About Gerlinde Kaltenbrunner.
Gerlinde Kaltenbrunner trained as a nurse in Vienna and stood on her first summit above 8,000 metres at the age of 23. In 2011 she reached the top of K2 and became the first woman to have climbed all fourteen 8,000-metre peaks without supplemental oxygen and without high-altitude porters.
Today she passes on what the mountains taught her in talks and seminars.
