Nilgiri View from Jomsom
नीलगिरी हिमाल
Gazing up at the 7,061-meter Nilgiri from the town of Jomsom and its airport, when the snowy peak turns golden at dawn.
Nilgiri belongs to the Annapurna range, and its north peak rises to 7,061 meters directly across from the southern end of Jomsom. It is the most photographed snowy peak in Lower Mustang. The best viewpoints are along the airport runway, the observation tower in the new town, and the hillside path to Dhumba Lake. Within half an hour after sunrise, the snowy peak turns golden. You can also look back at it from the roads to Marpha and Kagbeni. Clouds often build in the afternoon, so go early for a clear view of the full mountain.
