The peak stands at an elevation of 6,650 m (21,820 ft) above sea level.[3] Rising 5.6 kilometers to the northeast is the similarly towering Bechang Kangri. To the west, the primary crest of the Himalayas leads to Melunghi Kang, which reaches a height of 6,902 m (22,644 ft) and is situated approximately 22 kilometers away. Just under 23 kilometers to the north-northwest lies the mountain massif of Kula Kangri, towering at 7,538 m (24,731 ft). Extending along the southern slope of Chura Kang is the Chubda Glacier. This glacier terminates at the glacier-fed Chubda Tsho lake, which drains through the Mela Chhu and Bumthang Chhu rivers.
On the northeastern slope, the Bailang Glacier is positioned, providing sustenance to the glacier-fed Bailang Tso lake. Located on the northwestern side is the Angge Glacier. This glacier feeds into the Ngangge Glacier, culminating in the glacier-fed Ngangge Tso lake. The northern glaciers are emptied by the Xung Qu, a right tributary of the Lhobrak Chhu river. In recent years, the glaciers have been steadily retreating, while concurrently, the glacier-fed lakes have been expanding.[4][5]
