Description

Batura Sar, or Batura I (7,795 m), is the highest peak of the Batura Muztagh in Pakistan’s Karakoram. Wikidata places it at 36.51° N, 74.5225° E. The Göppingen team made the first ascent in 1976 from the Baltar side. Edi Koblmüller’s firsthand account describes an Austrian new route in 1983 approached from Aliabad across the Muchiohul Glacier. Filmmaker Oswald Rodrigo Pereira’s account of the 2020 winter expedition records a high point of 6,600 m before snowfall and avalanche danger ended the attempt. The Batura Glacier trek provides a regional experience separate from the technical summit expedition.

Routes

Jalur Austria 1983 via Muchiohul — catatan historis puncak

Alpinisme ekspedisi; dua undakan curam dan bivak tinggi

Koblmüller describes a four-day approach from Aliabad across the Muchiohul Glacier to Batura’s southern foot. The team established three camps, fixed rope on two steps and reached the summit on 25 June 1983. This documents a historical line left of the 1976 route, not navigation instructions or confirmation of present-day access.

Great Karakoram Expeditions’ itinerary leaves Passu for Yunzbin, Yashpirt, Kukhil and Guchism, followed by a Lupdor excursion and a return via Putmahal and Yashpirt. Days 4–10 are allocated to trekking. This visits the glacier and pastures with Batura Wall views; it does not ascend Batura Sar.

Climbing Experiences

Batura experiences include technical climbing and glacier exploration. The Austrian 1983 report records a summit success; the 2020 account describes an abandoned winter attempt. Trekking films and the exploration report cover the Batura Glacier area rather than the summit route. The accident report illustrates serious descent hazards.
