Nanga Parbat, Mountain peak in Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan.
Nanga Parbat rises 8,126 meters above sea level, featuring the Rupal face that extends 4,600 meters from its base to the summit.
Hermann Buhl achieved the first successful climb to the summit in 1953, completing the final ascent alone without supplemental oxygen.
The name translates to Naked Mountain, while local inhabitants refer to it as Diamir, meaning king of mountains in their regional dialect.
The mountain permits climbing expeditions between June and August when weather conditions provide the most suitable circumstances for reaching higher altitudes.
The mountain stands independently from the Karakoram range, separated by the Indus River, creating a pronounced geographical isolation in the region.
