Island Peak Climbing with EBC Trek

We take an exciting flight to Lukla to begin the Island peak with an Everest base camp trek.

In particular, we customize a special climbing training session at the base camp. Indeed, the training covers required climbing skills to scale the summit safely and successfully.

Summit day to stand at 6189 m in the Himalayas

Significantly the summit day starts very early in the morning with an interesting scramble along a rock ridge to a glacier. Furthermore above the rock ridge, there is a steep snow headwall leading to the summit. Of course, this is a physically challenging but a great day of achievement. Obviously, our permanent and highly experienced climbing guides fix NEW ropes. Thus ensure safe ascent with Jumar and harness for the strenuous and challenging section. The ultimate climb up a 60 - 70 degree faces about 150 meters to the summit ridge.

FAQs

  • Q1. Heard Lukla to be world's dangerous airstrip? Is there any alternative?

    There are possibilities of flight delays and sometimes cancellations as Nepal air aviation is quite strict about these small planes flying high into the remote mountain airstrips like Lukla. Though Lukla happens to be the settlement hidden inside the magnificent valley the airport would be momentarily closed whenever there is the slightest weather chaos or high-velocity winds. So there is no need to fear flying in or out of Lukla. To deal with the bad weather situation we have inbuilt the itinerary with 2 night stay back in Kathmandu. We welcome the idea of having a few more days extra in Kathmandu if you afford to explore it after the trip. People have so many legends about flying in and out of Lukla but in reality, this 35 minutes flight is indeed very breathtaking rather than it being bloodcurdling. Taking a group helicopter flight at an extra cost could be an option in case of bad weather. Recently build a road to the Everest region close to Lukla also gives an option to drive in or out of the Everest region.

  • You always reserve the right to modify the climbing itinerary as per the time convenient to you and the level of fitness. Depending on your schedule you can either book for the whole circuit via the high passes (Renjo pass, Chola pass) or semi circuit that includes Gokyo, Chola Pass, and Everest base camp or you can simply do Everest base camp and Island peak. Mountain Monarch has always been customizing the trip as per the clients' requirements. We are happy to customize this Imj Tse peak climbing trip as per your requirements and time duration. Let us know.

  • To be honest Island peak can be attempted all through the year except for the Monsoon. However, April to mid-June during spring and September to November during autumn before the harsh winter is considered to be the best time to climb Island peak when the view of 360 degree mountain range and astounding landscapes are at their best state.

    People have without doubt climbed the Island peak even in December despite the serious cold because winters have always offered crystal clear weather with exceptional mountain views. Nevertheless, the 3 nights of camping at Island peak base camp in winter with so much of a chill factor may not be very appealing for many. So winter climbing solely relies on how comfortable you are with the utter cold. All you need to do is prepare for the worst of chill weather circumstances.

  • As for this climbing trip, you would need a special climbing permit along with (Everest) Sagarmatha National Park permits, a TIMS card (trekking information management system), Mountain Monarch obtains all of these permits and travel documents for you.

  • We strongly suggest you have an all-inclusive travel insurance policy covering all the aspects of your adventure though we ensure you that there would be hardly any evacuations or any health catastrophe as your leader is medically trained and has ample knowledge to deal with any life-threatening situation. But it's always wise to have insurance as your backup for just in any case.

  • Being more exceptional unlike the rest of the company, in Island peak base camp we afford solar batteries for lights and charging facility with absolutely no additional charge. However, the charging privilege for any of your electronic devices is possible all the way around the Everest region tea houses but the charges may be levied. Still, it is wise to carry some extra batteries or the fully charged power bank batteries to save some money and also your batteries run out pretty quick in the cold. Availability of hot showers is all through this region with minimum charges but your leader may restrict on taking hot showers at high elevation regarding the health issues. No hot showers in Island Peak base camp but we do provide you with a bowl of hot water for basic cleaning.

  • With the advancement of technology availability of networks in the Nepal Himalayas is miraculous. Mobile and 4G data coverage are available in most areas of Everest including the base camp which is a luxury. Every tea house in the entire region provides you with an internet facility with minimum charges so that you can update your family and friends about your whereabouts. Surprising the Island summit has very great coverage of cell phones.

  • While in the Everest region Mountain Monarch uses the best family-oriented lodges with twin bed sharing rooms with clean common toilets and occasional rooms with attached toilet bathrooms. Lodges are at their best offering you a comfortable experience and its typical local environment. You have a variety of choices for the food and most lodges prepare food better than most restaurants in Kathmandu.

