About Three Peaks in Everest Region

Three Peaks in Everest Region is a physically and mentally challenging adventure through the Khumbu Valley. Climbing Three Peaks in Everest Region is a great way to experience the beauty and challenge of the Khumbu Himalaya. Our Three Peaks in Everest Region combines three of the highest trekking peaks in Nepal: Mera Peak (6,476 m), Island Peak (6,189 m), and Lobuche East Peak (6,119 m). It is a physically demanding trip but also an enriching experience that takes you through the stunning Khumbu region of Nepal, making this trip an adventure of a lifetime.

Mera Peak is the highest permitted trekking peak in the Everest region and offers stunning views of the surrounding mountains, including Mount Everest (8848.86m). Island Peak (Imja Tse) is one of the most popular trekking peaks in the Khumbu region, well known for its challenging climb, and Lobuche East Peak is one of the most challenging trekking peaks in the Khumbu region, offering panoramic views of the Everest massif.

Mera Peak (6476m / 21,247 ft.)

At an elevation of 6,476 meters, Mera Peak is an excellent pick for those looking for their first climbing experience in the Himalayas of Nepal. It provides an opportunity to explore the untouched beauty of the Everest region while challenging yourself physically and mentally, offering a stimulating yet achievable climbing experience in Nepal Himalaya. The climb to the summit of Mera Peak offers spectacular views of the surrounding mountains, including Mount Everest (8,848.86 m), Mount Lhotse (8,516 m), Mount Cho Oyu (8,201 m), Mount Makalu (8,463 m), and Mount Kanchenjunga (8,586 m).

Island Peak (6189m / 20,305 ft.)

Island Peak (Imja Tse), at 6,189 meters, is an exciting and challenging climb in the Khumbu Himalaya. It is a moderately technical trekking peak in the Everest region of Nepal. However, it is still within reach of the average fit person who wants a genuine high-altitude climbing experience on snow and ice. The climb is graded as 2B in difficulty, requiring some technical skills and experience. The summit of Island Peak offers stunning views of the surrounding mountains, including Everest (8,848.86 m), Nuptse (7,861 m), Lhotse (8,516 m), Ama Dablam (6,812 m), and other snowy peaks.

Lobuche East Peak (6119m / 20,075 ft.)

Challenge yourself with the most demanding and technical trekking peak in the Everest Three Peak Climbing trip: Lobuche East Peak Climbing. Lobuche East Peak, at 6119 meters, is a challenging 6,000-meter mountaineering experience requiring basic rock and ice climbing techniques at high altitudes. The climb is steep and exposed, with some technical sections requiring crampons and ice axes. Climbers must also be acclimatized to the high altitude, which can be a challenge in itself. However, the rewards of summiting Lobuche Peak are great as one can relish the panoramic views of the surrounding peaks, including Mount Everest (8848.86m), Cho Oyu (8188m), and Ama Dablam (6812m).

Three Peaks in Everest Region Route Overview

Our Three Peaks Climbing in Everest Region Expedition begins with a scenic flight from Kathmandu to Lukla. After a short yet spectacular flight to Lukla, we descend to Paiya, where we will spend the first night of our journey. The trail leads through forests down to the traditional villages of Surke and Pakhepani, along with rhododendron forests on the way. The advantage of doing this trek from Paiya is that it allows you enough time to get adequately acclimatized to Khare. From Khare, we begin the climbing part. The route to Mera Peak Base Camp, followed by High Camp, goes via Mera La. Only the last 30 or 40 meters to the summit require fixed lines. From the summit, you get surreal views of the over-8000-meter-mountains including Mt. Everest (8848.86m), Mt. Lhotse (8516m), Mt. Cho Oyu (8201m), Mt. Makalu (8463m), Mt. Kanchenjunga (8586m), to name a few.

Descending from the summit of Mera Peak, the route turns east at the Mera La into the Upper Hongu Valley. Upon reaching Paanch Pokhari (5 Divine Lakes), we prepare ourselves to tackle one of the toughest objectives of the expedition, the Amphu Labsta pass (5700m). The succession of ice steps up to the rocky crest calling for a fixed line. From the top, we have to make a 35-meter abseil to reach fixed ropes for the next 300 meters of steep switchback descent on snow and rock.

