[7000]

We all know the 7 summits... but what are the summits with the most mythological 'attractiveness'. From the 7 Everest, Carstensz and Kili obviously have it as well as Elbrus (mentioned in ancient greek texts already). Denali, Vinson and Aconc. perhaps not.

Apart from them though... Ararat? which else?

[Ron]

maybe the "tafelberg"in south africa?? it has a lot of history aswell

[trunl]

denali is TOO mythological. it has many stories in its history.

[7summits]

Aconcagua for sure (inca's); Ararat (Ark of Noah).
K2: no woman who climbed it is still alive (!).
Many peaks in the himalaya are sacred as well.
Rwenzori: the mountains of the moon

hey 7000, why do u want to know?

[MoT]

Um, how about:

Olympus?

Ararat?

Sinai?

Surely some of the Hawaiian volcanoes?

Mount Brandon and Croagh Patrick in Ireland (small religious saintly mountains)
