There are many steep mountain peaks in the world, their unique scenery attracts many people to climb, but because of the difficulty of climbing, there are many dangers. Next, let's take a look at what are the most dangerous mountains in the world.


1. Mount Eiger



The Eiger is located in the Swiss Alps at an altitude of 3,970 meters. It was first climbed to the top in 1858. However, until July 24, 1938, no one had been able to climb to the top of the mountain from the most thrilling part of the mountain, the north slope. Since 1935, more than 64 people have died as a result of climbing from the North Slope. It is extremely difficult to climb the mountain due to the constant rolling of rocks from the mountain.


2. Annapurna



Annapurna is the tenth highest peak in the world at 8091 meters above sea level. Few people lost their lives conquering it, but only 157 people managed to reach the summit. Annapurna was first climbed in 1950 and was first summited by the most difficult south slope in 1970. Then in 1987, two Poles set the record for the first winter ascent of Annapurna.


3. K2 Peak



K2 is known as "the second highest peak in the world", and its death rate ranks second out of 14 "8000 meters". Unlike Annapurna, K2 has never been climbed in winter. And almost a quarter of those who reached the summit died. Severe weather is especially common near the summit, with storms sometimes lingering for days. K2 is also known as the "Rage Mountain".


4. Mont Blanc



Mont Blanc is the highest mountain in Western Europe, located on the border between France and Italy. It may not be as thrilling as the Himalayas, but many people have lost their lives trying to conquer it, mostly hikers or climbers. Mont Blanc has a number of fault blocks from other smaller peaks that have claimed nearly 8,000 lives.
