Baruntse
a spectacular and straightforward 7000m peak
Background
Baruntse provides a good progression and an ideal objective for
those who have previously climbed to around 6000m. Situated close
to Makalu it is remote and at the centre of three glacier valleys,
the Imja, the Hunku and Barun. It is objectively safe and offers
a tremendously rewarding climb among the world’s highest
peaks. Summit day includes spectacular views of Lhotse, Everest
and Makalu.
The expedition will approach Baruntse via Lukla, the Mera La and
Hinku valley as if going to Mera Peak, we would exit via the Ambulapcha
Pass past Island Peak and then down the main Everest trail.
Level
of support
The team will be led by an experienced Adventure
Peaks Leader. We have established a good infrastructure and employ
a regular and strong team of loyal Sherpa staff. They are supported
by an equally professional team of cooks, with excellent facilities
and hygiene, creating Base Camp facilities that are very comfortable,
allowing you to relax and build up strength before ascending higher.
