Baruntse Expedition is an adventure for climbers who wishing to summit over 7000 meters peak located heart of khumbu Himalayan range. Baruntse ridge is surrounded by some of the most famous peaks of the world Mt. Everest, Mt. Lhotse, Mt. Makalu, Mt. Ama Dablam and at the far northern end is The Hinku Valley one of the most wild valley of Nepal. The approach to the mountain pursues the Mera Peak trek up to the Mera La and Baruntse Base Camp (5,250m). Its route is not technically demanding and basically an effortless climbing on snow and ice with some section of over hangings. Generally, there are two camps above the Base Camp of Baruntse climbing. These two camps such as camp I (5,700m) is set up just below East Col & camp II (6,420m) on the southeast ridge. Mainly three camps are set in the approach above the base camp for climbing. Our usual way is classic South-East ridge for climbing. The summit from Pumori offers superb panoramic views of snowy mountains which will be a great perception for mountaineers. It would become the most satisfying challenge in the Himalayan and provides other side of beautiful view of Lhotse, Nuptse and Everest.

Baruntse was first ascended by Colin Todd and Geoff Harrow by South-East ridge in year 1954. Baruntse Base Camp is located very near to Panch Pokhari at the height of 5200m. The mountain can be reached about 11 days trekking from Lukla by crossing the beautiful mountain pass Mera-La (5678m) and wildest Hinku valley.
