Gurung Hill is a mountain near the Line of Actual Control between the Indian- and Chinese-administered portions of Ladakh near the village of Chushul and the Spanggur Lake.

[1] During the 1962 Sino-Indian War, a battle was fought at Gurung Hill, which resulted in a victory for the Chinese forces.

During the 1962 Sino-Indian War, pitched battles were fought along this range and, in the end, China's claim line was enforced.

The southern wing of the ridge which flanks the Spanggur gap has a few relatively flat sections, the lowest of which is referred to as the 'Camel's Back' [a] by the Indian Army.

In between the 'Bump' and the pass is the highest peak in the region, termed the Black Top by the Indian Army (Chinese: 黑頂; pinyin: Hēi dǐng),[3][e] at an elevation of 5,680 metres (18,640 ft).

[f] The recognised Line of Actual Control runs northeast from here to the middle of the Phursook Bay along a ridge termed 'Helmet'.

However, no physical clash was reported and the Indian Army repositioned its troops in the area as a precaution to prevent any future intrusion by the PLA.
