Climbing the world’s highest mountain, Raha Moharrak stepped into the history books by becoming the first Saudi woman to climb the summit of Mount Everest in 2013.
She was also the youngest Saudi to reach the top of the world and was part of the first Arab team to do the climb. Moharrak, who climbed nine of the world’s most famous summits, is an inspiration for young women across the Middle East. She is also the first Arab woman to represent Tag Heuer alongside football legend Christiano Ronaldo and Palestinian-American model Bella Hadid.Â
