This is the full trekking Himalayan experience, offering an epic loop through the Khumbu region. This Island Peak and Everest Base Camp trek throws in everything from Gokyo’s glacial lakes to the legendary passes of Cho La and Kongma La. After ticking off Everest Base Camp, you’ll swap trekking poles for ice axes as you rope up for the ultimate finale: a climb to the summit of Island Peak at 6,189m. With glacier travel, fixed ropes, ladder crossings, and a knife-edge summit ridge, this is a genuine mountaineering adventure. It’s a journey for those who want it all. Expect epic scenery, a proper challenge, and the unbeatable high of standing above the clouds with the giants of the Himalayas all around you.
