Ama Dablam & Lobuche

Submit Review

Overview Itinerary Inclusion Reviews

One of the most beautiful mountains in the world in combination with Lobuche East. The Khumbu region around Mount Everest offers an attractive acclimatization summit – Lobuche East (6119m). Lobuche is a great six-thousander where we will have lots of fun. And it prepares us perfectly for our next challenge. After climbing Lobuche East we will trek to Ama Dablam Base Camp and again arrive well acclimatized for a direct ascent attempt of the beautiful Ama Dablam. Our Sherpa Team sets up the camps and the route for us. Acclimatizing on a different mountain can almost be considered elegant. And it will exponentially increase the value of your experience.
