Mt. Kun
Nun's 7,077 m twin above the Suru valley
The trek
A serious 7,000 m mountaineering expedition to Mt. Kun, climbed from Shafat Nala in the Suru valley — a demanding introduction to technical high-altitude climbing.
Mt. Kun, at 7,077 m, is the slightly lower twin of Nun in the Nun-Kun massif of the Suru valley. Climbed from Shafat Nala, it is a serious technical expedition and a classic proving ground for climbers making the shift from 6,000 m peaks to true 7,000 m mountaineering. The route crosses glaciers and steep snow to a series of high camps before the long summit push.
Like its neighbour, Kun is a Leh-to-Leh expedition with acclimatisation in Leh, the drive into the Suru valley, a trek to base camp and a long, weather-dependent climbing phase with generous reserve days. It is meant for experienced climbers comfortable with crampons, ice-axe, fixed ropes and multi-day life at high altitude.
