Mt. Api Himal Expedition 7,132 m.
Deep in the heart of the Himalayas, nestled between the sweltering Indian subcontinent and the frozen plains of the Tibetan plateau, Api Himal lies in the Humla district - far northwest corner of Nepal. Shadows of the towering Api Saipal range and sacred Takh and Changla Himals loom over this barren forgotten basin of the mighty Karnali River. It is an extreme geographical condition with the elevation fluctuating between 1524 m – 7337 meters. Having an approximate population of 47,000, the natives here still speak an archaic dialect of Tibetan and Nepali languages. Summer in Humla is pleasant while the winter is harsh and cold, leaving the region isolated and mostly snowbound. This is the country beyond a wild and extremely beautiful mountain landscape full of exotic people, rapid Rivers and pristine forest with series of panoramic mountain views such as Nandadeve (6559m), Rajramba (6537m), Kappa Chuli peak (6825m) and others including a very famous and beautiful lake Kalidhunga. Mt. Api Himal offers you for the wonderful trekking and climbing trip in your life time.
