Mount Cho Oyu Expedition
6th highest Peak in the World. Technical Climbing
The Cho Oyu attempts the 6th highest peak in the world. An Austrian team first climbed Cho Oyu in 1954. Indian and German teams also climbed this peak in 1958 and 1964 respectively. Many expedition teams have successfully reached the summit.
The year 2004 was regarded as the Golden Jubilee of Cho Oyu; celebrations were organised by the Nepal Mountaineering Association with grand fanfare and jubilation. Around 400 climbers from across the world took part in this golden jubilee ceremony and most of them made the summit. Most Cho Oyu expedition teams now climb from the Tibetan side, due to the easier technical climbing route from there.
