Unterrothorn directissima is a point-to-point ascent that climbs from the town of Zermatt to the summit of Unterrothorn (3,109 m): to mix units of measurement, about 5,000 ft of rise over 6,000 m of run on singletrack trail*. To maximize your climb, start at the bubbling glacial waters of the Matter Vispa, at the Sunneggastrasse bridge. The route may be broken into three main sections:

Yunam Peak at 6111 meters above sea level is a stunning peak located in the Lahaul district of Himachal Pradesh near the famous Baralacha La Pass. The summit offers fantastic views of the Chandra Bhaga Range and the Mulkilla Range with views stretching as far as Zanskar. The path to Yunam Peak is difficult and is meant for experienced trekkers only due to the high altitude gain and bone-chilling winds as you make your way up to the summit across moraines and scree. July to September are the best months to climb here.
