At 7426m, Putha Himchuli is the westernmost peak in the cornerstone of Dhaulagiri range and the preceding of glaciated peaks at the far west reaches of this range. Set in extraordinarily vivid backdrop to the west of Annapurna and South of Ganesh Himal, Putha Himchuli stands in a chain of the world's most imposing peaks of individual splendor of Dhaulagiri Range.
