Reena Bhatti[1] is an Indian mountaineer known for her achievements in scaling various mountain peaks around the world. She made history as the first Indian woman[2] to hoist the Indian flag on the highest peak of the continent of Russia and Europe, [3]Mount Elbrus East (5621 meters) and Mount Elbrus West (5642 meters), within 24 hours. Additionally, she became the first woman from abroad to hoist her country's flag on both Mount Kong Yatse (6250 meters) and Mount Jongo (6240 meters) in Ladakh in an impressive duration of 70 hours.[4]

Early life

Reena Bhatti[5] was born on June 3, 1988, in Hisar, Haryana, as the daughter of Sh. Balwan Singh. She completed her diploma in Computer Science from Govt Polytechnic and pursued a Master's degree in Computer Science from Guru Jambheshwar University of Science and Technology in Hisar.[6]

Career

After completing her Master's degree, Reena Bhatti[7] started working in the IT sector as a manager in an authorized service centre in Hisar. Her interest in trekking grew during her studies, and after successfully completing the Chadar Trek, she decided to pursue mountaineering as a profession. Reena underwent Basic and Advanced Mountaineering Courses at the Atal Bihari Vajpayee Institute of Mountaineering and Allied Sports, where she honed her mountaineering skills.[8]

Her decision to become a mountaineer was quite unusual. As a child she always dreamt of doing something different, living a life that not every common girl or woman lives. To decide what she wanted to do in her life, she used to go to the mountains and sit in the lap of the nature. The peaceful nature of mountains gave her the maximum time to introspect and it was amidst the high scaling mountains that she got her answer.

In 2024, Reena plans to scale Mt. Dhaulagiri, the 7th highest peak in the world, in Apr-May 2024 without using bottled Oxygen aiming to become the first Indian to do so. She also plans to scale Mt. Everest-Mt. Lhotse in May 2024.
