Kun & Nun
Altitude 7135m, Duration 28 days, Grade 3C (grades)
Climb Kun or extend and climb both Kun and Nun
Background
Kun and Nun were first offered as an expedition by Adventure Peaks in 2006. The twin peaks of Kun and Nun are located in the rugged and forbidding landscape of Zanskar in northern India and are the biggest in the region. These two towering peaks and their satellites; Barmal, White Needle and Pinnacle Peak form a horseshoe above the Suru river on the boarder of Kashmir and Zanskar. The route to Base Camp at the head of the Shafat glacier is at 4400m and accessible in a matter of days. The ascent is a moderate snow and ice route suitable for those with previous climbing experience of Scottish 2/3 or Alpine AD. The basic trip is to climb Kun however you can extend by 12 days to make the double ascent and climb the slightly more difficult Nun (Graded 4C) whilst acclimatized.
