Led by an Everest record-holder · His story

A Kathmandu company, run by mountain people

Sherpa Khangri Outdoor was founded by Temba Tsheri Sherpa, who summited Everest at sixteen. The team around him is the reason guests come back.

01 — Dolakha, 1985

Meet our founder

A record, then a company.

1985 — Tashinam, Dolakha

Temba Tsheri Sherpa was born in a village in Nepal's Dolakha district, in the Rolwaling country east of Kathmandu — the same valleys the company still guides today.

23 May 2001 — 8,849 m

His first attempt on Everest cost him five fingers to frostbite. He went back. At sixteen he reached the summit, and Guinness World Records named him the youngest person ever to climb it.

After the summit

Ama Dablam, Island Peak and Mera Peak at home, and a team of Sherpa climbers who had spent their lives in the same high valleys.

Today — Kathmandu

Sherpa Khangri Outdoor runs every route end to end, with no brokered handovers. Every guide is first-aid and rescue trained, and every itinerary is built to the guest's own dates.
