Description

Ramdung in the Rolwaling Himal is most of the time used as a warm-up peak for the 6000-ers in Rolwaling. The normal-route is climbed via the North Glacier and North Ridge. The ascent of this peak requires no more than simple snow walking. The route is not steep but quite long though. Ramdung offers an excellent view of Everest, Melungtse, Gaurishankar and numerous other peaks.

Thanks to Frank Verwys for this description.
