The official trailer of ‘Road to Everest’, a documentary centered on the courage, mystery, challenges and impact of climate change surrounding Sagarmatha, has been released. The trailer offers a compelling glimpse into an extraordinary journey from sea level to the summit of the world’s highest mountain, capturing human courage, struggle and determination along the way.

Produced with an entirely Nepali technical team, the documentary contains no artificial or computer-generated visuals, according to the production team. ‘Road to Everest’ is claimed to be the first Sagarmatha documentary to document a complete real-life journey from sea level to the summit using entirely authentic footage.

The documentary is the result of more than two years of research, filming and production. The story has been written by journalist Santosh Acharya and Nirmal Shrestha. Featuring the voice of renowned broadcaster Bhusan Dahal, the documentary has been produced in both Nepali and English.

At the heart of the documentary is the inspiring journey of Raj Gurung, a man in his fifties who challenges age, time, and his own limitations to pursue his dream of climbing Sagarmatha. According to the production team, his journey goes beyond mountaineering, becoming a story of dreams, struggle, self-belief, and the human determination to turn the seemingly impossible into reality.

Directed by Nirmal Shrestha, ‘Road to Everest’ goes beyond showcasing the grandeur of Sagarmatha. It explores the risks and challenges of high-altitude mountaineering, the tireless contribution of the Sherpa community, human courage, and the rapidly changing Himalayan environment under the impact of climate change. The documentary seeks to portray Sagarmatha not merely as a mountain, but as a symbol of courage, perseverance, determination and human potential.

The documentary features renowned mountaineers Phurba Tenzing Sherpa and Nima Gyalzen Sherpa. Phurba has successfully summited Sagarmatha 18 times, while Nima has successfully climbed Sagarmatha 10 times and completed all 14 of the world’s 8,000-meter peaks. Vinod Gurung, Suraj Gurung and Nirmal Shrestha also appear as fellow travelers and important figures throughout the journey.
