Manaslu is the eighth highest mountain in the world, and is known as killer mountain because the summit peak is really narrow, but that didn't stop Qatar Olympic Committee Director of Marketing and Communications and first Qatari woman to reach the North Pole Sheikha Asma Al-Thani to reach its peak on 27 September 2021. She is the first Qatari to raise Qatar's flag at the top of this 8,163-metre summit in Nepal.
Sheikha Asma Al-Thani is also the first Arab to summit an 8000-metre mountain without oxygen.
Sheikha Asma is a sports lover at heart and an adventurer. She loves art and everything about it. She believes limits are just a state of mind, and it's up to us to break down any walls we set up, and that's just what she's done by climbing different summits and reaching the North Pole
