1.What is the highest Mountain of the Himalayas? Beyond the name of the summit, chose a picture of
it and describe as many geographical features as possible.
The highest mountain in the Himalayas Mountain range (and the world) is Mount Everest and its peak
is considered the highest point on Earth. It has a height of 8848 meters above sea level. The mountain
is characterised by its extreme altitude, severe weather conditions and challenging terrain (which is
covered with glaciers and snow), making it a real challenge to climb. It is surrounded by high peaks,
glaciers, deep valleys and ridges. It is located on the border between Nepal and the Tibet Autonomous
Region of China.