    At the base camp of Imjatse peak base camp our professional cooks' gives their best to vary the menu as much as possible providing nutritious, plentiful, and tasty meals that are hygienically prepared to enthrall you even in the mountains under less than ideal conditions. So far there have not been any complaints whatsoever in regards to food and accommodation provided by us.

  • Usually not more than 6 – 8 hours excluding lunch. As for the time to Island Peak summit and back to base camp, it solely depends on your pace. We allow you enough time to set up your own pace for acclimatization and to make every day more entertaining yet the walking time varies depending on you and your group. We usually start early so that you could reach the destination on time leaving you enough time to explore and enjoy the serenity of the place.

  • Though the Island peak expedition is not technically challenging it is unquestionably physically demanding which is graded as Alpine PD+. Among all the trekking peaks in Nepal, Island is the most popular as it is suitable for all beginners and experienced trekkers which offers a thrilling climbing experience beyond simply trekking in Nepal together with a hike to the world's famous Everest base camp. This strenuous plus expedition rises to an altitude of 6189m / 20,305 feet. However, anyone with sound fitness can join because the altitude and acclimatization process is the major issue than the level of fitness. Mountain Monarch has an itinerary so designed to provide ample time for acclimatization strategy with slow pacing and multiple side excursions.

  • In cases of emergency, the necessary prompt assistance will be available only if you are affiliated with a reputed company. Furthermore, if you are looking for a hassle-free holiday in terms of issuing climbing permits, hotel, flights, and transportation, etc it's best to go with a reputed company that offers you, knowledgeable leaders and professionals. Reputed companies are there to provide you with quality service at a very competitive price and are there to guarantee your safety which I suppose is the biggest concern. Leaders, besides giving you all the necessary information, are there to cater to you at times of any crisis no matter if it’s a mountain ailment or any weather mayhem.

  • Most altitude sickness cases and tragedy has been reported among trekkers in the Everest region trekking and climbing routes. Acute mountain sickness is something we get with rapid ascent and when our body fails to adapt to the thin air environment. Mountain Monarch provides medically professional leaders with medications, oxygen cylinders with regulators, or portable altitude chambers to deal with any altitude-related ailments. Besides, your group leader will put forth some basic guidelines to get away with altitude sickness which is expected to be followed strictly, and as well there are multiple things you can do as precautions to ward off AMS eg taking Diamox, etc. Assistance from your leader is 24/7 until you are away from the danger zone. So far there has not been any record of fatal altitude sickness misfortune with mountain monarch groups.

  • The climbing day is the main day and obviously, it is a tough and long day. We start the climb early in the morning let's say by 2 a m to beat the windy situation and bad weather in the afternoon. Normally we scale the summit of Island peak by 9 am and return to base camp for Lunch. A long day of around 9/10 hours but no doubt the most memorable day.

  • We, Mountain Monarch, have been organizing the Island peak expedition for 2 decades. Every year more than 100 trekkers have scaled the Island peak climbing with us. So far we have managed to get more than an 85% summit success rate.

  • Peaks below 5600 meters are being categorized as “ Trekking Peaks ” in Nepal Himalayas which are comparatively less technical but physically demanding. To join the trekking peak one must have sound physical and mental fitness but no need to have previous climbing experience. To make your climbing experience the safe and best one, we organize the special climbing training course at base camp in which our experienced climbing guide give you the practice training on all aspect of climbing skills required to scale the summit safely and successfully.

  • Mountain Monarch provides you with a very warm sleeping bag with warm fleece liners and feather duvet jackets which are the mother of all warm clothing. We also provide you with an individual waterproof trek Duffle bag to fit all your gears in. No need to buy or hire any expensive climbing gear to join the climbing trip with us, Mountain Monarch provides you the La Sportiva climbing boots, Black Diamond crampons, ice axe, ice bar, ice screw, Jumar, harness, the figure of eight, safety Helmet, plain and locking Carabiners, prussic cord and new climbing rope, etc. Furthermore, unlike many other companies at Island peak base camp, you will be facilitated with a mountain hardware 2 member tent, Exped down-filled mattress, and solar lights with your device charging facility. We use solar energy at the Island peak base camp to go environmentally friendly.

