Mount Yunam
Mount Yunam lies parallel to the Baralacha Pass, surrounding the Ladakh border in Himachal Pradesh. The Baralacha Pass acts as a doorway to Sarchu, which intersects Himachal and J & K. Trekking in Himachal Pradesh has become one of those exotic activities that everyone does once in a lifetime. The base camp is located in Bharatpur, just a few kilometers from the Baralacha Pass on the Manali-Leh route. After maneuvering through snow and scree, Mount Yunam Peak stands at an elevation of 6110 meters.
Mount Yunam Peak is one of the few that can be compared to Stok Kangri, even though Yunam is not well-known and only a few individuals who have traveled the Manali-Leh highway are aware of it. Yunam peak trek is challenging for the faint of heart; prior expertise climbing at elevations of 5000 meters or higher is essential.
