Cho Oyu was first climbed by S. Moechler, H. Tichy & P. Dawa Lama in 1954. It stands high above the Tibetan plains on the Nepal/Tibet border and is ideal choice for mountaineers ready to test themselves on the eight thousand peaks. It is the world's sixth highest mountain and revered by locals as a holy mountain. It is widely regarded as the least difficult of the fourteen 8000 m peaks following the tradtional route from the Tibetan side. On a good day the view from the summit plateau is breathtaking, in a sweep you take in the entire panorama of Everest, Lhoste, Ama Dablam Nuptse, Chamlang, and other peaks of the Khumbu as well in Tibet. We enter Tibet via Zhangmu and then drive to Nyalam and Old Tingri, from where we will trek to the Tibetan Base Camp and establish our camps for the climb.
