Yunam Peak Expedition – 6,111 m

The Yunam Peak Expedition is a 7-night, 8-day high-altitude mountaineering expedition starting and ending in Manali, Himachal Pradesh. The expedition reaches a maximum altitude of 6,111 metres and combines acclimatization, technical preparation, summit training and a guided summit attempt.

The journey begins in Manali with an expedition briefing, equipment check and acclimatization walk before moving towards Solang Valley and higher camps. The route continues through Patsio to Bharatpur Base Camp, where participants undertake further acclimatization and prepare for the climb.

A load ferry to Summit Camp helps participants become familiar with the higher section of the route. After returning to Base Camp for rest, the expedition moves again to Summit Camp for the final summit preparation.

The summit attempt begins during the night, with the team climbing towards the 6,111 m Yunam Peak summit. The summit is attempted only when weather, snow, route conditions and the expedition leader's safety assessment allow it. After the summit attempt, the team descends to Base Camp for rest and recovery.

Day 7 is kept as a buffer day in case the summit attempt is affected by strong winds, snowfall, poor weather, route conditions or schedule delays. If the summit is completed on Day 6, the day can be used as a rest or operational reserve day.

Yunam Peak is a serious high-altitude mountaineering expedition. The itinerary may be changed whenever required for participant safety.
