Trek with the Expedition. Join the public trek.

The Team

A group of 12 experienced mountaineers and two support members will trek over the Himalayas from Pongsau Pass in Arunachal Pradesh to Leh, in Ladakh. Led by Ms Bachendri Pal, the first Indian woman to scale Mt Everest, the core team comprises of women above the age of 50.
 

The members come from all walks of life: home-makers, retired professionals and past summiteers of Mt Everest, ‘Everesters’ as we call them. This expedition signifies strength, vigor and will power. These women will endure the test of physical stamina and mental toughness.
 

The team, handpicked by Ms Pal, is highly motivated and well-prepared to succeed. The knowledge and experience of each member will be a boon in one way or the other during the entire expedition.
