Everest

The mountain is a symbol of spirituality and human perseverance.
Mount Everest, the highest point on the planet and the so-called "Roof of the World", rises imposingly to 8,848 metres in the Himalayan mountain range. It is the ultimate dream for climbers from every corner of the globe.
The history of the mountain is rich in legends and human achievements. In 1852, Indian surveyors made the historic discovery that it was the highest point on earth. However, the milestone that was to change history came in 1953, when New Zealander Edmund Hillary and Sherpa Tenzing Norgay became the first people to set foot on the summit.
Conquering Everest requires extreme fitness, specialist equipment and thorough preparation. Climbers face the challenge of the "Death Zone" - the area above 8,000 metres where oxygen is dangerously scarce. Nevertheless, conquering the summit remains the ultimate dream for mountaineering enthusiasts worldwide.
Beyond its sporting dimension, Everest is a powerful symbol for the region. It is a place where spirituality, challenge and human perseverance meet - a monument that tests the limits of human will and endurance.
