Lobuche Peak Climbing

Posted on by Danphe Adventure

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.

Once at the summit, you’ll be rewarded with breathtaking views of Everest and other peaks. After descending, you’ll trek back to Lukla via Pangboche village and Namche. Lobuche Peak is best climbed in spring (Mar-Jun) or autumn (Sep-Nov).

Mountain Trail Nepal offers both group and private trips at reasonable prices. Our experienced Sherpa leaders will guide and support you throughout the journey.
