Expedition Overview

Nanga Parbat (8,125m), known as the “Killer Mountain,” rises dramatically as the western anchor of the Himalayas in Pakistan. Famous for its massive Rupal Face—the highest mountain face in the world—it is one of the most dangerous and technically challenging 8,000-meter peaks, offering extreme weather, steep rock-and-ice climbing, and a reputation built on legendary ascents and unmatched alpine beauty.
