The Island Peak is an extension of a peak coming down from the southern side of Lhotse Sar. The first successful expedition was made by an expedition group from Switzerland in 1956 AD as a practice before climbing Mount Everest. For more than ten years, Island Peak has remained the favorite choice among mountaineers and trekkers alike. it is a perfect trekking peak to climb if you are looking for just the right balance of fun and adventure. Reaching the top of Island Peak is an incredibly gratifying moment as we will be able to see the majestic view of the Himalayan Shangri La, the whole mountain ranges of the Khumbu region. The substitute route to reach the top of the peak is from High Camp which is situated at a height of 5,600 m. The peak is the most noteworthy trekking peak in the whole eastern Himalayan range due to its glaciated west face rising from the very big Lhotse Glacier.
The campaign to climb Island Peak will be around 20 days long and the point of highest altitude during the trek will be 6,189m, the height of the peak itself. The nights will be spent in camps, motels and tea-houses depending on the region. On average, we will walk around seven hours per day and on some days the hours will be extended to up to eight hours. We will cover a distance of 10 kilometers on average per day. Before climbing the Island Peak we will trek through two iconic destinations in the Everest region, Everest Base Camp at an altitude of 5,087m and Kala Patthar. From here, we can have the most magnificent view of Mount Everest and other 8,000m above peaks like Kanchenjunga, Makalu, Mt Cho Oyu among others. The best months to go for peak climbing in the region is from February to May and from September to October.
