Dates: September 19 – 30, 2025
Destination: Annapurna Base Camp, Nepal
On September 19, 2025, I will begin an unforgettable adventure into the heart of the Nepalese Himalayas — the Annapurna Base Camp Trek. This journey will take me through a rich tapestry of landscapes: from lush rhododendron forests and cascading waterfalls to high alpine meadows and the towering amphitheater of snow-clad peaks.
The trek will weave through authentic Gurung and Magar villages, where I’ll experience warm hospitality, taste fresh local meals, and witness traditions that have thrived for centuries. Each day will bring me closer to the iconic Annapurna Sanctuary, surrounded by giants like Annapurna I (8,091 m), Machapuchare (Fishtail), Hiunchuli, and Gangapurna.
September is a special time in the Annapurna region — the monsoon rains will have left the air crystal-clear, the trails vibrant with greenery, and the skies offering spectacular views. The early autumn conditions mean cool mornings, comfortable trekking days, and dazzling mountain sunrises.
Our yogi’s quest to create a world record began with a desire to explore the power of yoga in one of the most challenging environments on Earth—the Everest Base Camp. Their journey involved trekking through the Khumbu Valley, acclimatizing at high altitudes, and performing advanced yoga poses under extreme weather conditions.
The idea to set this record came during a visit to Tibet, where the realization of testing yoga’s potential in a hypoxic environment took root. This journey is more than a record; it’s a statement that yoga’s power knows no bounds.
Everest Yogi’s mission is to inspire others to explore their inner strength, embrace the discipline of yoga, and challenge themselves beyond their perceived limits.
