Nanda Khat

Nanda Khat, Mountain summit in Bageshwar district, India.

Nanda Khat is a mountain summit in the Kumaun Himalaya region, standing at approximately 6,600 meters elevation. Glaciers dominate the eastern side, while steep slopes and shifting snowfields characterize the terrain.

Hugh Ruttledge reached the summit in 1931 with PN Choudhary and the porter Pansingh, the first recorded ascent. Anup Sah of Nainital led the next documented ascent on 16 October 1972. In 2010 an Indian Mountaineering Foundation team of seven men and five women, led by Dr Anil Ghurtoo, opened a new route via the eastern spur and north ridge.

The name Nanda Khat translates as "Bed of Nandadevi", linking the peak to the goddess Nanda Devi, whose 7,816 m summit stands to its north. The mountain sits at the rim of the Nandadevi Sanctuary in Bageshwar district, Uttarakhand.

The route requires mountaineering experience at high elevation and specialized equipment such as ice axes and crampons. Visitors should prepare for variable weather, thin air, and extended acclimatization periods.

On 22 June 2010, four members of a 12-person Indian Mountaineering Foundation team led by Dr Anil Ghurtoo reached the summit at 15:45 via a new route on the eastern spur and north ridge. The climb up and back down to summit camp took them almost 22 hours.
