Lunpo Gangri

Lunpo Gangri, Mountain summit in Zhongba County, Xigazê, China

Lunpo Gangri is a mountain summit in the Gangdise range at 7,095 meters with a prominence of 1,941 meters. The peak displays steep rocky faces and snow-covered ridges shaped by glacial activity.

Lunpo Gangri was first climbed on 23 October 1996 by Cha Jin-Chol of China with You Seok-Jae and Bang Jung-il of Korea, via the northeast ridge. The mountain lies in Zhongba County, Xigazê, in the glaciated part of a range running northwest, within the Yarlung Tsangpo basin; the river flows 35 km south of the peak.

The mountain's Tibetan name, བློན་པོ་གངས་རི། (Loinbo Kangri), means "minister snow mountain", while Lunpo Gangri is the form used in Chinese sources. It stands in the Gangdise range, whose second-highest and best-known peak, Mount Kailash, is sacred to Hindus, Buddhists, Jains and Bon followers; pilgrims and herders in Zhongba County know the range by that wider religious geography.

Climbing here requires high-altitude experience, specialized mountaineering gear, and strong physical fitness. The climbing window is typically from May to September when weather conditions are most favorable.

This peak counts among Tibet's lesser-documented summits with minimal recorded ascent attempts in climbing archives. Such remoteness appeals to experienced mountaineers seeking less-traveled climbing routes.
