Island Peak which is also known as the Imja Tse in the local tongue is one of the famous climbing peaks of Nepal, as it lies in the Khumbu region, a gateway to Mt. Everest. Island Peak is very popular for the trekkers heading towards the Everest Base Camp Trek and also for the expedition group who wish to summit the highest mountain of the world Mt. Everest.

Furthermore, during the expedition season, we will be able to scale the Island Peak with the Everest Summiteers, as this peak is also used by the Everest summiteers as an acclimatization day and also as a training peak before the summit.

This will be a great choice for the climbers to encounter with the expedition group, and in terms of the views of the surrounding areas, there is no word to express. The hypnotized views of the surrounding Himalayas including Nuptse, Lhotse, Makalu, and Ama Dablam, and also the Imja Lake from the highest climbing peak will be once in a lifetime experience.
