The Janhukut is a 6805 m high mountain in the Himalayas in Uttarakhand ( India ).
The mountain is located in the Gangotri Group in the eastern Garhwal Himalayas . The Gangotrigletscher flows on its southern flank in a north-westerly direction. Bhagirath Kharak Glacier stretches along the northeast flank of the mountain. A 6040 m high saddle separates the Janhukut from Chaukhamba ( 7138 m ), 5.65 km southeast . Another mountain ridge leads to Satopanth ( 7075 m ), just under 8 kilometers to the north .
In June 2002 the Austrians Josef Jöchler and Christian Zenz tried in vain to climb the mountain for the first time.
