Zow Tlang

Zow Tlang, also known as Reang Haphong, is a mountain located on the Bangladesh–Myanmar border. The mountain's elevation is 1,022 meters.


"Zow" in Bawm means "Mizo," a term derived from Mizoram, India. This is most likely because Bangladesh was a part of Greater India prior to 1947. The word "Tlang" means "mountain." Zow Tlang is referred to as "Mowdok Mual" on American and Russian topographic maps. According to Bangla Trek, it is the country's second highest peak, though it is not officially recognized by the government. Many local adventurers regard this as one of Bangladesh's wildest peaks.


Subrata Das Nitish and Bijoy Shankar Kar, two Bangladeshi adventurers, were the first to reach the summit in 2005. The feat was repeated in 2007 by the same team. The altitude could not be measured in these two expeditions because the team did not have a GPS device with them. Tashdid Rezwan Mugdho, Tarikul Alom Sujon, Salehin Arshady, and S.M. Mainul of the Bangla Trek team summited the peak for the third time on January 12, 2012. They took precise measurements of altitude and location. Mugdho and Sujon, two team members, were killed in a bus crash on their way back to Bandarban. Salehin and Mainul, the other two members, were seriously injured.


On October 13, 2013, a team led by Shahzaman Chowdhury Hira became the third to reach the summit. Sharfaraj Hussain Jony, Sidratul Afia Mohona, Mahbubur Rahman, Abdullah Anas Oni, and Baqui Billah Milon were among the six members of this team. One of the members of this team was the first woman to reach the summit of this mountain. Following that, several other teams reached the summit.
