The killer mountain as Nanga Parbat is called is the 9th highest peak in the world. The peak is 8,125 metres in height and is one of the most challenging mountains in the world to climb. Though associated with tragedies, it is not that the peak has not been scaled. Many mountaineers lost their life on way to the summit at Nanga Parbat. It was in 1953 that the Nanga Parbat was conquered by Herman Buhl.
Situated in the Himalayan Range, Nanga Parbat means naked mountain. You can take Rupal Face Trek or Fairy Meadows Trek to reach the base camp of the Nanga Parbat. Rupal Face Trek leads to the base camp of the mountain from the southern side while Fairy Meadows takes you the base camp from the northern side.
