There are several interesting alternative descents, one down the northeast ridge of Black Peak via steep glacier terrain presenting a variety of objectionable hazards. This Trek provides a great opportunity for trekkers to see the scenic beauty and experience the life of remote villages of Himalayas and have glorious views of Ruinsara Range, Mt. Black Peak, Bandarpunch, and Swargarohini Peaks.

To reach the base camp, you traverse crystal clear lakes , huge boulders , snow peaks and bone-chilling wind.
