Overview

Lobuche Peak which has two major summits: Lobuche East (6,119m) and Lobuche West (6,145m) is close to the Khumbu Glacier within Everest region. Both of the summits are regarded as the most captivating and difficult peaks in the Everest region. In comparison to Lobuche East, Lobuche West Peak is regarded as one of the hardest and most technically difficult trekking peaks. The Khumbu glacier and Lobuche Peak are close together, and they both share the route to Everest base camp. This peak gives you the stunning views of the Himalayan mountain ranges including Everest, Makalu, Lhotse, Nuptse, Ama Dablam, and others. 

Lobuche peak climbing is the best reward to those interested in  climbing the himalayas. At Lobuche base camp you will be trained by the local Sherpas about the climb and the use of climbing gears. This peak climbing will train your mind and body for Everest climbing, Manaslu (the killer mountain), K2, Kanchenjunga,  Makalu and many others. Remember, the Lobuche Base Camp and Lobuche Village share the same territory. You can understand the culture and lifestyle of the people in the mountains (Sherpa People). 

Physical Fitness to climb Lobuche Peak

Climbing the Lobuche summit requires a high level of physical fitness. It's because the trek is significantly more difficult and this is a grade 5 peak. The first thing you must know is you should be in good physical condition and free from any kind of disabilities and injuries. The climber must be knowledgeable on how to use the tools and equipment and should have high coordination with the team members and Sherpas. Remember you must maintain constant pace and good confidence to tackle the mountain environment. 

Emergency Rescue during the trek/climb

If there are any severe altitude issues/altitude sickness, we  advise you to go back to a lower altitude and relax. If the situation is more serious, our team will set up a helicopter rescue as far as possible. The Himalayan Rescue Association (HRA), in Khumbu region in particular, will help you with medical care. This  is a voluntary non-profitable organization established in 1973 with the goal of lowering fatalities in the Nepal Himalayas.
