Shehroze Kashif (Urdu: شہروز کاشف; born 11 March 2002)[1] is a Pakistani mountaineer who became the youngest climber in the world to summit K2 on 27 July 2021.[2][3] He became the youngest Pakistani to summit Mount Everest on 11 May 2021.[4][5] After the successful summit of Mount Everest, Sports Board Punjab made him the youth ambassador of Punjab, Pakistan.[6] He summited Broad Peak at the age of 17, after which he was called 'The Broad Boy'.

In October 2024, Shehroze Kashif became Pakistan's youngest to climb all 14 Eight Thousanders. He is the second Pakistani to climb all 14 8000ers after Sirbaz Khan.[7]

On 5 May 2022, Kashif became the youngest in the world and the first Pakistani to reach the summit of Kangchenjunga - the third highest peak in the world.[11] On 16 May 2022, Kashif summited the world's fourth-highest peak, Lhotse (8,516m), in Nepal.[12] On 28 May 2022, Kashif and Sirbaz Khan summited 8,485 metres Makalu, the world's fifth-highest peak, in Nepal.[13]

In July 2022, Kashif and Fazal Ali went missing between Camp 4 and Camp 3, after successfully summiting Nanga Parbat. However, the duo was discovered shortly after.[14][15][16]

On 1 November 2022, Kashif was recognised by Guinness World Records for the year 2023 for summiting Mount Everest and K2.[17][18]
