PEAK CLIMBING IN NEPAL

The Trekking Peaks of Nepal gives recreational-climbers an opportunity to tackle a high Himalayan peak without having to be part of a  major organized expedition. Although these peaks are lower than their more famous cousins - the 8000-meter peaks - many of the climbs are no less demanding and adventurous in nature. By Himalayan standards these are considered minor peaks, but in fact some of them are relatively challenging snow and Ice climbing of high standard. They are rated as trekking peak by elevation and not by technical difficulty.

Island Peak Base Camp Island Peak route

 3 BASE CAMPS and 2 SUMMITS in one trip!

Our Everest Base Camp Trek and our Mt. Pumori base camp treks are no more than high altitude walks.  If you want to push higher, bring the crampons and ice axe and add a spectacular Island Peak climb to 6189m to your itinerary. Participants must be in good physical condition. Since previous climbing experience is not essential, having some outdoor background will be useful. Moreover, in order to ensure a safe climbing trip, you are provided basic knowledge on  handling ropes as well as about other climbing equipment before starting the actual summit.
