Baruntse Himal Expedition

Climbing to the summit

Baruntse Himal (7129m) is located at Khumbu region of Eastern Nepal and lies between Mt Everest and Makalu at the epicenter of three glacial valleys – the Barun, the Imja, and the Hinku. It offers a tremendously rewarding climb among the world’s highest peaks. The expedition starts from Lukla passing through several traditional villages of indigenous Sherpa of the Hinku valley providing sufficient time for acclimatization with splendid mountain views. Because of the remoteness of the region, the valley has preserved its old cultures and traditions and is rich in biodiversity.

Panch Pokhari

The Base Camp of Baruntse, at 5200m is located near the Panch Pokhari. We ascend Baruntse through a popular and accessible route via the South Ridge. The camp I is set up just below on East Col. at an altitude of 5,700m and the camp II is on the South-East Ridge at a height of 6,420m.
