Dataset contains 40 data items (see table below).

Overview

There are at least 40 mountains on Earth with elevations between 7,500 metres and 8,000 metres in height. The vast majority of these mountains are located on the edge of the Indian and Eurasian continental plates.

While these behemoths do not boast the fame of the tallest mountain or an esteemed member of the "eight-thousanders", they are no less challenging and certainly no walkovers, with recorded failed attempts in the hundreds for this group of mountains.

The highest mountain in this group is Gyachung Kang (7,952m), a mountain in the Mahalangur Himal section of the Himalaya, and is the highest peak between Cho Oyu (8,201 m) and Mount Everest (8,848 m).
