Trip Description


Lobuche East and Island Peak Expedition combine ascending peaks in the Everest Region. This itinerary ensures you acclimatize gradually whilst trekking up the Khumbu Valley to Everest base camp and gradually progressing before reaching the summit of Lobuche East Peak and Island Peak. Both the peaks are of a semi-technical nature. Lobuche East Peak 6119M is one of the most popular 6,000M climbing peaks in Nepal. Everest summit teams mostly use the Lobuche East peak as one of the training peaks before attempting the summit.

 Island Peak 6189M is another popular 6,000M+ climbing peak in Nepal. The peak is an extension of the ridge coming down off the south end of Lhotse Shar. Imja Tse is a popular mountaineering objective for climbers in Nepal.
