Discover the journey
Mount Lobuche is lies in eastern Nepal close to the Khumbu glacier. There are two main peaks, Lobuche East (6119 m) and Lobuche West (6145 m). The peaks are separated by a long deeply notched ridge, however a step drop and considerable distance makes approaching the West peak from the East impossible. Lobuche peak is a most popular climbing peak in the Everest region. It was first climbed on 25 April 1984. On the way to Lobuche, we can enjoy the stunning view of Mt. Everest & surrounding mountains from Kalapattar. Lobuche peak climbing is technically difficult, it provides the glory of being on the top of the world i.e. the Everest Base Camp and experience the climbing adventure of a peak that stands right on Lobuche- the last settling region on the way to the Everest Base Camp. Lobuche East peak summit can be reached with some degree of difficulty by gaining the notch with a descent followed by a climb of steep snowy slopes to the amazing top. Climbing Lobuche is a quite strenuous, as you climb to the peak, the panoramic views of Mt. Everest, Mt. Pumori, Khumbu Himal, the Khumbu icefall, Mt. Tawache will be a blessing.
