Lobuche East (6119m) Peak is just above the Lobuche village in the Khumbu Region. This peak is only a few kilometres from the world’s highest mountain. Lobuche Peak has two different summits, Lobuche East Peak (6119m) and Lobuche West Peak (6145m).
The route starts from Lobuche village via the South Ridge. The Peaks of Lobuche are dramatic and very similar in geometry, forming a three-ridged pyramid on each. They dominate the view from the Everest Base Camp trek while approaching Lobuche village, at the base of the Southeast shoulder of the Lobuche East Peak. The South and Southeast Ridges form a typical rock triangle extending to the Khumbu Glacier sideways moraine and easily identifiable from the trek and from the hill with stone memorials.
The trek starts from the renowned valley of Lukla, after a short 18-minute spectacular flight from Manthali and follows through the colourful Khumbu Area’s Sherpa villages. Namche Bazaar, the famous ancient trading post between Nepal and Tibet; Tyangboche, with a significant Buddhist monastery set in the backdrop of classic Lhotse view; Pangboche, the highest Sherpa village; and Dingboche, the gateway to Island Peak are the villages passes the trekking trail for the Lobuche Peak Climbing.
