Itinerary Description
Introduction Located in the region of western Himalayas is the mountain mass of Bandarpoonch. It is composed of 3 peaks- Bandarpoonch 1 (6316M), Bandarpoonch 2 (6102M) & Black Peak (also known as kala Nag) (6387M). This massif is located in the Garhwal region of Uttarakhand. Locally it is known as ?Hanuman?s tail?. This peak presents an ideal location for the people preparing for the expedition of 7000M or more. Due to certain technical complexities, it is expected from the expeditionist to have prior experience of trekking, use of mountaineering techniques and handling of technical equipment. This peak presents a challenging terrain due to the unpredictable weather and route complexity; it makes it necessary for the climbers to get acclimatized to the conditions of the massif. The Bandarpoonch expedition tales you to the scenic site where you can catch the sight of peaks like Kalanag, Swargrohini, Satopanth and Sudarshan Parvat etc. This area is also the source of Yamuna River. For this summit the prescribed way is through the south eastern region. This summit is going to pose challenge for those who dare to push their limits. Best Time The best time to scale the summit is during the month of May- June and September- October. During this time the summit provides the best route which could be difficult to scale during the other months due to excessive weather conditions. The summit presents a moderate level of difficulty due to the boulders and steep slopes. Thus, it is necessary to acclimatize properly to with stand the unpredictable conditions.
