Nanga Parbat (main peak) has a height of 8126 meters/26,660 ft. It has three vast faces. The Raikot face is dominated by the north and south silver crags and silver plateau. The Diamir face is rocky in the beginning. It converts itself into ice fields around the higher end of the peak.
The Rupal face is the highest precipice in the world. Reinhold Messner, a living legend in mountaineering from Italy has said “everyone who has ever stood at the foot of this face (4500 meters) up above the ‘Tap Alpe’; studied it or flown over it, could not help but have been amazed by its sheer size. Nanga Parbat is indisputably the highest rock and ice wall in the world.
