Так распорядилась природа, что наивысшие вершины мира расположились в величайшей горной системе земного шара, завораживающей и неприступной — Гималайских горах. Эти горы являются самыми молодыми в мире и поэтому, наверное, самыми чарующими, высокими и наименее исследованными. СРЕДНЯЯ ВЫСОТА в Альпах ДОСТИГАЕТ 3500 м, В КАВКАЗСКИХ ГОРАХ 4500 м, Кордильерах и Андах около 5700 м, а в Гималаях большое количество вершин имеют высоту от 6200 до 8000 метров. Самая наивысшая вершина планеты также находится в гималайских горах – это Джомолунгма (Эверест) , высота которой достигает 8848 метров.
