The Angel Sar (or Angel Peak ; English for " angel's peak ") is a 6858  m high elevation on the south-southwest ridge of the K2 in the Karakoram in Pakistan .

In good weather conditions, the summit offers an excellent view of K2, Broad Peak and Godwin-Austen Glacier . The notch height is around 500 m, so it is unclear whether the Angel Sar can be considered an independent mountain.
