Mt. Baruntse Expedition (7,129m.)
Baruntse(7,129m.) is one of the most beautiful 7000m peaks in Nepal . It is situated between Everest & Makalu. It is also one of the few peaks of this height with a high rate of success of ascent on normal route. The approach to the mountain follows the Mera Peak trek up to Mera La and then to Baruntse base camp. This expedition rewards you with spectacular views throughout.
We’ll establish Base Camp just above the Five Holy Lakes “Panch Pokhari” at 5,400m and one or two higher camps on the mountain. We’ll ascend the 6,100m West Col before establishing Camp 1, where the long ridge leading to the summit is clearly visible. A tricky step at around 7,000m adds further spice to the climb. The route is generally a straightforward snow and ice climb and technically climbing skills and experience demanding.
