Trip Highlights
Embark on a 15-days journey of awe-inspiring beauty and exhilarating challenges with the Everest Base Camp Trek with Island Peak Climbing. This expedition offers a perfect blend of breathtaking mountain vistas, fascinating villages, ancient Tibetan Buddhist monasteries, and the warm hospitality of the Sherpa people, enriching your experience at every turn.
Starting with a thrilling flight to Lukla at 2,800m, the adventure begins. Island Peak Climbing (6189m), also known as Imja Tse, awaits your ascent. Nestled in the upper Imja Valley of the Khumbu region, this glaciated Island Peak and Everest Base Camp Trek offers a stunning backdrop of towering Himalayan giants, including the South Face of Lhotse, Makalu, and Baruntse. Island Peak's history intertwines with that of Everest, named by Eric Shipton in 1952 and conquered by members of the 1953 British Everest team as a training climb.
The journey unfolds amidst spectacular landscapes, with highlights including the incredible mountain views from Chukung (4730m) and Kala Patthar. Known as "The Ultimate Trek," this expedition showcases the best of the Khumbu region, immersing you in the rich culture and traditions of the Sherpa people, whose warmth and hospitality are sure to capture your heart.
The Island peak and Everest base camp hike is both challenging and achievable, making it suitable for beginning alpine climbers. The summit ridge of Island Peak climbing with EBC offers a truly magical experience, with breathtaking views that epitomize the allure of the Himalayas.
Yes, you can see Mount Everest from Island Peak (Imja Tse). While Island Peak itself is not as high as Everest, it offers stunning views of the surrounding peaks, including the southern face of Mount Everest, Lhotse (which is directly adjacent to Everest), and other famous mountains like Makalu, Ama Dablam, and Nuptse.
The best views of Everest are from higher elevations during the ascent of Everest base camp and island peak hike, especially from its summit at 6,189 meters (20,305 feet). However, the view of Everest is not as direct or iconic as it is from other viewpoints in the region, like Kala Patthar or Gokyo Ri.

Climbing Island Peak (6,189m) is moderately difficult and requires basic mountaineering skills, including using crampons, ropes, and an ice axe. While it’s a popular trek for beginners in Himalayan climbing, the altitude and steep, icy sections near the summit make it challenging. Acclimatization and physical fitness are essential.
It takes about 40-60 days to reach Everest’s summit from Base Camp. This includes time for acclimatization, setting up higher camps, and waiting for suitable weather conditions.
No, you can't see the peak of Mount Everest directly from Everest Base Camp. The view is blocked by other peaks, like Nuptse. However, trekkers can get clear views of Everest from nearby viewpoints, like Kala Patthar.
The Everest Base Camp trek is moderately challenging, requiring good physical fitness due to high altitudes, rugged terrain, and long daily hikes of 5–7 hours. Altitude sickness can be a risk, so acclimatization is essential. No technical climbing skills are needed, making it accessible to prepared and determined trekkers.
