Hiunchuli is a peak in the Himalaya of central Nepal. The mountain is an extension of Annapurna South.
The mountain is classified as a trekking peak by the NMA, but it is considered one of the more difficult to climb due to route finding difficulties and dangers from rock fall and seracs. A climbing permit from the NMA costs $350 USD for a team of up to four members.
