History edit

It is the part of Himalayan mountain massif that divides Lassar-Darma valley and Ralam-Gori Ganga valley. Its summit reaches an altitude of 6,410 metres (21,030 ft) above sea level.

South of the peak are the five peaks of Panchachuli. Sona and Meola glaciers (that together form the Panchchuli Glacier) are to the east of Nagalaphu. To the peak's west is the large Uttari Balati glacier.

Nagalaphu has yet to be scaled.
