Guided trip
Hello! My name is Ramesh and I did the Everest Base Camp trek more than 500 times, so you will be in good hands! I will be your TripLeader and plan everything for you, just join and enjoy the adventure. 📍 ​The plan Island Peak climbing with Everest Base Camp Trek is designed for those people, who are mentally as well Physical Fit. If the trekkers have little experience of the expedition in the Himalayas, then it is helpful for the climbers. We embark on a wonderland adventure during our trip. This adventure takes us into the heartland of the Khumbu Valley as well as the Everest base camp (5357m/17575ft). The island peak climbing with the Everest base camp trek is more adventurous and technical. The trek commences with an easy scramble along with a rock ridge to a glacier. In the above, there is a steep snow headwall leading to the classic summit ridge. This trail goes through Namche Bazar, where we are able to explore the Sherpa culture, dress, etc., which will be very interesting to see! We also visit other most popular trekking trails of Nepal. Such, as Kala Patthar with Everest base camp Trek during this trek before scaling the Island Peak. The journey of Island peak climbing with Everest base camp trekking as well climbing starts after taking a short and scenic mountain flight from Kathmandu to Lukla. It takes about 30 min to reach Lukla. We are observing the gorgeous views of Khumbu or the Everest region during the flight to Lukla. The thick forest of rhododendron, oak, Birch, and Pine trees are the attraction on the way to Dingboche. Our first point of Island peak climbing is Dingboche. Ice axes, crampons, and other equipment give you more confidence to climb this technical and challenging climbing of Island peak. The snow capped mountains, glaciers, Mt. Makalu, Mt. Lhotse, Lhotse Shar, Lhotse middle peak, Mt. Nuptse, Mt. Baruntse, and gorgeous views of Ama Dablam give you relief from the tiredness.
