Annapurna III, Mountain peak in Gandaki Province, Nepal
Annapurna III rises to an elevation of 7,555 meters, forming part of the Annapurna massif between the Kali Gandak and Marsyandi rivers.
The first successful climb of Annapurna III occurred on May 6, 1961, when an Indian expedition team led by Captain Mohan Singh Kohli reached the summit.
The mountain's name derives from Sanskrit, referring to the Hindu goddess of food and nourishment who provides sustenance to the surrounding valleys.
The southeast ridge presents technical climbing challenges with a vertical face spanning approximately 2,800 meters and demanding winter conditions.
Ukrainian mountaineers Balabanov, Polezhayko, and Fomin completed the first ascent of the southeast ridge in November 2021 after numerous failed attempts.
