Reo Purgyil , sometimes known as Leo Pargial [3] Leo Pargil ,[4] Zanskar Range in the Western Himalaya . It is located on the border between Himachal Pradesh , India and Tibet , China .[5]
At 6,816 m, Reo Purgyil is the highest mountain peak in the state of Himachal Pradesh and is located in Kinnaur district . Geologically the peak is a dome structure and is part of a great massif that rises above the Sutlej river and overlooks the western valleys of Tibet.[2] Spiti River , a right bank tributary of the Satluj, drains the northern face of the massif.[6]
The highest peak is often obscured by clouds and is located about 2 km to the south of Peak 6791, a well known slightly shorter twin with a height of 6,791 m.[7] [8] [9] Nako village is located on the slopes of the mountain, close to the India-Tibet border.
