Lobuche Peak Climb
Lobuche Peak Climb
Lobuche Peak Climb is all about the superb view of the mighty Everest (8848m) and other beautiful mountain peaks. This is one of the most popular Himalayan peaks to climb despite its difficulty level. This climb is quite more challenging than the nearby Island peak. Climbing Lobuche peak is a great combination of trekking to Everest Base Camp and climbing one of the most beautiful peaks of the Everest Region.
Before you get to the summit of Lobuche peak, you hike to the Mount Everest Base Camp and (black rock) Kalapatthar 5550m. During this hike up to EBC and Kalapathar, you get a chance to really experience the local people’s lifestyles and culture. Our expert team, on your trip to Everest Base Camp and Kalapathar, will support you in fulfilling your dream of climbing Lobuche Peak.

We advise travel insurance to all travelers who are interested in trekking in Nepal. Trekking in Nepal is walking on the trail (path) of mountains. In mountain areas, health treatment facilities are not standard. There is less availability of good hospitals and doctors. So if in case the trekker suffers from severe sickness, he should be brought to Kathmandu by helicopter for better treatment. And the helicopter charter fare is expensive in Nepal. If you have already travel insurance, your money will be saved.
When selecting a travel insurance policy we require that at a minimum you are covered for medical expenses including emergency repatriation. We strongly recommend that the policy also covers personal liability, cancellation, curtailment and loss of luggage and personal effects. We, JRN Treks, shall have no liability for loss, theft of or damage to baggage or personal effects.
We also let you know that Nepalese Insurance Company does not have a travel insurance policy for foreign nationals. They have this policy only for Nepalese citizens. So we advise you to select your travel insurance with Insurance Company in your own place.
