Climbing Lobuche Peak is tough but loved by many climbers. The journey starts in Kathmandu, where you’ll visit UNESCO World Heritage Sites before flying to Lukla. From there, you trek through Sherpa villages like Namche Bazaar, Tengboche, and Dingboche, heading towards Everest Base Camp.

Along the way, you’ll see stunning views and cultural attractions. After reaching Lobuche village, you’ll head to Lobuche High Camp for the final climb. This part is challenging, with steep slopes and exposed ridges. You’ll need climbing gear like ropes, ice axes, and crampons.
