22 de feb. de 2024 · Dhaulagiri, at 8,167 meters (26,795 feet), is the seventh-highest mountain globally, casting its majestic presence over the breathtaking landscapes of Nepal. The Sanskrit name “Dhaulagiri” translates to “White Mountain” and reflects the mountain's snow-covered appearance.
Despite deriving its name from Dhaulagiri I, which stands alone immediately due east of 5,355m French Pass, the rest of the Dhaulagiri Himal is a fully independent massif in its own right. The next-highest summit, Dhaulagiri II , is the 30th-highest mountain on Earth.
