==Mountaineering==
The Nun Kun massif was first sighted in 1898 and three visits by Arthur Neve, in 1902, 1904, and 1910. In 1903, Dutch mountaineer Dr. H. Sillem investigated the massif and discovered the high plateau between the peaks; he reached an altitude of 6,400 m (21,000 ft) on Nun. In 1906, the Pinnacle Peak was first ascended by a noted explorer couple Fanny Bullock Workman and her husband William Hunter Workman.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Fanny Bullock Workman )〕 They also toured extensively through the massif and produced a map; however, controversy surrounded the Workmans' claims, and few trigonometrical points were given for the region, so that the map they produced was not usable.〔''High Asia: An Illustrated History of the 7000 Metre Peaks'' by Jill Neate, ISBN 0-89886-238-8〕 The Kun Peak was first successfully climbed by an Italian mountainering team led by Mario Piacenza, Lorenzo Borelli in 1913.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Mountain climbing )〕
The massif is accessed by 210 kilometers by road from Srinagar NH 1D up to Kargil and then 80 kilometers via Kargil Zanskar road.
