Baruntse Expedition

The Baruntse Expedition is an exciting climb to Baruntse (7,129 meters), a breathtaking peak in Nepal's Khumbu region that lies between Makalu and Everest. The trip, which takes three to four weeks on average and is renowned for its stunning, secluded setting, requires climbers to cross difficult terrain and high-altitude conditions. For those looking to explore less-traveled paths in the Everest region, the climb is a worthwhile experience because it provides spectacular vistas of the surrounding Himalayas.
