Kangto, Mountain summit in Eastern Himalayas, Arunachal Pradesh, India.

Kangto rises to an elevation of 7,090 meters, forming a prominent peak within the Assam Himalaya range near the Tibet Autonomous Region border.

The Indo-Tibetan Border Police and Indian Mountaineering Foundation established their first successful base camp at 9,920 feet along Pachuk river in 2017.

The mountain plays a central role in the traditions of local communities, connecting to the water systems through its position as the source of Pachuk river.

Reaching the mountain requires special permits from authorities due to its location in a restricted border area of Arunachal Pradesh state.

The mountain ranks as the highest point in Arunachal Pradesh and holds position 62 among 936 peaks documented in the Tibetan region.
