Island Peak is a superb progression peak for Himalayan climbing, allowing an opportunity to experience altitude first-hand and taking your mountaineering skills to new heights while getting to appreciate the inner workings of an expedition to the Himalaya! An ideal expedition for climbers with basic rope handling and technical mountaineering skills. Our accompanying Khumbu Trek option also allows for non-climbing friends and family to join in on the expedition and travel alongside the climbing team. The trip initiates in Kathmandu where we enjoy the diversity of this ancient city before embarking on a flight into the alpine village of Lukla, the entranceway to the Everest region. We approach the mountain following the wide trails of the Khumbu Valley, famous for its fascinating villages and hospitable inhabitants. This ascent will satisfy your desire to progress your Himalayan climbing.