  • Mountain Monarch is renowned for quality service, proper safety backup, responsible travel with details logistic support throughout the trip. We invest in manpower and gear. We have an experience local climbing guide and we provide all the personal and group climbing gear including the climbing boots which means one can join the climbing trip with us with normal trek gear – No need to worry or invest in any of the climbing gear just for one trip.

    Every year we are growing and many of the trekkers and climbers are joining us as they have seen us in action on an earlier trip or have heard the great and reliable service we offer. Adventurers who have joined once with us return with us because they know we do our best to make the trip responsible, safe, and the trip of a lifetime.

  • Island Peak is a strenuous plus trek that involves trekking as well as climbing with all the expedition equipment. Though previous climbing experience certainly helps yet no prior experience is required to join this trip with us. However, anyone with a knee, ankle, heart, or lungs pre-medical history need to seek medical consent before considering Island Peak. Moreover, at the base camp, our climbing Sherpa guide will organize a special climbing training session on required climbing skills and the use of climbing equipment. Pre-physical training is a must to prepare yourself to figure out how many hours or how much weight you can handle. Some Cardio Workouts and a couple of miles of the regular walk will certainly help before you arrive in Kathmandu.

    EBC Trek and Island Peak - April and May 2022

    Wow, where to start! We had such an amazing adventure and Mountain Monarch did amazing in making it all happen. We trekked to Everest Base Camp and paired with Island Peak Climbing. I climbed Island Peak while my wife stayed at Island Peak base camp. Mountain Monarch was such a great company to work with, and we felt completely taken care of the whole way. As promised, they were there patiently waiting at the airport when we arrived in Kathmandu and took us straight to the hotel, which was great and comfortable! We had a half day tour of Kathmandu and our tour guide Ram was amazing and super knowledgeable. Our flight to Lukla to start the trip was smooth and they helped make everything easy. Along the trek, all of the accommodations were set up for us, and we didn't have to do a thing! The accommodations along the way were great. Our guide Netra provided so much peace of mind in keeping us healthy along the way and watching out for our health and wellbeing (like carrying oxygen the whole way)...such a wealth of knowledge around everything from first aid, knowledge of the region, etc, we felt lucky to have him. The assistant guides were also fantastic, we loved Santosh and LB as they took such great care of us. Our Porters were also fantastic, friendly and timely. They always were one step ahead and getting our gear to the next stop. At Island Peak, the camping setup was plush and the food was awesome. The climb was super cool and my climbing guide was right there alongside me the whole time. All in all, it was an amazing experience and Mountain Monarch delivered on everything they said. We felt so good about everything, especially compared to some other trekking companies we came across which just didn't seem as put together. I would absolutely recommend Mountain Monarch to anybody and I would absolutely use them again for future trips to Nepal!!! 5 Stars all around!

    Island Peak with EBC

    Where to start! Before the trip, I did a lot of research on which company to go with. Lots appeared to have mixed reviews or something about the itinerary which wasn’t quite what I wanted. I came across Mountain Monarch and they ticked every box. Speaking to their owner, Pradip, he was very helpful (and quick) at answering any questions/requests that I had. The reviews are pretty much ALL amazing, so I was a little suspicious! But everywhere you read reviews about them, they are faultless. So I booked on with them. Everything they promised, was delivered with exceptional service. I was picked up at the airport (I had been panicking a little as it took so long to get through the airport customs, but they were patiently waiting outside), then Pradip met me when I arrived at the hotel. The sightseeing was fantastic, led by Ram, the most cheerful and knowledgeable guy I met on the trip! It was a great chance to bond with the group I would be spending the next few days/weeks with (some had differing itineraries). We met our group trekking guide Netra who talked us through the trip. Then the following morning we had an early start to get to Ramenchap. Unfortunately, our Lukla flight was delayed due to weather, but Mountain Monarch arranged a hotel for the night and did all they could. We flew out early the following morning so it was no issue in the long run. Once at Lukla, I met another trekking guide who would stay with me all the way. Ram is an absolute legend! By the end, I would absolutely class him as a good friend. Both Netra and Ram worked so hard to make sure everything went smoothly for us. They always pre-booked our beds for the night, gave us great advice to stay healthy (which I did the whole trip), and were very adaptive to the pace of the whole group. The entire trip was such a great experience, and I can hand on heart say that Mountain Monarch played a big part in that. I will 100% be returning to Nepal, and I will not hesitate to use these guys again. Thank you so much for your hard work, it really makes the difference between a company that just wants your money or a company that wants you to have the best time possible.
