Overview

Mount Hanuman Tibba is the highest peak of Dhauladhars. It is situated between Tentu Pass and Manali Pass, at an altitude of 5,982 m above sea level. Mount Hanuman Tibba is a famous expedition among mountaineers. Mt. Hanuman Tibba is one of the most stunning and thrilling peak climbing in Manali. It is also known by the name of ‘White Mountain”.

The trek to the demanding Hanuman Tibba starts from Dhundi, near to Atal tunnel and passes through the beautiful alpine meadows of Bakarthach, glaciers and river of Beas Kund and finally across the demanding Tentu Pass giving you diverse change in scenery all throughout the ascend.

Tentu Pass is a mixture of rock, snow, and ice with a gradient of 75° to 80°, which makes it difficult and challenging to climb. Further to Tentu Pass, the traverse which leads us from North – West ridge to South – East Ridge, is full of crevasses. After crossing them, we will set up our summit camp.

Mt. Hanuman Tibba expedition is meant for those aspiring to push their limits and take it up a notch from regular trekking but only with prior trekking/climbing experience since the Hanuman Tibba expedition is no small feat involving technical climb and high fitness level to successfully undertake this epic expedition. Prior experience and knowledge of mountaineering skills, techniques and technical gears like crampons, ice axe, and jumar is mandatory.

The summit offers you panoramic views of the prominent peaks that you get to witness thus making this expedition a once in a lifetime experience. The best time to do the Mount Hanuman Tibba expedition is between the months of May and October.

The Hanuman Tibba expedition trek is a technical climb, you must be in excellent physical condition. It necessitates a 4,500-meter high-altitude trekking & prior mountaineering experience. Workouts and breathing exercises might help you improve your physical fitness. This excursion will take you up to 5,982 meters in height, so you’ll need strong lungs. In such high-altitude weather, your body also needs to stay active.

The Workouts

Walking with a 18 kg rucksack strapped on your back is a terrific way to shape your legs and body. It aids in the burning of calories, the reduction of excess weight, and the strengthening of your body.
For high ascents, stair climbing is the finest workout. Include it in your training routine.
Jogging can help you live longer by strengthening your lungs and improving your life. It’s a high-intensity aerobic activity that necessitates a lot of oxygen. This is an excellent activity for preventing weight and maintaining good health.
Squats are the most effective functional exercise for improving balance. Legs, thighs, hips, and hamstrings are also strengthened.
Pull-ups, push-ups, sprints, mountain climber, burpee, jumping jacks, and 60-second plank (3-5 sets each).
Pushing your body upstairs after stair climbing is another fantastic cardiovascular exercise. This is often considered to be the most effective workout for improving strength and power. Carrying an 18kg pack also helps a lot.
Finally, remember to pamper your body with some breathing exercises, Yoga, and Meditation.
For the best outcomes, eat well, stay hydrated, and get enough of rest.

Remember to bring appropriate clothing, remain hydrated, and stay warm to properly acclimate.
