Skil Brum (also Skilbrum ) is a 7410 meters meters high mountain in the Karakoram Mountains in northern Pakistan, and lies about 9 km west- southwest of the K2. It lies on the western side of the Godwin - Austen Glacier, opposite the Broad Peak.

In 1957 the Austrians Marcus Schmuck and Fritz Winter plates mounted as the first Skil Brum in alpine style. They started on June 18 from their base camp on Broad Peak in 4950 m height, camped at 6,060 meters above sea level and reached the summit the next day. They returned the next morning back to the base camp. For the entire climb from base camp to the summit and back, the two climbers needed only 53 hours.
