Peaks by country on an interactive map — Environment.
The world's highest peaks — a points layer, 35 peaks in total (top 5 per continent, Antarctica included).
SRTM and reference geographic sources.
Point size encodes elevation; a terrain hillshade (Terrarium DEM) activates beneath the markers.
Everest (8,849 m) dwarfs the whole world ranking, but every continent has its own giant: Aconcagua (6,961 m) in South America, Denali (6,190 m) in North America, Kilimanjaro (5,895 m), Africa's isolated high point rising from plains near sea level, and the Vinson Massif (4,892 m), Antarctica's high point, virtually unknown to the general public despite an altitude comparable to Mont Blanc's.
