About

Momhil Sar (Urdu: مومہل سر) is, at 7,414 metres (24,324 ft) above sea level, the 64th highest mountain peak in the world. It is situated in Shimshal Valley, the Hispar Muztagh subrange of the Karakoram range, a few kilometres to the north-west of its parent peak Trivor in Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan.

A group from the Styrian High-touring Section of the Austrian Alpine Association, led by Hanns Schell, made the first ascent on June 29, 1964. Initially they attempted to climb the southeast ridge but were unsuccessful so a few days later they returned to Camp 3 and crossed the southeast wall of Momhil Sar, Rudolf Pischinger, Hanns Schell, Horst Schindelbacher, Leo Schlömmer and Rudolf Widerhofer then reached the summit via the south ridge.
