Baruntse expedition autumn | Mt. Baruntse expedition- 7129m

Situated at an altitude of 7129 meters above the sea level,Mount Baruntse is another peak situated in between on the lap of Mt. Everest and Mount Makalu. Colin Todd and Geoff Harrow were the first to step on its top on 30 May 1954 successfully via South-East Ridge despite of its straightforward difficult route. After them, many climbers have used the same route and successfully climbed up to its peak.

One should face hard sections of 50 Degree's elevations with a prominent ice cliff to be climbed with the risk of avalanche from the South-East ridge. Although spring is the best season for this expedition, some climbers have reached on its top even in summer.

In the itinerary of our Monterosa Treks and Expedition, the expedition starts from Kathmandu - Lukla flight; and approximately 11 days trekking on foot to Baruntse Base camp following the same route to return back to Kathmandu. The Base camp of Baruntse (5200m) is close in distance to Panch Pokhari. Mount Baruntse can also be ascended via Arun valley to Makalu Base camp.
