Bogda Peak, Summit in Xinjiang, China

Bogda Peak rises to 5445 meters in the eastern Tian Shan mountains, featuring steep slopes between 70 and 80 degrees across its elevation.

A Japanese mountaineering team from Kyoto achieved the first recorded ascent of Bogda Peak in 1981, marking a significant milestone in its climbing history.

The mountain serves as a central element for local communities in Urumqi, who perform annual spring ceremonies at Red Hill for safety and prosperity.

Climbers can start their expeditions from Dongshan Mountain or Jiangjun Gorge in Fukang County, requiring proper permits and mountaineering equipment.

This peak holds the distinction of being the northernmost mountain in Eurasia exceeding 5000 meters in height, with a prominence of 4122 meters.
