Imjatse and Kalapattar
A challenging trek, the Island Peak trek is a fantastic mountain experience amongst the highest peaks in the world.


Our unique itinerary takes you into the high valleys of the Khumbu region, land of the Sherpas, providing magnificent views of the awesome Khumbu peaks as you acclimatize for the trekking ahead. We have the opportunity to conquer Imjatse Peak on this high mountain trek.

Our adventure begins with a short flight to Lukla and two days of easy walking to Namche Bazaar, the busy trading town of the Sherpas. You will continue on through colourful Sherpa villages, taking time to explore this magnificent valley. Our camp at Gorakshep (5160m) provides time to walk up to Kalapattar (5545m) for classic views of Everest’s southwest face, Lhotse, Nuptse and the Khumbu icefall. From here we proceed to Dingboche valley and the Imjatse Peak base camp for our summit of the mountain. Whilst Imjaste Peak is well within the capabilities of any fit and determined trekker, it can be demanding and requires some basic climbing experience.


The trek descends along the Khumbu Classic route via Tengboche and Namche, to Lukla. We fly back to Kathmandu the following day.
