Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, Ama Dabam, Pumori, and other peaks from the summit of Lobuche East.

Even though the Everest Base Camp Trek is the most demanding journey in the Khumbu Region, the 18-day Lobuche Peak Climb rewards an equally thrilling journey that involves trekking and climbing at the same time. This non-technical Peak in Nepal can be summited within 3 weeks. Just like the Everest Expedition, climbers shouldn’t have to climb for 1-2 months. However, this voyage to Lobuche Peak goes past the popular Everest Base Camp Trekking.

Which Peak should we climb, Lobuche East or Lobuche West?

Mt. Lobuche lies near the Khumbu Glacier and Lobuche Village. Likewise, it has two summits, Lobuche East and Lobuche West. The trekking Peak is Lobuche East, whereas, LobucheWest is an expedition that requires an expedition permit. Lobuche West at 6145 meters is technically difficult than the other one. Lobuche East doesn’t require any technical to climb. Hence, the difficulty level of Lobuche East is fairly easy than other Expeditions of Nepal.

Lobuche Peak with Everest Base Camp Route

Starting this journey through the regular Everest Trekking route, it goes through different Sherpa villages like Lukla, Namche, Tengboche, and Dingboche, and reaches to famous Everest Base Camp. Along the Everest Trekking Trail, delightful views of mountains, tranquil villages, farmlands, landscapes, and Himalayan Wildlife can be experienced.

After discovering the EBC and Kala Pathhar, trailhead back to Lobuche and lead towards High Camp. A pre-climbing training session will be held before the summit day. The next day, the summit will start early in the morning and after ascending to the Top, you will climb down to Pheriche. Like these, the Lobuche East Peak climbing with EBC concludes at Lukla.

Hike from Lobuche High Camp to Summit

After completing the trek to Everest Base Camp, the final stretch will be from the High Camp to the summit. The pathway from high camo is steep as you get closer to the ascent. Climbers must navigate the trail via a snow ridge and move to the northwest where there will be a lot of snow slashes. From these snow slashes, you will ascend to the summit and admire the views from the top of Lobuche East Peak.

Cost of Lobuche Peak Expedition for 2024/2025
