Kathmandu, May 23, 2025 — TrekHeaven.com proudly congratulates veteran mountaineer Wangda Sherpa on his fourth successful ascent of Mount Everest, the highest peak on Earth, on Jestha 10, 2082 (May 23, 2025) at 9:09 AM NST. Originally from Surke, Patle-1, Molung Rural Municipality-7, Okhaldhunga District, Wangda Sherpa now resides in Kathmandu and continues to inspire the climbing community through both his mountaineering achievements and his strong message of peace.
What sets this ascent apart is not only the altitude reached, but the values carried along the way. With a banner promoting “Let’s Be Vegetarian – Stop Animal Sacrifice”, Sherpa reached the summit with a mission larger than the mountain: to spread awareness about non-violence, compassion toward animals, and the importance of a plant-based lifestyle.
This act adds a spiritual layer to an already physically and mentally demanding feat. Wangda Dai, as he is affectionately known, is a supporter of the campaign at Pashupatinath Temple, where he has participated to raise awareness through his peaceful advocacy against animal sacrifice.
Beyond Everest, Wangda Sherpa has proven his resilience and dedication with hundreds of successful climbs of Nepal’s iconic 6,000-meter peaks, including the technically demanding Ama Dablam. His career as a climber is a blend of elite athleticism and deep moral commitment.
Family, friends, and admirers from across Nepal and the mountaineering world have extended their warmest congratulations. Among those who played a pivotal role in supporting this mission is respected animal rights monk Venerable Ang Nima Sherpa, who has tirelessly supported the vegetarian and animal rights cause.
As we at TrekHeaven honor Wangda Sherpa’s extraordinary achievement, we also applaud the deeper message he brought to the highest point on Earth. Mountains may be climbed, but it is the messages we carry to the summit that define the journey.
Congratulations, Wangda Sherpa! May your future expeditions be just as inspiring.
