About Everest Base Camp & Island Peak
Our 23-day itinerary first takes you on the historic trek through the Khumbu Valley to Everest Base Camp (5,385m) offering the best possible acclimatisation profile before we turn our attention to Island Peak. We move upwards through the valley at a slow, steady pace taking the time to meet the locals in the villages we pass and absorb the sights and scents of traditional Nepalese life. We stay in locally run tea-houses each night, enjoying the warm welcome of our hosts and the inviting heat of the stove as we remove our boots after a long day’s trekking.

After spending our first 10 days trekking to Everest Base Camp we will be ‘trek fit’, acclimatised to life to on the trail and prepared for our ascent of Island Peak (6,189m). Island Peak was named in 1953 by the Everest expedition team who could see the peak from Dingboche where it appeared as an island floating in a sea of ice. Climbing Island Peak has since been used by many mountaineers as a preparation peak before summitting Everest.
