Ramdung Peak Climbing Overview
Ramdung Peak lies at the height of 5930m, in border of Khumbu and upper Rolwaling valley in Eastern Nepal. The peak, also known as Ramdung Go, is tough and technical to climb. Ramdung Peak Climbing offers beautiful view of lush forest, hills, cultural villages of Sherpa, mesmerizing panorama of Himalayan ranges from Mount Everest to Langtang. Mount Gaurishankar and Melungtse being the most incredible one.
Ramdung Peak’s ascent comprises steep climbs and high elevations, requiring high climbing expertise and good physical fitness. A challenging trek over a jagged ridge, steep ice and snow slopes are part of the usual route to the summit. Because the summit is less well-known than other mountains, climbers should anticipate a more isolated and lonesome experience.
This trip also has uncountable attractions like Tashi Laptsa Pass, the hidden valley of Rolwaling, Na village, Yalung La, Yalung glaciers and many others. Bill Murray first climbed this peak in 1952, and since then, Ramdung peak has been gaining its popularity for trekking. Ramdung Peak climbing is a challenging and remote trek requiring proper planning and execution.
Our experienced climbers carefully plan the climbing schedule to ensure a steady rate of ascent and enough acclimatization. We will have porters to carry supplies, a dining tent, a sleeping tent, and other amenities for your comfort on the camping trek on Ramdung Peak Climbing. The Marvel Treks chef will prepare delicious dinners, and the camp will be a comfortable setting for sharing stories about the day’s highlights.

Trip Map
Best Season to Visit
The temperature in spring, summer and autumn is quite warmer than winter. After the monsoon rain has washed away all the pollutions, you can see clear atmosphere in spring, (March to May) and Autumn (September to November).
December-February is also possible and offers you beautiful views of Rhododendrons forest and views of mountains. Monsoon season (July and August) also known as summer receives lot of rainfall and the trails are slippery and muddy which increases the risk.
Safety/Fitness
Ramdung peak climbing is certainly among the difficult one. However it depends on which route you take and how long it is. You have to walk and climb up and down trails for 6-7 hours daily.
It is mandatory to have high level of fitness so that you can enjoy your journey without any difficulties. You need to practice light exercise, running, jogging and build your muscle strength before your journey starts. This place is one of the remote area of Nepal and the roads are steep and difficult.
The maximum height in this trek is 5930m, which increases the risk of altitude sickness. You have to stay hydrated throughout your journey, eat nutritional food, and check your oxygen level occasionally and walk slowly so that you can adjust with increasing heights. If you ever feel any symptoms of altitude sickness like nausea, increased heart rates, breathing difficulties etc. you need to talk to your guide, your friends or anyone near
Other requirements
Insurance
Travel Insurance is kind of a mandatory thing before traveling anywhere. You can always purchase your own travel insurance from your travel agencies. It usually cost around 150$(15000 NRS) and is good for 30 days.
You need to give them complete details about the places and altitudes you will be reaching because your insurance depends on details you have given earlier.
Nepal visas/passports
Foreigners other than Indians need to have valid visas and passports prior to visiting Nepal. The passport must hold minimum 6 months of visa validity from their date of arrival. They can have the Nepalese visa at Kathmandu Tribhuwan International Airport.
