Visitors need an Inner Line Permit to reach the peak, and the journey begins with transport to Thanamir or other starting villages. The best time to climb is during drier months when conditions are safest.

The summit has a distinctive geological ranking as one of the highest points in the region with significant elevation prominence above surrounding areas. This distinction makes it well-known among geographers and climbing communities.
