Ramdung (5,925m \/ 19,439 ft), also known as Ramdung Go, is a trekking peak in the Rolwaling region of north-east Nepal, located in the remote Rolwaling valley west of the Khumbu. The peak lies at approximately 27 degrees 45 minutes north latitude and 86 degrees 23 minutes east longitude, in the Gaurishankar Conservation Area. Ramdung was first climbed in the 1950s by a Scottish expedition. The Nepal Mountaineering Association classifies it as a Group B trekking peak.\n\nThe standard route climbs the north-east ridge, with Base Camp at approximately 4,500m in the Rolwaling valley and a High Camp at around 5,200m. The summit push involves climbing a glacier and 40-50 degree snow and ice slopes on the upper mountain, with some short vertical steps that require fixed ropes. The technical difficulty is rated PD+ on the Alpine grading system, similar to Island Peak. Climbers should have basic mountaineering experience or attend the training day at Base Camp.\n\nRamdung is located in one of the most remote and least-trekked valleys in Nepal, offering a true wilderness climbing experience. The Rolwaling valley is flanked by Gaurishankar (7,134m) to the south and Menlungtse (7,181m) to the north, with the famous Tashi Lapcha Pass (5,755m) connecting Rolwaling to the Khumbu. The summit rewards climbers with views of Gaurishankar, Menlungtse, the entire Rolwaling range, and distant views of Everest, Lhotse, and Makalu to the east.\n\nThe approach follows the Rolwaling valley from Charikot through Simigaun, Daldung La, and alimentation<\/a> to the village of Na, with acclimatization days at Beding (3,690m) and Na (4,180m). The region is culturally Tibetan Buddhist Sherpa and Tamang homeland, with traditional villages, ancient gompas at Beding and Na, and the famous Beding Monastery. The best climbing seasons are spring (April-May) and autumn (October-November). The Rolwaling valley is one of Nepal least-visited trekking areas, with authentic Sherpa culture and dramatic mountain scenery.<\/p>\n","cost_includes":"All airport pickups and drops in private vehicle\nKathmandu hotel (3 nights, B&B) with welcome and farewell dinners\nDomestic flights where applicable to itinerary\nAll ground transport in private vehicle\nAll necessary permits (TIMS, National Park, Conservation Area, Restricted Area where applicable)\nThree meals daily (BLD) during the trek with tea\/coffee\nTea house or camping accommodation during the trek\nExperienced English-speaking trekking guide and assistant guide for groups of 6+\nPorters (1 per 2 trekkers, 15kg luggage allowance) with full insurance\nSleeping bag, down jacket, and duffel bag (refundable deposit)\nFirst-aid kit, pulse oximeter, and emergency oxygen\nSatellite phone for emergency communications\nAll government and local taxes\nNMA Peak Permit fee\nClimbing guide (Sherpa, NNMGA-certified)\nClimbing equipment (crampons, ice axe, harness, helmet, ropes, carabiners)\nHigh camp tents and cooking equipment\nFixed ropes on summit day\nEmergency oxygen at base camp\nSatellite phone for emergency communication","cost_excludes":"International airfare to and from Kathmandu\nNepal visa fee (USD 30 for 15 days, USD 50 for 30 days)\nTravel and high-altitude rescue insurance (mandatory)\nPersonal trekking gear and clothing\nHot showers, Wi-Fi, device charging, and alcoholic beverages\nLunch and dinner in Kathmandu\nTips for guide, porter, and driver (recommended 10-15% of trip cost)\nCosts from unforeseen events (weather, flight delays, route changes)","itineraries":[{"title":"Arriv\u00e9e \u00e0 Katmandou","content":"\n
