Lobuche East - 6119m<br />

Rising above the Khumbu glacier, Lobuche is a majestic peak in the Everest Region. Because of<br />

its proximity to Mount Everest, the peak is often used as an ‘acclimatisation ascent’ by expedition<br />

groups climbing Mount Everest. Lobuche has two summits, Lobuche East(6119) and Lobuche<br />

West(6145m). Of the two summits, the ascent up Lobuche East is considered to be more easy.<br />

Nevertheless, Lobuche is considered as a challenging peak, and one needs prior climbing experience<br />

to tackle the peak.<br />
