Distaghil Sar is one of the major peaks in the
Karakoram Range. Situated at an elevation of 7,885 m above sea level, it is the third highest mountain in the Karakoram. It lies in a remote icy wilderness, in the northern reaches touching the borders of India and Pakistan. Three sharp peaks crown its glacier-clad summit ridge.
The best time for climbing is from July to September.
