Highlights

Overview

Khumbu region is one of the hardest yet full of risk. In the EBC trek with Lobuche Peak, we will be climbing the tough looking peak during the 18-day trip. If you don't have experienced guides like Roving Nepal Trek, the journey could be much tougher.

Lobuche Peak stands at an altitude of 6119m which is tough to climb for beginners. There are two dimensions to Lobuche climb Lobuche east and Lobuche west. But the major focus is Lobuche East on this trip.

A beginner with no prior experience could hardly do this trip. Internationally EBC trek with the Lobuche peak is termed to be a technically difficult trek. There is much more to know and understand so allow Roving Nepal Trek to enlighten you.

How difficult is the EBC trek with Lobuche Peak?

Just to be very clear EBC trek with Lobuche Peak is a tough trek. You will need to be certain to complete this trek. If the trekkers don't have the right set of experience, it is very difficult to do it.

From technical skills to using tools like crampons, ice axes, ropes, and climbing techniques, trekkers need to be certain of their talent and abilities. This trek lies 7 out of 10 in the difficulty section.

Can Anyone Do an EBC trek with Lobuche Peak?

No, not everyone can do the EBC trek with Lobuche Peak quite easily. To complete this trek you need to have a better trekking experience with high altitude trekking experience. Along with that you also need to have the right mountaineering techniques.

Added to that Roving Nepal Trek wants the trekkers to have the right set of physical fitness and people who can endure tough situations for more than 2 weeks. Although Lobuche isn't fully technical basic technical skills are a must to complete the climb safely.

Best Time To Do EBC Trek with Lobuche Peak

The weather might not play a major part in lots of trekking options in Nepal but EBC trek with Lobuche peak is different. Lobuche peak stands tall at an altitude above 6000m so the best season needs to be calculated.

Spring and autumn seem to be the right time to do the trek safely. With clear blue skies, less pollution, a festival feel and highly welcoming people, the trek goes through as a cakewalk.

But if the trekkers are thinking of winter and monsoon, you are mistaken. Along with the slippery trails, you will not be able to grip all the tools in the mountains during the climb. So choose the right season which is spring and autumn.

Cost of EBC Trek with Lobuche Peak

Any trek that goes into the double-digit number of days gets expensive in the end. This particular trek is also expensive but not one which you couldn't afford.

The exact pricing is tough to predict as the price depends majorly on the quality of service a trekker or a group wishes to have. Even though there are no hidden charges, the cost could be on the higher side.

Roving Nepal Trek has the right amount of cost for the trek. However, it is critical to understand and know tips about the trek. So either call Roving Nepal Trek or visit the office and we will take it from there.

Permits Required for EBC Trek with Lobuche Peak

Similar to the Everest Base Camp trek, some much-needed permits need to be fulfilled. Having said that Roving Nepal Trek does take care of every permit that will be required for domestic and international tourists.

For solo trekkers, you will need a TIMS card along with Sagarmatha National Park Entry Permit. Lastly for Lobuche, you would require the Lobuche East Peak Climbing Permit.

With the permits being arranged by Roving Nepal Trek, the cost will also be accommodated inside it which makes it easier. Guests can enjoy their time while we will do all the hassle.

Alternative Routes to EBC Trek with Lobuche Peak

Nepal is a country with endless trekking opportunities. You will find a new trekking option every once in a while. Therefore it ain't a compulsion to carry on with the EBC trek attached with the Lobuche Peak trek.
