Karl Marx Peak, mountain peak in the extreme southwestern Pamirs in Gorno-Badakhshan autonomous oblast (province) of Tajikistan. At an elevation of 22,067 feet (6,726 m), it is the highest summit of the Shakhdarin Mountains, which extend in a roughly east-west direction between the valleys of the Shakhdara River to the north and of the Panj to the south. The peak was first climbed from the Shakhdara valley by Soviet alpinists in September 1946.
