This expedition offers an exhilarating challenge for seasoned climbers, unveiling a complex topography of ridges, glaciers, and ice falls along the way.

Dhaulagiri (8,167m), the world’s seventh-highest mountain, is located in north-central Nepal. The name ‘Dhaulagiri’ is derived from the Sanskrit word ‘dhavala’ which means “White” and giri is “Mountain”. Dhaulagiri’s crest stretches for thirty miles, lending structure to its otherwise tangled topography of twisting ridges, glaciers, and ice falls. Along the main crest, 4 pyramid-shaped like peaks rise from east to west above 25,000 ft.
