Bairiga () or Ruoni () (6,882 m) is the highest peak of Kangri Garpo Range of southeast Tibet Autonomous Region.

== History == The region has only recently been explored, and before 2009 none of its 47 peaks above 6,000 m had been climbed. Bairiga / Ruoni, which remains unclimbed itself, was photographed for the first time in 1933 by the botanist explorer Frank Kingdon-Ward, at which time it was known as Choembo.
