Stand atop one of Nepal’s most iconic peaks with the Island Peak Climb from Chhukung (Group Tour)—a classic challenge for mountaineers and trekking enthusiasts. Known locally as Imja Tse (6,160 m), Island Peak earned its evocative name for its island-like appearance amid a sea of glacial ice, first noted by Eric Shipton’s 1953 expedition. This group trek is crafted for young adults and experienced climbers eager to test their endurance and savor jaw-dropping Himalayan scenery.
Guided by experts, you’ll journey through a landscape dominated by the likes of Lhotse, Nuptse, Makalu, and the unmistakable silhouette of Everest itself. The best seasons—spring and autumn—offer optimal conditions for both the climb and the sweeping views from the summit. The route features a blend of trekking and technical climbing, with the snowy west face of Island Peak providing a dramatic backdrop for the ascent.
Beyond the challenge, the trip’s USP is the camaraderie of a small group tour, offering support, shared triumphs, and a sense of community often missing from solo endeavors. For those seeking a memorable Himalayan adventure and a taste of high-altitude mountaineering, this tour package is an unbeatable introduction.
The local guide was fantastic, but do NOT book through this website. Book in person and you will pay a third of the price.
This is an excellent trip for fit, aspiring mountaineers. It offers scrambling, glacier travel, ascender and rapelling with stunning views of Ama Dablam at sunrise.
We summitted Island Peak on a wonderful day. Everything went smoothly. I had some communication issues on the programme with the guide, the local operator reacted professionnally and solved everything.
