Naila Kiani became Pakistan’s first female mountaineer to set foot in the Kanchenjunga Peak, the third highest mountain in the world, while continued on his trip to climb the mountains of 8,000 meters high, commonly known as the “eight miles.”
The Kanchenjunga peak of 8,586 meters is the 12th Eight Bil Milar, sincere by Kiani. With two more, he would join the 17 elite mountains in the world that have conquered the 14 eight miles. Now he looks at Cho Oyu and Shishapangma.
In a little less than three years, he became the first Pakistani woman at Summit 11 of the 14th Miles: K2 (8,611m); Everest (8,848m); Lhotse (8,516m); Makalu (8,485m); Annapurna I (8,091m); In addition to Broad Peak, Manaslu, Dhaulagiri, Gasherbrum I and II, and Nanga Parbat. In 2023 alone, he achieved the extraordinary feat of summarizing seven 8,000 -meter peaks in just six months, placing it in the company of only a handful of climbers worldwide to have achieved that milestone in a single season of climbing.
Kiani, a former banquera and mother of two children, is not just a climber but an environmental activist, who inspires a generation of Pakistani women to dream beyond the limits placed before them. She is a passionate defender of sustainable escalation.
Previously, he directed environmental campaigns, such as a large altitude cleaning in K2, and a recovery mission for the Pakistani goalkeeper Muhammad Hassan Shigri, which takes the closure to his family of mourning, according to the Bard Foundation, which supports Kiani’s expeditions.
“Naila represents the spirit itself that our goal is to nurture in Bard: resilience, courage and the unwavering search for excellence.
