Rolwaling Himal, Janakpur
Ramdung stands at a height of
5,925 meters. It is situated
south of Na in the upper
Rolwaling region and is one of a
cluster of peaks surrounding
Yalung La. It provides an access
to upper Rolwaling from the
south via the Khare Khola. A
team led by Bill Murray first
climbed the peak in 1952; it
proved to be an ideal summit for
commercial trekking and climbing
groups before closure of the
Rolwaling. The normal route to
this mountain, through the
glaciers of North-East Flank, is
straightforward. The mountain
offers a panoramic view of
mountain ranges from Langtang to
Everest and also a splendid view
of Gauri Shankar and Menlungtse. |
