NANGA PARBAT EXPEDITION (8126 M)

Nanga Parbat: Known as the Killer Mountain

Put your passion to the test on the Naked Mountain. Nanga Parbat, also known as the "Killer Mountain," has a long history of unsuccessful climbing attempts and disasters, which is how it earned its ominous nickname. It stands tall at 8,126 meters above sea level in the Himalayas, located in the Diamer District of Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan. Historical accounts suggest that Nanga Parbat emerged as a result of the collision between the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates.

Nanga Parbat has three massive faces:

1. The Rakhiot Face, which overlooks the gray cliffs and highlands to the north and south.
2. The Diamer Face, which starts off rock-strewn but transforms into ice fields as you approach the peak.
3. The Rupal Face, which boasts the highest cliff in the world.

Nanga Parbat is one of the most coveted prizes for mountaineers. Climbing this "Killer Mountain" in the icy grip of the Himalayan twilight may seem like madness, but the world’s best mountaineers can’t resist putting their passion to the test. Much like Mount K2, Nanga Parbat represents the ultimate challenge for expert climbers.

Climb Nanga Parbat with Adventure Trips Advisor. Winding through the curvature of the Himalayas, attempting to climb the Naked Mountain is one of the hardest challenges in the world.
