16 reviewsThe Lobuche Peak lies in the beautiful Khumbu region of Nepal. It is excellent for offering spectacular views of the mountain ranges and Everest. A moderately strenuous one, Lobuche Peak climbs climb from the east peak. It stands at а height of 6119 meters, while the west summit has an altitude of 6145 meters. These peaks are separated by а ridge with а considerable distance and hence need to climb separately. Therefore, the most suitable route for the climb is the south ridge of the east face.
The Lobuche peak climbing trek starts with а flight to Lukla, followed by а hike into Phakding. Then, the trail takes you to the famous Namche Bazaar, which has proper lodging facilities. The trekkers further ascend to Tengboche and continue to Dingboche. Dingboche at а height of 4350 m is very suitable for acclimatizing before reaching Thukla. The base camp is at 4915 meters amidst the hypnotic views of the mountain ranges, and another high camp is at а height of 6119 meters. Lobuche summit will climb the next day, accompanied by the beautiful views of the Ama Dablam, Cholatse, Thamserku, Kangtega, and Tawache peaks, as well as Everest.
The climb is steep but highly adventurous and rewarding. Thіѕ peak is а beautiful, offering views of the glaciers and mountains that adore the Khumbu region. The path retraced the same route back to Kathmandu, thus ending the trek. The peak can climb from the west face with the same difficulty level. The Lobuche Peak climbing trek involving more than 6000 m altitudes requires proper acclimatization and physique. This trek is also highly suitable for beginners and pro mountaineers.

I did this trek in Upper Mustang with my sisters, and it was an incredible experience. Everything was very well organized, and we truly enjoyed every part of the journey. I also highly recommend kumar as a guide – he was knowledgeable, helpful, and made the trek even more special. A truly unforgettable adventure!
I did the Phoksundo Lake trek with Kumar and it was a superb experience. It is an adventure, so you have to be willing to step out of your comfort zone, but Kumar always adapts to the unexpected and makes the trip as enjoyable as possible! The landscapes are magnificent, you meet lots of people along the way, and you really push your limits! Kumar is an excellent guide attentive, friendly, and his prices are very fair!
I recently did an annapurna curcit with my brother and his girlfriend. It was an amazing trek with the help of kumar and his team . It was one of the best experience of our life . The annapurna curcit is the best of the treks that people can choose for. I sincerely recommend this company for other travellers.
The 18-day Lower and Upper Dolpo tour was individually tailored to our needs by Kumar. Kumar had put together a great team of guide, cook and mule guide. This team fulfilled all of our wishes at all times during the entire tent trek. Narsang, our guide, is very attentive and careful along the entire route. Kumar is very reliable. He looked after us very well in the preparation and execution of our trek and during our stay in Kathmandu right up to the farewell at the airport. A highly recommended local company when it comes to individually planning a trekking tour. The trip was a great experience. Chris and Hajo
Recently I did EBC Trekking with my Girl Friend and this is my forth time to trek in Nepal with Kumar! Kumar is very professional and helpful. He always arranges all the things well before you asking for. Highly recommended for anyone who is first time to visit Nepal and trek!
H.E.T were professional and helpful for my first trekking in Nepal. Friendly and joyful trek. Thank you for every things. Thank you to lead me there at ABC. It was so wonderful and I couldn't forget this experience.
Our non-profit organisation needed a local tour guide to help with our local guide and logistics. After much research, we engaged with Kumar. During our 4 days trip, Kumar demonstrated excellent local knowledge, punctuality, friendliness. During the trip he never tried to sale us anything. And with a charitable and kind heart, he did not even charge us for this ngo trip. thank you so much.
I was very lucky to have Kumar to arrange our 5 day stay in Nepal. From the pick up at the airport to showing up punctually every morning at the hotel lobby, everything was smooth and hassle free. Kumar is a friendly and kind-hearted gentleman who genuinely wants to help visitors to experience the best of Nepal. Will definitely choose Himalayan Exploration for my next trekking.
Kumar has a very kind heart to help me arranging logistics before and during my volunteer work in Kathmandu. He also guided me with my city tour and mountain trekking after my volunteer work. He can always surprised me with brilliant suggestions.
