Description

The stunning peak just a few kilometers away from the Mt. Everest is the Lobuche peak, also known as lobuje peak. This peak lies just above the Lobuche village in the Khumbu Region. Lobuche gives you two stunning summits, Lobuche East (6,119 meters) and Lobuche Far East (6,145 meters). Both peaks are equally exciting and with technical trails for both the amateurs and explorers.

The trek gives you a breathtaking view of Namche Bazar, Lhotse along with the Lobuche village, and the mighty Everest itself. The route starts from the famous Namche Bazar. The journey gives you the view and feel of untouched beauties of Nepal. Some of them are the Tengboche monastery, Pangboche, and Dingboche; the highest Sherpa village, and the gateway to Island Peak. Short hiking to Gorak Shep Village comes with the classic trek to the Everest Base Camp. Trek to the Kalapattar is set up for the valuable moment of sunrise and the surrounding mountains. With all the excitement, the most awaited climb comes to the rise. Leaving the base camp comes the second part of the expedition, the high camp, and finally the summit.

This trek welcomes you with the warmness of the culture of Sherpa people and the unlimited snowy covered mountains. The best seasons for this exciting trip are spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November). It is suitable for both climbers and amateurs.
