Description

In the western Himalayan mountain Range of Pakistan, Nanga Parbat is one of the eight-thousanders (9th highest in the world), with a summit elevation of 8,126 metres (26,660 ft) above sea level.
An immense, dramatic peak rising far above its surrounding terrain, Nanga Parbat is also a notoriously difficult climb. Numerous mountaineering deaths in the mid and early 20th century lent it the nickname "killer mountain". Along with K2, it has never been climbed in winter.
