Ganalo Peak, Mountain summit in Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan.

Ganalo Peak rises 6,608 meters above sea level, forming a prominent subsidiary peak of Nanga Parbat in the western Himalayas of Pakistan.

The first successful ascent of Ganalo Peak occurred on July 23, 1939, when mountaineers Hans Lobenhoffer and Ludwig Chicken reached its summit.

The remote village of Beyal, situated at the northern base of Ganalo Peak, maintains traditional mountain life practices passed through generations.

Climbers typically approach Ganalo Peak through Rakhiot Base Camp, requiring advanced mountaineering skills and proper acclimatization for high-altitude conditions.

The mountain provides exceptional views of neighboring Nanga Parbat while rising 9,000 feet above the Rakhiot Glacier and 8,000 feet above Rakhiot Base Camp.
