Gurans Himal

Encyclopedia : G : GU : GUR : Gurans Himal

The Gurans Himal is a small subrange of the Himalaya in far western Nepal. It is little-known, since it does not contain any 8000 metre peaks, or even any peaks above 7,200 metres. Its highest peak is Api, 7,132 m (23,399 ft), which, despite its relatively low height compared to the major Himalayan peaks, rises dramatically from a low base, as do the other significant peaks of the Gurans Himal.
