Everest Base Camp And Island Peak Climbing – 20 Days Brief Insight
Peak climbing at Island Peak, combined with a trek to Everest Base Camp in Nepal, offers an incredible adventure through stunning mountains, glaciers, and snow-covered landscapes. The climbing tour is an outdoor adventure that will take you above 6000 meters to see some heavenly views of the mountain range. This trip will lead you to the Everest Base Camp (5,364m) and then to the Island Peak (6189m).
As we know climbing Mount Everest is not a piece of cake for everyone, as it is very time-consuming, physically demanding, and very costly. For those looking for a second option, Island Peak climbing can be the perfect alternative for adventure lovers and mountaineering enthusiasts.
The EBC with Island Peak Climbing, is far from a normal trek or a peak climbing. The trek allows one to explore the superior Mt.Everest (8848m). Our itinerary will help you throughout the whole trek and assist you with every dos and don’ts making sure you have a tension-free tour around the Himalayas.
The peak climbing will also allow trekkers to experience the renowned Sagarmatha National Park which is also listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site. Along the way, you’ll see rich Sherpa culture as you will see Tibetan Monasteries like the Tengboche Monastery. The journey will take you through many villages and places like Namche, Tengboche, Dingboche, Gorekshep, Everest Base Camp, and Chhukung.
If one has experience in hiking or trekking, this can be a plus point during the trek as the trip is not as easy as the other popular treks. Altitude sickness on the other hand can be a problem that can affect your health along with the trek.
The trek will start with a scenic flight to Lukla followed by a hike to Phakding. Likewise, the trek will end with a return flight to Kathmandu as we bid farewell to our fellow trekker who chose us for the trek.

When is the Best Time for Everest Base Camp And Island Peak Climbing?
For Island Peak climbing, spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) are usually the best seasons. The weather is usually more steady throughout these months, with clearer skies and ideal climbing conditions.
Autumn brings crisp views and pleasant temperatures, while spring brings blossoming rhododendrons and rich landscapes.
Base Camp often experiences daytime highs of around freezing to ten degrees Celsius and nighttime lows of below freezing. The temperature will be much lower on the mountain, and the wind chill will make it feel even colder. It’s critical to be appropriately dressed, equipped, and ready for any changes in the weather.
Because of the high rains and possibly dangerous conditions, climbing is usually discouraged during the monsoon season, which runs from June to August.
