Lobuche Peak Climbing

Trip code NAP-LPK-212

Lobuche east peak (6119m) lies in the Solukhumbu region and is one of the hardest of the trekking peak in the Everest Region. Lobuche Peak (6119m) was first ascent by Nielson and Ang Gyalzen Sherpa on 25 April 1984. It takes around 7/8 days from Lukla to reach the Lobuche Base Camp.

Lobuche East Peak is recognized as a trekking peak whereas the Lobuche West Peak (6145m/20161ft).is known as an expedition peak. The dark triangle of its rocky East face rises over the moraines of the Khumbu Glacier to an icy skyline. This skyline forms the south ridge, the junction of the east face with the glaciated south-west face and the line of the normal route of ascent. This in turn leads to the summit ridge running north-west from the top of East face through several small summits to form the south ridge. The true East Peak is quite striking and is reached by descending into a marked notch and climbing steep snow/ice slopes to the top. Top is exposed and often covered with rotten ice. In order to attempt climbing Lobuche East one needs to be physically fit and should have knowledge of mountaineering climbing.

This trip start with Kathmandu valley sightseeing by experienced tour guide and flight to Lukla then we follow Everest base camp Trekking route Lukla, Namche bazaar, Tyanboche and up to Pheriche and then trekking to Thugla. The base camp will be set up at 4,950m, near a lake in a rocky hollow at the base of the glaciated South-West Face. The views of Amadablam, Cholaste, Thamserku, Kantega peak and Tawache peak are superb view from here. You climb steep stone terraces and snow slopes just below the main glaciers on the South-West Face of Lobuche East. You climb steep snow and ice slopes using fix ropes and get access to the ridge overlooking Lobuche and the Khumbu Glacier where we fix the high camp. You follow the sharp snow ridge to the summit ridge.
