Some approaches are also made from Parkachik (90 kms south of Kargil) along the Parkachik glacier. The approach from Guimatongo involves crossing the Suru River which has to be forded in the absence of a bridge; a foot-bridge is likely to be launched here soon. The base camp can be reached after a day's trek, both from Guimatongo and Tangol.
Other known peaks in the massif are Pinnacle (6930 m), White-Needle (6500 m), Z-1 (6400 m) and D-41 (5600 m). In addition there are many unnamed peaks in the altitude range of 5500 m to 6509 m in the same area.
Adjacent to the Nun-Kun massif is the `Bobank Peak (5971 m) which is also frequented by foreign climbing expeditions. It is approached via the Chelong Valley westward of Pankhar.
The Zanskar Group:
T massif lies adjacent to the Nun-Kun massif. Most frequented area in this group is along the Drung-Drung Glacier below Penzi-La, on the Kargil-Zanskar road head. The best known peaks in the group are Z-2 (6175m), Z-3 (6270m) and Z-8 (6050m). In addition there are many unnamed peaks in the area in the altitude range of 5000m to 6000m.
The climbing period in the region extends from early June to mid October, the main climbing period being June-August when most of the Himalayas remain inaccessible due to the monsoon elsewhere, while the ladakh Himalayas remain un affected. Every foreign mountineering expedition has to obtain permission in writing from the Govt. of India through the Indian Mountaineering Foundation. A booking fee depending upon the height of the peak is charged and a Liaison Officer is provided with each climbing team.
