Bairiga

Bairiga is a mountain in Tibet Autonomous Region that reaches 6,882 meters in elevation. The peak features steep rocky walls on its northern and eastern sides, creating a dramatic high-altitude landscape.

Ruoni Peak, a secondary summit at 6,805 meters, was first documented to be reached in November 2009 when two students from China University of Geosciences arrived at the top. This ascent marked the first known successful climb of that particular section.

Local Tibetan communities maintain traditional practices of mountain reverence, considering the peak as part of their connection to natural landscapes.

Climbers need specialized high-altitude gear and must spend time acclimatizing to the thin air before attempting the peak. The best climbing window happens in October and November when brief weather windows make summit attempts possible.
