Some of the tallest and most beautiful mountains in the world may be found within the borders of Pakistan. The Himalayas, Karakoram, Hindu Kush, Sulaiman, Toba Kakar, Kirthar, and Salt range are a few of Pakistan's well-known mountain ranges.

Explanation:

• The Karakoram Range, a piece of the Himalayan mountain system, and the Hindu Kush mountains meet in the northern region of the nation.
• There are numerous peaks in these ranges, with elevations ranging from 6000 to 8611 metres.
• Pakistan boasts the highest density of high mountains in the world, with 101 peaks above 7,000 metres (23,300 feet) above sea level and five peaks over 8,000 metres (26,000 feet) in a 180-kilometer radius (112 miles).
• Pakistan is home to 13 of the world's 30 tallest peaks.
• The tallest include K2, the second-highest peak in the world and part of the Karakoram Range, at 8,611 metres (28,251 feet);
• The mountainous north of Pakistan includes parallel mountain ranges that are broken up by slender, deep river valleys.
• The mountain ranges generally run from east to west east of the Indus River.

• In the far north, the Karakoram Ranges rise to an average height of 6,100 m.

• To the west of the Karakoram Mountains, on the Pamir Plateau, the Hindu Kush Mountains cut off the western portion.
• These mountains bend to the south and soar to snow-capped heights.
• Some of the peaks reach extremely high elevations, such as Noshaq (7,369 m) and Tirich Mir (7,690 m).
