Island Peak Ascent
Island Peak (Imja Tse), standing at 6,189 meters, is one of Nepal's most sought-after trekking peaks, offering an exhilarating blend of trekking and mountaineering. This 22-day adventure takes you through the iconic Solu Khumbu region, home to the majestic Mount Everest, known as Sagarmatha in Nepali and Chomolungma in Tibetan.
The journey starts with a scenic flight to Lukla, followed by trekking through lush valleys, dense rhododendron forests, and traditional Sherpa villages. Along the way, you'll acclimatize while exploring legendary locations like Namche Bazaar, Tengboche Monastery, and the stunning Gokyo Lakes. Ascending Kala Patthar (5,550m) provides panoramic views of Everest, Nuptse, and the Khumbu Glacier, a perfect prelude to Island Peak's challenging ascent.
The climb itself combines breathtaking vistas and technical adventure. With professional guidance, you'll traverse glaciers, ascend steep ice walls, and use mountaineering gear to reach the summit, where you'll be rewarded with awe-inspiring views of peaks like Lhotse, Makalu, and Ama Dablam.
This trek suits physically fit adventurers with a passion for high-altitude trekking, endurance sports, and mountaineering. Combining lodge-based trekking with camping for the ascent, it delivers a complete Himalayan experience.
