A Sydney-based mountaineer has set her sights on reaching the world's highest mountains in just three years.

Allie Pepper made history as the first Australian woman to summit Broad Peak on the China/Pakistan border- the first phase of her grand plan.

She aims to beat the speed record for climbing the world's 14 highest mountains without supplemental oxygen by 2026.
