Islamabad:Naila Kiani has successfully summited Kanchenjunga (8,586m)—becoming the first Pakistani woman to scale 12 of the world’s 14 peaks above 8,000 meters.
This is far more than just a climb, it is a monumental milestone in the history of Pakistani mountaineering and a moment of immense national pride. With just two peaks left, Naila stands on the threshold of joining a global elite of only 17 women to have conquered all 14 eight-thousanders. From the towering heights of Everest and K2 to the perilous slopes of Annapurna and Lhotse, her journey tells a powerful story of grit, resilience, and an unshakable will.
This is not just a personal achievement—it is a symbol of empowerment for women in sports, a beacon of hope and inspiration for Pakistan, and a proud moment for every mountaineering enthusiast.
