Lobuche East peak is one of the popular trekking
peaks in Nepal to climb, located in Everest Khumbu
Himalayan range. This peak is an attractive summit and
offers various routes for climbing. The normal route for
climbing is through South Ridge. Lobuche east peak
consists of several small summits and the true summit
requires climbing steep snow and ice slopes to the top
from the summit ridge.
We follow the traditional Everest base camp trekking route up to Pheriche and then to Dughla.
A base camp will be
established at 4,950m near a lake at the
base of the glaciated Southwest Face. The views of Amadablam, Cholaste, Thamserku, Kantega peak and Tawache
peak are superb from here. We climb steep stone terraces
and snow slopes just below the main glaciers on the
Southwest Face of Lobuche East. From there we climb steep snow and
ice slopes using fix ropes to gain access to the ridge
overlooking Lobuche and the Khumbu Glacier. We
follow the sharp snow ridge to the summit ridge. Then we
follow the route to north-west towards the main summit
passing several small snow bumps and reach a notch
before further climbing the steep and difficult
snow slopes to the true summit. The peak can also be climbed
from East Face by climbing a dark pyramid of rock and
join the South Ridge to get to the summit.
