Bangladesh is primarily a low lying country. The main areas of elevation are the Chittagong Hills in the southeast, the highest peak in Bangladesh. The Chittagong Hills, which are the only significant hill system in the country, contain at least seventy five mountain peaks, which range in altitude approximately from above sea level. The highest point in the Chittagongs and Bangladesh is at at Saka Haphong in the Mowdok mountain range.

Saka Haphong is the Tripura tribal name which is the highest peak of Chittagong and Bangladesh. The peak is at an altitude of 2,552 m (8,451 ft), as recorded in 2006 by English adventurer Ginge Fullen. Saka Haphong is located at in the Mowdok mountain range on the border with Myanmar.

Zow Tlang or Reang Haphong is a peak in the Mowdok range located at on the border with Myanmar. Its peak is at an altitude of According to Bangla Trek, it is the second highest peak in the country, though it has not yet been officially recognized by Bangladesh's government. The local name comes from the Bawm language. The name 'Zow' refers to 'Mizo', a derivative of Mizoram in India. 'Tlang' means mountain in the Bwam language. The official name, 'Mowdok Mual', comes from American and Russian topographic maps. Van Rausang Bawm from the local 'Bawm ethnic community', Dalian headman Para of 'Remakri' Mouja, Thanchi Upozila in the Bandarban district, Chittagong was the one to discover it. On the 13th of November, 2019, Engineer Jyotirmoy Dhar had become the first Bangladeshi to have climbed the mountain.

In 2011, Wadud Mohosin Rubel alongside his three travel partners Asif Aminur Rashid, Nagib Meshkat and Abdul Haque have claimed the mountain, 'Dumlong/Msha Panji Haphong' to be the second highest mountain in Bangladesh on the basis of measurements made by their Garmin GPS. The height was found at 3,314 ft. (1,010 m). The location was recorded as 22°02′02.1″N 92°35′36.3″E, accurately matching the coordinates given by Google Earth. A few months after this expedition, a team of Bangladeshi travelers led by Zaqiul Deep measured the height at 3,312 ft. (1,009 m). A third team also reached the summit later led by Fahim Hasan of BD Explorer. There is no doubt about the height of Dumlong but whether it is the second or third highest mountain in the country is yet to be confirmed. Nevertheless, it is indeed the highest peak of Rangamati Hill District and one of only three mountains measured at more than a thousand metres in height. In 2014, several teams climbed the summit of Zow Tlang, and based on their readings, they surmised Dumlong is the third highest mountain in Bangladesh.

Although it is widely reported to be the highest point in Bangladesh at , recent SRTM data, GPS readings and Russian topographic mapping show that its true height is less than
On the top of Keokradong there is a small shelter and a signboard put up by the Bangladeshi military proclaiming the altitude to be Garmin GPS recorded at this location, a different team measured with accuracy by GPS, a measurement consistent with Russian topographic mapping and SRTM data. It is at USGS and Russian mapping dispute the claim that this is the location correctly named Keokradong; they show Keokradong at an summit further north.
