Abi Gamin (also Ibi Gamin ) is a 7355  m high peak in the Himalayas in the Indian state of Uttarakhand on the border with China .

Abi Gamin is the third highest peak in Garhwal . Due to the low notch height, it forms a northeastern secondary peak of the 7756  m high Kamet , from which it is separated by the 7138 m high saddle Meade's Col.

The first ascent of Abi Gamin was achieved on August 22, 1950 by a British-Swiss expedition ( René Dittert , Alfred Tissières and Gabriel Chevalley ). The ascent route led from the Tibetan side over the Manapass and the Mangnang Glacier and the northeast ridge to the summit.
