Island peak(Known as Imja Tse) climbing is a widespread trekking peak in Nepal. Upward the Island Peak is relatively easier than other trekking peaks. Compared to other trekking peaks in Nepal, Island peak is difficult to climb. But our team is expert as they climbed Imja Tse(Island Peak) several times.
In 1956, an expedition team of Everest climbed the Island Peak first as Everest Submit practices.
It was first climbed in 1956 by an expedition team that was preparing to climb the peak of peaks or Mount Everest. Although the summit of this peak is a difficult climb after submitted, climbers get supreme mountain views of Makalu (8,481 m), and Ama Dablam (6,856). The descent is comparatively easier and faster than the ascent.
This climbing journey offers some of the most prominent nature in the Khumbu via the charming village of Dingboche.
