules necessary to ensure your safety. My team and I are ready to help you reach the summit of Manaslu!
We’ll depart from Kathmandu, after which, we’ll spend around 10 days reaching Manaslu base camp (4,400m). Later, we’ll follow a route that will take us from Base camp to Camp 1 (5,700m). There we’ll encounter sections with hypnotizing views of majestic glaciers and rock scrambles on moraine, as well as different types of terrain.
After that, when we climb from C1 to C2 we’ll find longer patches of steep ice and snow, including a few vertical ice steps. But, in order to ensure our safety, we’ll use a route fixed with rope in any vertical or exposed sections.
Then, Camp 2 will be at 6,400m. Most climbers can reach it on their first attempt in about 3 to 6 hours. Finally reaching Camp 3 (6,900m) will take us around 5-7 hours, on a less steep route, with some short ice steps.
To conclude our ascent, we’ll climb another 5-7 hours to reach Camp 4, where we’ll rest, eat, hydrate and prepare for the last push. This final part is not technical. But, it is highly demanding due to the altitude.
So, if you wish to join our expedition please send me a request. It would be my pleasure to help you accomplish this dream.

Mountain Guide
I'm a certified NNMGA / UIAGM / IFMGA mountain guide from Nepal. Together with my guiding team, we have been a top expedition seller or organizer for North side expeditions. We have been working very closely with the China Tibet authorities, and were able to obtain permit for complicated expeditions. I would say we have been specialized for North expeditions due to these reasons.
As a guide and mountaineer, I found my passion for the outdoors and climbing early in life when I was first contracted as a trekking guide for a Japanese team to Yala peak (5520m). Since then I have worked with many adventure tourism agencies and successfully summited Mt. Everest, Mt. Cho-Oyu, Mt. Ama Dablam , Mt. Baruntse and many other peaks in Nepal. I'm fluent in German and English which allowed me to guide in the Alps several times. I have a right temperament, I'm dedicated and I have a friendly approach to lead and help the climbing teams accomplish their goals.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
