Dhampus Peak Climbing
Dhampus Peak Climbing is an excellent opportunity for climbers wanting to achieve the less-summited Dhampus Peak while exploring the Annapurna and Mustang region's rich flora and fauna.
Located between the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri Himalayan range, Dhampus Peak (6019 m) is also known as Thapa Peak. The peak is technically straightforward and offers a splendid view of the whole upper Kali Gandaki. From the summit, we’ll have a magnificent view of over thirty different peaks with close views of Tukuche and Dhaulagiri.
The expedition starts after a day drive from Kathmandu to Pokhara. Dhampus Peak can be summited either by short route via Jomsom or by following the entire Dhaulagiri Circuit Trek. Dhampus Peak climbing trail follows several traditional villages, cuts through rhododendron forests and crosses numerous passes with stunning views of the Himalayas. We will have a day safe acclimatization in Dhampus Peak base camp and then we follow a trail on a snow paved slope to a high camp situated at 5600m altitude. From high camp, we continue straight up and follow the snow crest to conquer Dhampus Peak. Return safely back to Jomsom via Yak Kharka and fly to Pokhara to end this awesome peak climbing and trekking experience in the Himalayas.

Island Peak Climbing with Everest Base Camp Trek
Island peak was renamed "Imje Tse" in the early '80s, though its original name, Island Peak, is still more popular. The mountain was named "Island Peak" in 1952 AD due to its striking location in the middle of the Chhukung valley, like an island on a sea of ice. Island Peak has an impressive highly glaciated west face that rises from the Lhotse Glacier which is a bit tough to do, however the magnificent views from the summit are certainly a fitting reward for our efforts.
Island Peak climbing with Everest Base Camp Trek is a fantastic experience in the Himalayas of Nepal. It is designed for energetic and physically fit trekkers with little or no experience in mountain expedition. Island Peak (6,189m/20,305ft) is one of the main climbing peaks in the Everest Region of Nepal with an impressive and highly glaciated West Face that rises from the Lhotse Glacier. Being one of the 'trekking peaks' with very little technical aspects, Island Peak is not a difficult undertaking for a beginner climber wishing to enter the incredible world of mountain climbing. Hundreds of climbers flock to Nepal every year to get a permit for Island Peak climbing. Our adventure also takes us into the heartland of the Khumbu Valley and Sherpa culture. Before scaling the peak, we also visit, possibly the most popular trekking destination in the world - Everest Base Camp (5,357m/17,575ft) and Kala Patthar - for the up-close views of Mt. Everest and other high mountains.
The Island peak climbing itinerary has proper and gradual acclimatization at suitable intervals. The 19-day journey begins from and comes to a conclusion at one of the most famous airstrips in the world, the Lukla Airport in the Everest Region.
Spring (March to May) and Autumn (September to November) are the best months for climbing Island Peak. Although Island Peak can be climbed during winter, the cold temperature might not be suitable for everyone.
We look forward to taking you on a mountaineering experience of a lifetime. Please see the itinerary for a day-by-day overview.

His extensive knowledge of the Nepalese culture, geographical region, and tips for maximizing our enjoyment of the trip was truly remarkable. Apart from the technical aspects of the trek, our guide's ability to create a warm and friendly atmosphere added an extra layer of comfort to our journey. His genuine care and consideration for each member of the group made us feel like a close-knit family, supporting and encouraging each other every step of the way.
As we bid farewell to Nepal, we can't help but feel a deep sense of gratitude towards this agency for their exceptional services. Our adventure would not have been the same without their expertise and dedication. Nepal has left an indelible mark on our hearts, and we eagerly look forward to returning someday for another remarkable experience. And when we do, we will definitely choose them for their impeccable services once again.
