Lobuche East Peak (6119m) is a great introduction expedition to Himalayan climbing. It can be done combined with Everest Base Camp or 3 High Passes or Cho La (mountain pass) treks in the Sagarmatha National Park. It is surrounded by the tallest peaks on Earth.

The Lobuche East Peak is also a mountaineer’s favorite as a great training peak before they head to Everest or the Ama Dablam expedition.

We climb through the regular Southwest Face route that most groups follow on Lobuche East. Leaving  High Camp, we climb up through the terrain on rock, moderate snow, and ice in crampons. Our guide fixes the line to protect more en route. The summit of Lobuche Peak is a great viewpoint that allows seeing Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, Makalu, Cho Oyu, Ama Dablam, Pumo Ri, and Cholatse Peak.

Two peaks in distance are known as Lobuche East (6119m) and West (6135m). The Lobuche West can climb through a deeply notched ridge combined with East Peak.

We can obtain climbing permits, manage logistics, and support an experienced mountain guide and porters. Our guide can help the customers climb on fixed lines or the alpine style of their choice. We can also help anyone who is looking for ventures into little-known climbing routes of any mountains in Nepal.
