It is an excellent way to venture into altitudes above 6000m without great technical difficulty. Island Peak is one of Nepal’s 33 designated trekking peaks, and while climbing this peak, you will discover four valleys, one high pass, and experience one peak climb.

The trek to Island Peak Climbing takes you through the countryside, immersing you in centuries-old Nepalese and Tibetan cultures. Kongmala is one of the high passes you’ll cross. At Kala Patthar (18187 ft / 5545 m), a wonderful location to view and photograph Mt. Everest, you’ll have the opportunity to capture stunning images before visiting Everest Base Camp. Island Peak Climbing offers great Himalayan scenery, including views of Nuptse and Lhotse to the north, Mt. Makalu to the east, and Baruntse and Ama Dablam to the south.

The trail passes vibrant Sherpa villages such as Phakding, Namche Bazaar, and Tengboche, allowing trekkers to experience rich culture and stunning Himalayan scenery. As the journey continues towards Dingboche and Chhukung, climbers acclimatize while enjoying views of Lhotse, Ama Dablam, and Makalu.

During the trekking days, we provide breakfast and dinner at the teahouse or lodge where you stay, while lunch is enjoyed en route at selected teahouses along the trail. Meals are ordered from the menu and include a variety of local and international options. Typical meals include.

  • Breakfast: Porridge, toast with eggs, Tibetan bread, pancakes, noodles, or rice, served with tea or coffee.
  • Lunch & Dinner: Dal Bhat (rice with lentils and vegetable curry), fried rice, noodles, thukpa (Tibetan soup), and momos. For dinner, desserts like apple pie, rice pudding, or custard are also available in some places.

At Island Peak Base Camp, hot meals are freshly prepared by our climbing crew, using quality ingredients to keep you well-nourished at high altitude. We also provide water purification tablets or drops, so you always have access to safe drinking water throughout the trek and climb.

Best Time for Island Peak Climbing

we recommend climbing Island Peak during the spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) seasons for the best experience. These periods offer the most favorable weather conditions, with clear skies, stable temperatures, and excellent mountain views.

Spring brings warmer days and vibrant rhododendron blooms along the trail, making it the most popular time to climb. Autumn, on the other hand, follows the monsoon season, offering crisp air and stunning visibility with less crowd on the trail.

While winter climbs (December to February) are possible for experienced adventurers, they require extra preparation due to cold temperatures and snow. We do not recommend the monsoon season (June to August) for this climb, as heavy rain can lead to poor trail conditions and limited visibility.

Island Peak Climbing Alternatives

Looking for other thrilling climbs? Mera Peak offers a higher, less technical ascent with incredible views of Everest and surrounding giants. Lobuche Peak is slightly more technical and perfect for those wanting a greater challenge near the Everest Base Camp trail. Both are great options for adventure seekers. Contact us at Aarohi Holiday to find the best climbing experience tailored to your goals and skill level.

Useful Info

Lukla Flight Information

During peak trekking seasons (March–May and October–November), flights from Kathmandu to Lukla are rerouted via Manthali Airport (Ramechhap) due to high air traffic. This requires a 5–6 hour drive from Kathmandu to Manthali before the early morning flight to Lukla. In other months (January–February and June–September), flights usually operate directly from Kathmandu’s domestic airport.

Please note, flight schedules are subject to weather, air traffic, and other logistical factors, which can cause delays or cancellations. We strongly recommend adding 1–2 buffer days to your itinerary to accommodate any unexpected changes.

Island Peak Climbing Difficulties

Island Peak may be a trekking peak, but it’s no easy climb. Standing at 6,189 meters, it demands good physical fitness, previous trekking experience, and strong mental determination. The route includes steep ascents, glacier walks, and the use of crampons, ropes, and an ice axe in some sections.

The high altitude, cold weather, and long walking hours—often 6 to 7 hours daily with a backpack—add to the challenge. Altitude sickness can also be a risk, especially above 5,000m. However, with proper acclimatization, rest days, hydration, and expert guidance from Aarohi Holiday, the climb becomes achievable and safe for fit adventurers.

