Trip Facts
Overview
The heavenly views from Mt. Lobuche makes the Lobuche East Peak Climbing one of the most prominent Himalayan Peak. In spite of it being more testing than the adjacent Island Peak climbing, the Lobuche peak climb is a popular package. From the summit, you’ll have the capacity to look out at powerful Everest, and in addition a few crests on the Tibetan side of the Rongbuk. It’s an ordeal you’ll cherish for a lifetime.
We prepare for the Lobuche summit push with a stop at the Everest Base Camp. Here, you’ll learn about mountain life and a lesson on climbing. Our bodies will likewise acclimatize for the thin air on Lobuche! Altitude sickness is something we endeavor to dodge, and our deliberately made schedule is intended for ideal modification.
ACCOMMODATION DURING LOBUCHE EAST PEAK CLIMB
We will be using a 3-4 star hotel in Kathmandu on twin sharing basis and guest house during the trek as well as tented camps for the climbing of Lobuche East Peak.
MEALS & WATER DURING LOBUCHE EAST PEAK CLIMB
On all treks & Climbs, we provide standard breakfast, lunch and three-course dinner, tea or coffee will also be included with each meal. Your guide will help with menu selection and ensure that you get the best value meals possible. Although the food is usually plentiful and delicious, you should be aware that the menu is not normally extensive.
Most teahouses offer a variety of rice and noodle dishes, as well as soup and seasonal vegetables. A variety of cereals, bread and egg dishes are generally available for breakfast. There will also be plenty of snacks available such as biscuits, chocolate, and soft drinks and in some areas, you will find fresh fruit in season. You can buy bottled mineral water from local lodges and shops en route or you can also ask your guide to fill your water bottle with boiled water and treat with water purification pills.
BEST TIME OF YEAR FOR LOBUCHE EAST PEAK CLIMB
The best season to trek in the Himalaya region is autumn (from mid-September till November’s end), and spring (from the beginning of March until mid-May). Since temperatures drop considerably as you trek higher every day, it can get very chilly. The nights are cold (between -10 degrees C to 0 degree C but the days are sunny and hot (between 10 deg C to 20 deg C).
The mornings are usually clear, with clouds building up during the afternoon, disappearing at night. Trekking during the monsoon and winter is not recommended, as the visibility during monsoon is limited, upper parts and high passes could be covered with snow during winter. Thus, March, April, October, and November are the most favored months.
