Baruntse is one of the most attractive 7,000m peaks in Nepal. it's conjointly one in all the few peaks of this height with a high rate of success of ascent on the traditional route. The approach to the mountain follows the Mera Peak trek up to Mera La then to Baruntse base camp. (5,250m).

Normally, we tend to establish 2 camps higher than the base camp within the approach of the mountain. The camp I is about up just under East col. at associate degree altitude of 5,700m and also the camp II is on the South – East Ridge at a height of 6,420m. From the camp I, we tend to cross East col. and descend down through steep slopes. we tend to then traverse an outsized snow highland and move towards the underside of the South – East Ridge. we tend to then move through steep slopes of the ridge to al small mountain col, the positioning of the camp II at the peak of 6,420m.

From camp II, we ascend steep snow slopes (45 degrees) and often pass a series of short steep steps of ice and snow till we reach the side of the ridge. Then we tend to past through short sections of rock scrambling that ends up in a marked cleft and ice geological formation and obtaining over these leads to the straightforward and broader slopes and eventually, to 7,129m, the summit. By the same route we descent.
