It is situated between Bilchar Dobani and Haramosh Peak, in the Gilgit-Baltistan region.

Malubiting is situated at the core of the Haramosh Group of Mountains, which tower over the northern bank of the Indus River.

It is located approximately 50 km to the east of Gilgit, the principal town in the area.

To the southwest, Malubiting ascends sharply above the Haramosh Jutial village along the banks of the Phuparash River, and to the east, the extensive Chogo Lungma Glacier originates from its slopes.

According to the Himalayan Index, there has been only one additional ascent, by a Swiss-German team in 1997, via the original route.
