Overview
Join the Lobuche East Peak (6119 meters) climbing trip led by the team of guides who took their clients to the peak’s summit successfully for the first time after the covid pandemic! This charming peak dominates the southwestern side of the upper Khumbu Valley in the Everest Region. It stands above the small village of Lobuche, set for the trekkers and climbers heading to Everest Base Camp.
The Lobuche Peak consists of two different summits, i.e. East and West, with heights of 6,119 meters (20070ft) and 6,145 meters (20156ft), respectively. A continuous long ridge connects both of them. Lobuche East Peak has been attracting more attention recently as Island Peak, another popular peak in the Khumbu region, is too crowded.
The Lobuche East Peak climbing trip is suitable for beginner to intermediate-level climbers. It is also an acclimatization or warm-up climbing trip for Mt. Everest or Mt. Amadablam Climbers. Our itinerary includes the popular Everest base camp and trekking over Cho La pass via Gokyo Valley. The summit day is of all-day activity that starts early in the morning towards the summit and returns to base camp in the afternoon.
Three Jewels Adventures has guides who have led the clients to the summit in all seasons including blazing the trail for many other groups on some occasions. Please read one of the reviews posted by one of our previous clients, who were part of our Lobuche East Peak Climbing team right after the COVID-19 pandemic here in the link. A thorough information regarding what is required for climbing Lobuche East Peak is also on our blog post. For further details, please, contact us.
