Mountain climbing has become a popular hobby for many people. The summit of a mountain offers breathtaking panoramas for climbers.

However, not all mountains are easily climbed. On certain mountains, climbers must even navigate steep and extremely dangerous trails.

According to mensjournal.com, these are four of the most dangerous mountains in the world to climb:

1. Annapurna (Nepal) - fatality rate: 32%
2. K2 (Pakistan) - fatality rate: 25%
3. Nanga Parbat (Pakistan) - fatality rate: 22%
4. Kangchenjunga (Nepal/India) - fatality rate: 20%

Annapurna in Nepal is one of the most difficult and dangerous mountains in the world to climb. It has an altitude of 8,091 meters above sea level, with challenging terrain, unpredictable weather, and a lack of emergency assistance.

Landslides are also frequent on this mountain, making it impossible for climbers to predict a safe time to climb. If a landslide occurs, there will be no rescue team on Annapurna.
