Island Peak Expedition Summit a 6000m+ Himalayan Peak.

A fantastic introduction to climbing in the Himalayas. Take an Everest Base Camp trek to the next level by tackling a 6000m+ peak as part of a fully-guided expedition. No previous experience is necessary, we’ll teach you everything you’ll need to know.

During this 23-day trip, you’ll combine the classic Everest Base Camp trek and ascent of Kala Patthar, with a summit of Imja Tse (Island Peak) at a height of 6189m. The peak itself lies to the south of Everest, an Island set in a sea of ice from the Imja and Lhotse glaciers.

As you start the early-morning ascent from Island Peak high-camp, the surrounding peaks of Lhotse, Lhotse Shar, Nuptse and Ama Dablam – all beautifully lit by the rising sun – provide one of the most spectacular sights imaginable. A perfect start to an epic day in the Himalayas.
