Mount manaslu

Mountaineer Shradha Gupta: Indian mountaineer Shradha Gupta is currently on her Mount Everest expedition, marking another major milestone in her rapidly rising climbing journey after successfully summiting Mount Manaslu (8,163 metres) -- the world’s eighth-highest mountain.

Shradha reached the summit of Manaslu on September 26, 2025, at 8.06 a.m., alongside elite guide Tenji Sherpa with Nirmal Purja’s Elite Exped team.

Manaslu is one of the legendary 14 peaks above 8,000 metres, located in the extreme high-altitude “death zone,” where oxygen levels are critically low, and conditions are among the harshest in mountaineering.
