Reo Purgyil, sometimes known as Leo Pargial[3] and Leo Pargil,[4] is a mountain peak at the southern end of the Zanskar Range in the Western Himalaya. It is located the border between Himachal Pradesh, India and Tibet.[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] The Spiti River, a right hand 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] Peak 6791 is widely referred to as Leo Pargial and has sufficient topographic prominence to be classified as a mountain in its own right.[8][9] Nako village is located on the slopes of the mountain, close to the India-Tibet border.