After the Amphu Labtsa pass, we re-enter the Khumbu Valley. We will set up a Base Camp in the Imja Valley via Chhukung and prepare to summit Island Peak. We will march towards Island Peak via the standard route, directly beneath the massive southwest face of Lhotse (the fourth-highest mountain in the world). Though lower in altitude than Mera Peak, Island Peak is slightly more technical and challenging. The ascent involves an easy scramble up to a rock ridge and then onto a glacier, where fixed lines are used to climb the 45-degree snow slopes leading to the exposed summit ridge. The panoramic Himalayan view from the Island Peak summit includes Mt. Lhotse, Mt. Nuptse, Makalu and Mt. Ama Dablam. After relishing the view, we'll return to Chhukung Valley and join the Classic Everest Base Camp trail at Dughla (Thukla).

Finally, we head towards our expedition's last but equally challenging objective, i.e., Lobuche Peak. We practice glacier and snow climbing with our Sherpa Climbing Guide while our staff establishes a High Camp at 5400 meters. To reach the summit from High Camp, we cross over steep stone slabs, which may be covered with ice and snow. To reach the proper summit ridge, we have to ascend 50m on a 45-degree snow wall. We use fixed ropes for the climb, and eventually, the sharp snowy ridge to the first summit can be witnessed. There is a descent which you may need to rappel down before the final sharp ascent to the summit. We appreciate the astonishing view of some of the most incredible mountains on earth from the summit.

Returning back to Lukla

After scaling the Three 6000M+ Trekking peaks, we descend back to Lobuche, followed by our trail down to Tengboche, Namche and then Lukla. The descent helps your body adjust gradually to the thicker air at lower altitudes, reducing the risk of altitude-related problems. Upon reaching Lukla, our trip officially comes to an end. Celebration for a successful summit can be done on that evening at Lukla. Three Peak Climbing in Everest Region is an unforgettable experience that will challenge you physically and mentally. It is an excellent opportunity to explore the pristine beauty of the Everest region and to summit three of Nepal's most Popular Trekking Peaks.

Returning to Lukla by Helicopter

Flying on a helicopter to return to Lukla after your Three Peaks Climbing is a great way to end your adventure. Traffic jams are common along the EBC (Everest Base Camp) trekking trail, especially from Pheriche to Lukla, where trekkers and yaks carrying loads converge.The scenic flight offers stunning views of the mountains and can save you a lot of time. Helicopter shuttle service is available from all prominent Sherpa settlements (Pheruche, Lobuche, etc.)

Best Season for Three Peak Climbing in Everest Region

The weather in the Himalayan Region changes regularly, bringing new seasons. Each season brings with it different temperatures, perceptibility, and challenges. Therefore, it is crucial to be aware of the seasons before climbing the Three Peaks in Everest Region.

The best time for the Three Peaks Expedition is Autumn (September to November). The weather is pleasant and stable during this time, with clear skies and low rainfall. Spring (March to May) is also an excellent time to climb, as the weather is similar to autumn. Winter can be a great time to climb if you are well-prepared for the cold weather. The best winter months to climb Mera Peak are early December and late February when the weather is driest and coldest.

      Useful Info

      Tipping Guides and Porters for Three Peaks in Everest Region

      Tipping is a common practice in the trekking and climbing industry in Nepal. It is a way to show appreciation for the hard work, dedication, and assistance of guides and porters. While it is not mandatory, it is customary and greatly appreciated. It is expected to give tips at the end of the trek when you say goodbye to your guides and porters. If you need help with how much to tip, you can check our Tips for Tipping page.

      Three Peaks in Everest Region Difficulty Level

      The difficulty level of the Three Peaks Expedition varies depending on the individual's fitness level, weather conditions, route choice, personal fitness level, and prior experience.

      Mera Peak Difficulty Level

      Although the Mera Peak climb is not technically challenging, it requires good physical fitness and endurance due to the high altitude and the demanding nature of high-altitude trekking. This includes long and challenging days of trekking, often in harsh weather conditions. Therefore, we recommend our guests have previous trekking experience at high altitudes and be comfortable with multi-day trekking and camping.

      Island Peak Difficulty Level

      Despite being lower in altitude than Mera Peak, Island Peak is slightly more technical and challenging. The route to Island Peak is technically challenging, requiring climbers to cross crevasses on ladders and use fixed ropes to reach the summit. The final 150 meters (Ice Head Wall) is the most challenging section, which is steep and exposed. Climbers must be in excellent physical condition, well-acclimatized, and adequately equipped to summit Island Peak, which can take 10-14 hours, depending on the individual’s pace.

