Mt Khangchengyao Expedition: A team of mountaineers from the Spearhead Division of the Spear Corps of the Indian Army set off for Mt Khangchengyao in North Sikkim on Tuesday.

Mt Khangchengyao is 6,889 metres high and is considered an extremely challenging mountain to climb. It has steep ice walls, and the weather in the area is unpredictable.

“Embracing the spirit of adventure, resilience, and teamwork, Spearhead Division under Spear Corps ceremonially flagged off the Mt Khangchengyao Expedition 2026 to Mt Khangchengyao (6,889 metres) from Rayang Military Station, Arunachal Pradesh. From Rayang to the summit, the expedition embodies the spirit to aim high, endure together, and overcome every challenge with determination, carrying the Tricolour proudly to the peak,” the Spear Corps of the Army’s Eastern Command posted on X.
