Samina Khayal Baig (Urdu: ثمینہ خیال بیگ; born 19 September 1990)[1] is a Pakistani mountaineer who climbed Mount Everest in 2013, all Seven Summits by 2014, and K2 in 2022. She is the first Pakistani woman to climb Everest, K2 and the Seven Summits. She climbed Mt. Everest at the age of 21.[2][3][4]
Samina was the first to climb the peak Chashkin Sar (above 6,000 meters) in Pakistan in 2010, which was later renamed Samina Peak after her.[5][6] She reached the summit of 'Koh-i-Brobar' ('Mount Equality') in 2011.[6] An attempt at the seven kilometer high Spantik Peak ended in failure for Baig, due to adverse weather conditions.[6]
Samina was able to climb K2 in July 2022 at the age of 31 years 10 months and 5 days. She's the first Pakistani woman to achieve this feat.[7]
