The Island Peak Climbing with EBC Trek combines the classic Everest region walk with a challenging climb to the top of a snow-capped Himalayan mountain. Island Peak (6,189m) is locally known as Imja Tse and located in Chhukung Valley. The climb does not require technical experience but clients should have an excellent level of fitness for this adventure, which involves some glacier and snow climbing. Our trek and climb embark from the Lukla airport, following a short, scenic flight from Kathmandu. We walk through Sagarmatha National Park, enjoying the beautiful scenery as well as traditional Sherpa villages.
