On the 6th of September, 2013, the Rock Climbing School at Bhongir was established by Shri Shekhar Babu Bachinepally and Shri Parmesh Kumar. Shekhar Babu, an accomplished mountaineer with successful climbs above 8000 meters, including Mount Everest, received the prestigious ‘Tenzing Norgay National Adventure Award’ from the President of India. Parmesh Kumar, a seasoned outdoorsman with over 25 years in rock climbing, mountaineering, and adventure sports, co-founded the school.
The idea behind the Rock Climbing School was to cultivate the spirit of adventure in the Telugu states. After extensive exploration of potential locations, the monolithic rock formation in Bhongir was chosen for its natural features suitable for all training levels. Internationally acclaimed rock climbers were invited for a site visit, confirming Bhongir Rock as the ideal location. The government promptly approved the proposal, leading to the inauguration of the project. The school kicked off with a 1-Day Orientation Course for local schools in Bhongir, followed by an exhilarating free program for the town's youth, generating widespread excitement.

Transcend Adventures took care of my entire training and preparation when I had climbed Mt.Everest in 2014. The attention to detail they have given in the training phase made sure that I did not have any ‘surprise’ experience during the actual climb. I personally feel that they are the best to offer mountaineering training for beginners who wish to climb big mountains
Climbed Mt.Everest In 2014
It’s too hard for me sum up in words, how Transcend Adventures was-has-will be part of my life. Honestly, this is where my journey into the mountains has begun and still continuing. I am most comfortable and safe, each time I do an expedition with Transcend Adventures. The best thing about climbing with Transcend Adventures are the hospitality arrangements. I never miss my steamed rice and pickle, while on an expedition!

Transcend Adventures is the go-to expedition outfitter if you have to climb 8000m peaks. The training that they offer is like no other. Yes, at times they make you train very hard, but in the end, it’s all worth it. Their team right from Admin to on-ground personnel are very knowledgeable and carry a lot of experience.
