Namcha Barwa was first accurately located in 1912 by nation surveyors. The area saw little activity by outsiders between 1913 and the 1980s. In the 1980s, individual Asiatic teams prefabricated serious efforts on the peak, and scouted multiple routes, but did not succeed in reaching the summit.

In 1990 a joint Japanese-Chinese expedition reconnoitered the peak,and added joint expedition prefabricated an endeavor in 1991, which reached 7460m but resulted in the death of one member, Hiroshi Onishi, in an avalanche. The following year, a ordinal Japanese-Chinese expedition succeeded in reaching the summit. They established Base Camp on September 14, and reached the meeting on Oct 30, after placing sextet camps. Their route followed the South Ridge, over the grey Naipun Peak. Eleven members of the expedition reached the summit, all but the expedition co-leader, Tsuneo Shigehiro.

The Himalayan Index lists no other ascents of this peak.