      Lobuche East Peak Difficulty Level

      The difficulty level of Lobuche Peak Climbing is moderate. It is, undoubtedly, a challenging climb, but it requires a different level of technical expertise than an expedition peak. The climb to Lobuche Peak involves a lot of uphill and downhill walking, as well as some steep sections. You will need to be in good physical condition and have a basic understanding of mountaineering skills, such as using crampons, ropes, and rock and ice climbing techniques at high altitudes.

      Preparation and Training for Three Peaks Climbing in Everest Region

      Preparing to climb the Three Peaks in Everest Region is a thrilling and inspiring endeavour. The Three Peaks (Mera Peak, Island Peak and Lobuche East Peak) above 6000 meters are all challenging climbs. Appropriate preparation (Physical and Mental) is crucial for a successful ascent and safe climbing experiences in Khumbu Himalaya.

      Physical Preparation

      Three Peak Climbing in the Everest Region is a physically demanding adventure that requires a good level of fitness. To prepare, you should focus on cardiovascular exercises like running, hiking, cycling, or swimming to improve your endurance. You should also include strength training exercises to build your leg muscles, core strength, and upper body strength.

      Another important factor is acclimatization. This is the process of adjusting your body to the high altitude. Our itinerary has been designed with enough rest days and gradual altitude gains to allow your body to acclimatize properly. This expedition also involves basic mountaineering techniques, such as crampons, ice axes, and ropes. If you are not already experienced in alpine climbing, taking a mountaineering course is a good idea to learn and sharpen your skills.

      Finally, you should study the weather and temperature conditions in the Everest Region before you go. You can also watch videos of people who have done the Mera Peak expedition before to better understand what to expect.

      Mental Preparation

      Mental preparation is essential for achieving any challenging goal, and conquering three peaks is no exception. Climbers must be mentally prepared to face the physical and emotional challenges of high-altitude mountaineering.

      Here are some tips for mental preparation for Three Peak Climbing in Everest Region:

      Do your Research: Learn as much as you can about the route, the challenges, and the risks involved. This will help you to feel more confident and prepared.

      Build Mental Flexibility: This means being able to adapt to changing circumstances and unexpected challenges. It is important to be able to roll with the punches and not let setbacks derail your progress.

      Maintain a Positive Mindset: This is essential for staying motivated and focused on your goal. Focus on the positive aspects of the challenge and remind yourself of why you want to achieve it.

      Believe in Yourself: Confidence is key to success in any endeavour. Believe in your ability to overcome the challenges and reach your goal.

      Connect with Others: Talk to other climbers, read books and blogs, and join online communities. This can help you to gain insights and support from people who understand what you are going through.

      Successfully three peaks in Everest

      - Reto Kaufmann, Switzerland

      3 peaks in the Everest region. 
      Did the 3 peak (Mera, Island and Lobuche East) climb with Annapurna Foothills. Everything was very well organised. Ngima and Dawa were always very fast with answering questions beforehand and once in Nepal everything was taken care of. From transfers to gear checking and much more. Because we had bad weather when trying to fly to Lukla (people were stuck for 3 days), Dawa quickly arranged other means of (adventurous) transport so we wouldn't miss the start of our tour. Once we met up with our porters and guides, the real adventure began. Our climbing guide Mingmar and Dawa arranged everything during the trek (Mingmar even baked a birthday cake!) and our porters were more than amazing! The porters are not allowed to carry too much weight (15kg per guest) and were handed warm clothes, socks and boots before the trek. All of them made sure we had the best possible experience in Nepal. Still don't know how Mingmar got me up all 3 mountains :-). It was an absolutely beautiful trek with remote valleys, stunning views and absolutely lovely people. Would definitely recommend Annapurna Foothills for any of your trips to Nepal!! Ngima, Dawa, Mingmar and porters, thanks again for this amazing experience!

      Best Nepal experience I could imagine...

      Oct 2023 • Solo

      I spend almost two months in Nepal in 2023. I Booked two trips with Annapurna Foothills, I spend a week in the Langtang Valley and did the Three Peaks trek in the Everest Region. Both the trips were great, beautiful scenary, great guides and porters, everything perfectly arranged. But Annapurna Foothills did so much more. I can honestly say that from the day I landed until the day I left they took care of me. Arranging pick-ups from the airport, booking bustickets and domestic flights, arranging my trip to Chitwan etc etc. Nigma is wife Tenzin and Dawa are the most lovely people you can imagine, I am so happy I met them and I learned so much from them about Nepal and Nepali culture. So if you are thinking about taking a trip to Nepal don't hesitate to book with them!
