Daily puzzle for Wednesday 30 September 2026
The answer
Rank by maximum elevation in the continent (lowest to highest)
- 1Mount Kosciuszko (Australia)2,228 metres
- 2Mont Blanc (Europe)4,808 metres
- 3Mount Kilimanjaro (Africa)5,895 metres
- 4Mount Everest (Asia)8,848 metres
Why this order
Ranked lowest to highest, Mount Kosciuszko (Australia) (2,228 metres) goes at the top and Mount Everest (Asia) (8,848 metres) at the bottom.
The closest call is Mont Blanc (Europe) (4,808 metres) against Mount Kilimanjaro (Africa) (5,895 metres), only about 23% apart. That is the swap most likely to cost a point.
The biggest gap is between Mount Kosciuszko (Australia) and Mont Blanc (Europe), about 2.2 times apart, so that boundary should be the easiest part of the order to get right.
