International Everest Day 2025 will be celebrated on May 29. This day remembers the first successful climb of Mount Everest by Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay in 1953. It honors thier achievement and inspires people to follow the spirit of adventure.
Before 1953, many people had tried to climb Mount Everest, but no one had reached the top. Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay finally succeeded in climbing it from the Nepali side on May 29, 1953.
In 2008, after the death of Sir Edmund Hillary, the Nepal government declared May 29th as International Everest Day. This day also celebrates the friendship between Nepal and New Zealand and honors the hard work of Sherpa guides in mountain climbing.
Sir Edmund Hillary became a world hero after reaching the top of Everest. But he also did many good things for Nepal. He started the Himalayan Trust in 1960 to help the Sherpa people. He helped build schools, hospitals and roads in remote areas. The people of Nepal loved and respected him for his kindness and support.
Tenzing Norway was a skilled Sherpa climber. He became famous after reaching the summit of Everest with Hillary. He helped people understand how important Sherpa climbers are.
He started the Himalayan Mountaineering Institute in Darjeeling, India in 1954 to train new climbers. In 1978, he also opened a trekking company. He worked hard to help Sherpas get better jobs and respect in the climbing world.
Mount Everest is the tallest mountain in the world, standing at 8,848 meters (29,029 feet). Climbing it is a big dream for many people. It shows the power of human will and the love for adventure.
Reaching the top of Everest is not easy. Climbers face cold weather, strong winds and lack of oxygen, but they still try because Everest is a symbol of strength and courage.
Mount Everest is in the Himalayas, on the border of Nepal and Tibet (China). The most popular climbing path is from the Nepal side.
In 1856, it was first measured by the Great Trigonometrical Survey of India and called Peak XV. In 1865, it was renamed Mount Everest after Sir George Everest, a British surveyor.
Climbing Everest is a very big goal, but even trekking to Everest Base Camp is a popular and exciting adventure. Thousands of people do this trek every year.
They get to see beautiful mountains, Sherpa villages and Khumbu Glacier. It is a great way to feel the beauty and spirit of Everest without climbing to the top.
This day reminds us of the great success of Hillary and Norgay. It honors all brave climbers who have dared to climb the tallest mountain.
It also teaches us to care for nature and promote safe and eco-friendly tourism in the mountains. International Everest Day encourages young people to dream big, respect nature and learn from the Sherpas.
