Ultar Sar is notable for its dramatic rise above the local terrain.
 
Its south flank rises over 5,300 metres ( 17,388 feet )

 above the Hunza Valley

near Karimabad, in only about 10km ( 6 miles ) of horizontal distance.

Combined with its strategic position at the end of the Batura Muztagh,

with the Hunza River bending around it,
 
this makes Ultar a visually striking peak.
