Hindu Raj

The Hindu Raj is a mountain range in northern Pakistan, between the Hindu Kush and the Karakoram ranges. Its highest peak is Koyo Zom, 6,872 m (22,546 ft). Other notable peaks include Buni Zom[1] and Ghamubar Zom. The range is less well-known than its neighbors, partly because of the absence of any 8000 or 7000 meter peaks.

Notes

  1. Sources disagree on whether Buni Zom is in the Hindu Raj or the Hindu Kush.
