Tenji Sherpa is a climbing and trekking guide from Solukhumbu, one of Nepal's famous regions for Mount Everest. As a result of being surrounded by high mountains all his life, Tenji has gained all his experience through the years of trekking and climbing in some of the most difficult areas of Nepal's highlands.
He has successfully summited Mount Everest and three other summits above 6,000 meters, gaining valuable hands-on experience in high-altitude climbing. In addition, he climbed Kanchenjunga and made it to 7,000 meters height during one of his climbs. All these experiences allowed Tenji to become an experienced climber who can understand changes in mountain weather, altitude, teamwork, and climbing discipline.
Tenji is an extraordinary climbing guide with calm character, determination, and love for mountains. He loves to work with climbers and trekkers, giving them his experience and helping them be confident and respectful to the Himalayas.
In Altitude Quest, Tenji is a valuable member of our team. The experience he gains in climbing, his Sherpa origins, and practical knowledge of the high-altitude environment will help to bring extra value to our expeditions. Every climb is a new experience for him to learn and share with others.
