Mount Tahat

           Mount Tahat (جبل تاهات) is the highest mountain peak in Algeria, at 2,908 metres (9,541 ft). Tahat is also the highest peak in the Ahaggar (Hoggar جبال هقار) Mountains. Its nearest city is Tamanrasset which is located 56 km to its south.
           The Hoggar Mountains ( جبال هقار‎), also known as the Ahaggar, are a highland region in central Sahara, or southern Algeria, along the Tropic of Cancer. They are located about 1,500 km (900 mi) south of the capital, Algiers and just west of Tamanghasset.  The Hoggar Mountain range is chiefly volcanic rock and contains a hot summer climate, with a cold winter climate (temperatures fall below 0°C in the winter).
