  • Overview

  • Reviews

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.

Pioneer adventure will arrange all necessary infrastructure for your Dhaulagiri climb and summit. We will provide all necessary paper works for the expedition permit, and organize all accommodations before and after the expedition. We organize camp facilities, transport luggage, set up high camps, fix ropes, provide food, high altitude food, high-quality tents, porters, professional Climbing Sherpas, oxygen, satellite telephone, Walky-talky set, counseling, and assistance.

Mt. Dhaulagiri Expedition with Pioneer
I'm very grateful to Pioneer adventure agency, great experience, all Pioneer adventure Sherpas and staffs are very professional, very good behaviour, very understanding, very honest, kind and simple hearted. I feel as my own family. They always follow the Mountaineering rules, they respect Mountain. Pioneer adventure Sherpas always help to learn new things about moutaineeing, so it is very helpful for young Mountaineer to learn from Pioneer adventure agency Sherpas to grow further. Pioneer adventure agency Cooks are also professional they provide very healthy, tasty and hygienic foods, more than sufficient. They are very dedicated, they values life of all climber, they give good advice selflessly. Thank you very much Pioneer adventure agency, I and my family very grateful to you Best Regards Piyali Basak
