Earth is full of breathtaking sceneries. Many types of scenery are beautiful, but few geological features are as dramatic, breathtaking, and awe-inspiring as mountains. Mountains soar high above our heads, astounding us with their heights and features. Here are the list of attractive mountains in the world.
# The Matterhorn, Switzerland
This mountain peak is going to be high on a lot of lists. This mountain is iconic of the Swiss Alps, and also serves as a very exciting and dangerous climb for those who wish to ascend.
# Denali, Alaska
At 20,320 feet, Denali isn't the world's highest mountain (an honor belonging to Mt. Everest, of course). Denali is a beastly beauty surrounded by otherworldly wilderness, which contains glaciers, tundra, forests and 39 mammals, including grizzly bears.
# Kirkjufell, Iceland
Kirkjufell is a miracle. When the weather is hot, the mountain is green and the nearby Kirkjufellsfoss waterfall rages. In cold weather, snow covers the mountain making it shine, the sky is colored by auroras and Kirkjufellsfoss waterfall is frozen.
# Table Mountain, South Africa
This mountain, like Kirkjufell, is another horizontal peak which does not reach particularly high. Despite this, it is very lovely to behold, especially as it rises against the sea, echoing the strong horizontal of the ocean.
# Ama Dablam, Nepal
Ama Dablam, which is not even in the top 100 highest mountains in this range, is distinguished by its supreme beauty. Most mountains build up gradually, but Ama Dablam juts into the sky and demands attention.
