Report: Flag-Off Ceremony – All Women Kuari Pass Trek 2026

The spirit of the mountains came alive on 10th May 2026 as we flagged off the inspiring All Women Kuari Pass Trek at Basanta Bihar, Adarsha Pally, Belghoria, Kolkata.
Organised by: Kamarhati Trekkers' Association
Supported by: Indian Mountaineering Foundation, East Zone.

With the Himalayan winds already calling, eight courageous women stood ready to trace the legendary Lord Curzon Trail and summit Kuari Pass at 3,815m. The air was filled with pride, excitement, and the rustle of fluttering flags as the journey began — not on the trail, but right here at home.

The ceremony was graced by Sri Gobinda Ganguly, President, KTA, and Sri Debdas Nandy, Advisor, WBMASF, along with other distinguished guests who blessed the team with warm wishes and words of strength.

- Leader: Subhashree Banerjee
- Team: Asima Das, Rumi Karmakar, Diya Paul, Mangala Paul, Dipa Paul, Nishata Kundu, Arpita Banerjee

Trek Duration: 16th May – 26th May 2026

From the plains of Bengal to the snow-lined ridges of Uttarakhand, this team carries more than backpacks. They carry dreams, grit, and the message that mountains belong to everyone.
