Read the full journey overview
In the moraine of the Khumbu Glacier lies this stunning Lobuche Peak. There are two different mountain; East Lobuche and West Lobuche. This is East Lobuche Peak summit. If you have climbed alps and are looking for the next expedition, perhaps it might be an ideal choice. It is a trip that is doable for anyone who has never climbed before but has a strong sense of adventure. Sir Edmund Hillary, first person to climb Mt. Everest, once quoted, ‘It's not the mountains we conquer, but ourselves.’ So, if you want to experience the feeling of conquering yourself standing on a tiny Himalayas, then you should surely start this journey through this trek. It is an easy summit with less technical tool usage experience but surely requires you to be in the best physical and mental state. The trek follows the standard Everest Base Camp route and summit starts from Lobuche High camp. It lasts for 14N/15D and requires prior experience with high altitude.
