ACROSS THE HIMALAYA (FIRST TRAVERSE BY WOMEN) BY VINEETA MUNI 680 g

Across the Himalaya is the untold story of an extraordinary journey—one that stretched across 4,500 kilometers, three countries, and 198 unforgettable days. In 1997, eight Indian women set out to traverse the length of the world's highest mountain range, led by Everest summiteer Bachendri Pal. Among them was Vineeta Muni, photographer, mountaineer, and seeker of quiet strength.

What began as a shared dream soon became a test of endurance, leadership, and deep personal resolve. As the group battled physical exhaustion, unpredictable terrain, and inner conflicts, Vineeta found herself at a crossroads—ultimately choosing to continue the journey with two teammates, forming a new, smaller unit that embraced the spirit of slow, soulful travel.

This is not just a record of passes and distances. It is a deeply human memoir, an exploration of resilience, trust, conflict, and clarity in the wild. With lyrical storytelling and vivid imagery, Vineeta invites us into the heart of the Himalaya and into her own inner transformation.

A trek that redefined limits. A story that reclaims voice.
