Nanda Khat, Mountain summit in Bageshwar district, India.

Nanda Khat rises to 6,611 meters in elevation, featuring steep slopes and glacier terrain within the Kumaun Himalaya mountain range.

The first documented climb of Nanda Khat occurred in 1931 when Hugh Ruttledge, PN Choudhary, and porter Pansingh reached the summit.

The mountain holds traditional significance within the Nanda Devi National Park region, integrating with local religious beliefs and mountain worship practices.

Mountaineers attempting Nanda Khat need extensive high-altitude experience and proper equipment to navigate the challenging icefalls and glacial sections.

A twelve-member expedition team in 2010 established a new climbing route to the summit, completing the ascent and descent in twenty-two hours.
