Poornima Shrestha

Photojournalist and mountaineer Poornima Shrestha is attempting to become the first Nepali female to reach the top of Annapurna I (8,091meters).

Annapurna I is considered one of the toughest ascents as it poses extreme weather conditions and risks to mountaineers all over the world.

She has successfully summited the world's highest peak Mt. Everest 8,848.86 m.(29,032 ft.) in Spring 2018, and Ama Dablam a year later. Purnima will be accompanied by a 17-member team of Seven Summit Treks and Expedition in the climb.

Access Nepal Tour & Trekking wishes her success. Make us proud!
