Hike Chame - Pisang

There is a great view of the ice wall of Lamjung Himal jutting into the sky from the suspension bridge in Chame – super view of the beginning of this stage.
 

At the end of Chame there is beautifully decorated chorten – one of the most beautiful you can meet at the trek around Annapurnas.

In less than half an hour walk opens a nice view of the icy ridge towering directly above the forest

In the distance to the east is huge wall of Ngadi Chuli.
 

The path then leads through less interesting landscape via settlement Bhratang up to an interesting place where is the path fired over a canyon to the steep vertical rock walls.
 

The route then passes incredibly smoothed wall of Pangri Danda ridge and cross behind it across the bridge to the other side of the river to a picturesque wooded landscape.
 

Along the way also opens a beautiful view of almost seven thousand high ridge between Lamjung and Annapurna.

On the surrounding ridges you can clearly see based on the vegetation colors how altitude accelerates seasons – somewhere there's still summer, elsewhere already late autumn.

The walk is really quick through the wide valley and after a while you see on the horizon Upper Pisang and ice peak of Chulu. It is possible to go across the bridge to the other side at the lake Dhikur Pokhari and ascent the side path directly to Upper Pisang. But the main path still leads along the west side of the river.

You can see still beautiful wall of Pangri Danda during the back views. Marsyangdi river has here beautifully colored mineralized water.
 

Upper Pisang is nicely located in the hillside. Directly above it slightly peeks out icy top of Pisang Peak.

Lower Pisang ( 3210 m asl ) is full of large lodges and another ones are under construction. There’s nothing you what may excite you. It is far better to cross the bridge and ascend the last 100 altitude meters to old Upper Pisang.

You will see Lower Pisang nice panoramic during the ascent – it is slowly beginning to be something like a tourists “housing estate".
 

In Upper Pisang there is also a nice gompa , where you can participate some of the local ceremonies.
