Tourist Attraction
Jorkanden
Jorkanden is the highest peak in the Kinner Kailash Range of the Greater Himalayas, standing at an impressive 6,473 meters (21,237 feet). It is located in the Kinnaur district of Himachal Pradesh and is known for its stunning views and challenging trekking routes1.
The peak was first climbed on May 26, 1974, by an expedition team of the Indo-Tibetan Border Police. Jorkanden is often confused with the nearby Kinnaur Kailash peak, which is slightly lower at 6,050 meters (19,850 feet) and is distinguished by its distinctly pointed "pillar" on top, worshipped as a shivling.