Trekking Day for Island Peak Climbing

A typical trekking day for Island Peak Climbing begins early in the morning after a warm breakfast. You’ll trek for about 5 to 7 hours each day through diverse landscapes—starting with lush forests and Sherpa villages, then ascending to alpine meadows, glacial valleys, and rocky moraines. As the altitude increases, the pace slows to allow proper acclimatization. Breaks are taken for tea, lunch, and rest stops to maintain energy and avoid altitude sickness.

As you approach Island Peak Base Camp (around 5,100 meters), the terrain becomes steeper and more rugged, with breathtaking views of Lhotse, Nuptse, Ama Dablam, and the Imja Glacier. The final summit push begins before dawn on summit day, using ropes, crampons, and ice axes to navigate crevasses and steep ice walls. Each day is both physically demanding and incredibly rewarding, with panoramic Himalayan vistas and a true sense of adventure.

Acclimatization during the Island Peak Climbing

Proper acclimatization is key to a safe and successful Island Peak climb. At Namche Bazaar, trekkers can explore nearby villages or hike up to Syangboche and the Everest View Hotel for panoramic Himalayan views. Another important stop is Chhukung, where climbers rest and receive a basic climbing orientation to prepare for the summit. These acclimatization days help your body adjust to the altitude and reduce the risk of altitude sickness.

AMS and Safety on the Island Peak Climbing

Safety and health are always a top priority during Island Peak Climbing. All guides are highly trained in high-altitude first aid and carefully monitor climbers for any signs of Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS). The itinerary includes essential acclimatization days in Namche Bazaar and Chhukung, helping the body adjust to higher elevations.

In case of AMS symptoms, the team responds immediately—whether that means taking rest, descending to a safer altitude, or organizing emergency evacuation. With the right pacing, proper hydration, and expert support, climbers are well-prepared for a safe and successful ascent.

Physical Fitness for Island Peak Climbing

Climbing Island Peak is a demanding high-altitude adventure that requires strong physical fitness and endurance. Climbers should be able to walk 6–7 hours a day over rugged trails while carrying a backpack and be prepared for steep ascents, icy sections, and the use of basic climbing gear above 6,000 meters.

Cardiovascular fitness, leg strength, and stamina are essential, and prior trekking or hiking experience at altitude is highly recommended. At least 6–8 weeks of physical preparation—including hiking, running, or strength training—is advised. Mental readiness, proper acclimatization, and determination are key to a successful and safe summit.

Travel Insurance for Island Peak Climbing

Travel insurance is mandatory for Island Peak Climbing due to the high altitude and technical nature of the expedition. Your policy should specifically cover climbing activities up to 6,500 meters, including emergency helicopter evacuation, medical treatment, trip cancellations, and loss of gear. Given the remote terrain and unpredictable weather, proper insurance ensures safety and peace of mind throughout the journey.

Island Peak Climbing Cost

The cost for Island Peak Climbing is USD 2,650 per person, which includes all essential services from Kathmandu to Kathmandu, such as domestic flights, permits, accommodations, meals, climbing gear, and guide support.

This price is based on a minimum of 2 participants. For larger groups, we offer 5% to 10% group discounts, and one group leader can join free of cost. This package ensures a fully supported and safe Himalayan climbing experience.

Island Peak Climbing Itinerary

Island Peak Climbing begins with your arrival in Kathmandu, where you’ll explore the city’s rich cultural sites before flying to Lukla, the gateway to the Khumbu region. The trek follows the classic Everest Base Camp route through Phakding, Namche Bazaar, and Tengboche, offering breathtaking Himalayan views and Sherpa hospitality along the way. Acclimatization days in Namche and Chhukung help your body adjust to the altitude.

After reaching Everest Base Camp and witnessing sunrise from Kala Patthar, the route leads through Kongma La Pass to Chhukung, and onward to Island Peak Base Camp. A full day is set aside for climbing orientation and final preparations. The summit push begins early, reaching 6,189 meters, with stunning views of Lhotse, Nuptse, and Ama Dablam. After a successful summit, the journey retraces back through Pangboche and Namche to Lukla, followed by a scenic flight to Kathmandu. This 19-day adventure blends high-altitude trekking with an exciting climbing experience in the heart of the Himalayas.
