Passu Sar Peak Expedition
(7284M)

Passu Sar Peak Expedition Overview

Passu Sar is a prominent mountain located in the Batura Muztagh, a subrange of the Karakoram in the Hunza District of Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan. It represents the highest point of the Passu massif, which also includes peaks such as Passu Diar (also referred to as Passu East or Pasu II). The mountain is situated along the main ridge of the Batura Muztagh, approximately 7 kilometers (4 miles) to the east of Batura Sar. There is some uncertainty regarding the date of the first successful ascent of Passu Sar. One account attributes the first climb to a German team—Max Wallner, Dirk Naumann, Ralf Lehmann, and Volker Wurnig—on August 7, 1994. However, an alternative report suggests that a Japanese-Pakistani expedition may have summited the peak as early as 1978.
