ISLAND PEAK with EVEREST BASE CAMP
Why Island Peak?
Island Peak (Called Island Peak because it appears to float on a sea of ice) is the 2nd highest trekking peak in Mount Everest region first climbed by world famous Nepali mountaineer Tenzing Norgay together with three other foreign climbers in 1956.
Island Peak climbing with a trek to Everest Base Camp and Kala Patthar. Reaching Kala Patthar’s viewpoint and the foothills of the world’s highest summit is no joke. With the addition of the conquest of Island Peak, it is a feat that daredevils can achieve!
