Island Via Kalapathar

Imja Tse (Island peak), 6169m is one of the most popular lesser peaks in Nepal and scaling the mountain you will need some mountaineering skill. From the base camp, a well-acclimatized party in good conditions can make the summit and return to the base camp in a day. However, most of the climbers prefer establishing a High Camp, which helps a safe ascent. From the base camp the route skirts southeast around and base of Imja Tse and climbs steep grassy slopes and small rocky steps. South-West Ridge North Ridge Route are used for climbing Island Peak.
This trip is the same as the Everest treks till your entrance to the Chukkung valley. This trip offers you not only enchanting views of Mt, Everest (8848m.) Lhotse (8516m) Amadablam (6856m.) and numerous others peaks; draws your attention towards monasteries and traditional Sherpa villages. Such a massive glance of the Himalayan peaks can create in you a pleasant wave of internal felicity.
