Lobuche Peak, situated in the Khumbu region above the Lobuche village has two main peaks; Lobuche East (6,119 m) and Lobuche West (6,145 m). It is near to the world’s highest peak Mount Everest. The Lobuche Peak climbing we are going to discuss is the Lobuche East.
The Lobuche East is an easier trekking peak and is often attempted a lot more frequently than the west peak. It is a moderately challenging peak and demands general technical climbing skill. We arrange your training on how to tie ropes, use an ice axe, and crampons.
You will start your day at pre-dawn on the day of the final climb to the peak. You will have climbing experts to guide you along the way but it is essential that you are familiar with the use of your climbing equipment.
You can join this Lobuche Peak Climbing as an add-on to your Everest Base Camp trek. Or you can arrange it to be a single climbing adventure.
Please contact us if you have any questions or queries.
