Baruntse stands height of 7,129 m / 23,370ft and has become a landmark for a mountaineer who has the urge and drams to climb over a 7000 m high. Mt. Baruntse lies in between the lap of two Giants Mountains, Mt. Everest and
Mt. Makalu, surrounded by Hinku Glacier on the south, Barun Glacier on the east with Imja-tse Glacier to the North West.

The climb of Mt. Baruntse is less technically than other 7,000 m peaks but its high altitude is the major concern. Climb to Baruntse is an idle preparation before joining above 8,000 m expeditions. Mt. Baruntse first climbed by Colin Todd and Geoff Harrow of New Zealand expedition team led by Sir Edmund Hillary in 30th May, 1954 via southern ridge. Since then many climbers have used this same route and have successfully summated Mt. Baruntse. This adventurous expedition starts from Kathmandu with a short sweeping scenic flight to Lukla; from here the trek to the Baruntse Base Camp 5,300 m (17,380 ft) begins via Chutok, Tangnag and Khare.

 After a good acclimatization at base camp start the climb to Mt. Baruntse summit.
This expeditions leads to establish two more camps beside base camp, Camp I at 6,100 m / 20,000 ft and Camp II at 6, 400m / 20,980 ft to conquer Mt. Baruntse summit. Before reaching at Baruntse for the climb, our program leads to climb Mera Peak at 6,560 meters the highest trekking in Nepal this will allow the climbers to practice with ice axe, crampons and to acclimatize well before the big climb to the summit of Mt. Baruntse.
