Pokalde, Island and Lobuche Peak Climbing
Pokalde, Island and Lobuche Peak Climbing is an exhilarating and extensive Himalayan adventure that scales the three of the most popular trekking peaks in the Khumbu region.

Pokalde, Island and Lobuche Peak Climbing
Thankfulness to the Peak Climbing Nepal team for having this fantastic package on their list. Otherwise, I would never be able to do one of Nepal’s best peak climbing expeditions. This itinerary, which goes to Pokalde, Island, and Lobuche peak, is a complete adventure.
With this team of Peak Climbing Nepal, I got the best assistantship. Trekking guides, climbing guides, kitchen staffs, and other crew members were all so lovely to my group and me. Our expert climbing guide was so good at explaining things. That helped us to follow up on the instruction. Our hard work and the team’s support were the two significant factors of the expedition. Both went hand in hand, and the trip became successful. These people were great at what they had been doing for some time. I highly recommend them.

Fabulous climbing package for real !
Pokalde, Island, and Lobuche climbing was one of my life’s best trips. I never expect that to happen at first. However, the expedition became fabulous with Peak Climbing Nepal’s cordial guidance. Climbing three peaks in a matter of a month is something I will cherish throughout my life. Each of the peaks had its type of difficulties. But I overcame everything with the experienced climbing guide. Thanks to him for showing me the right way.
Likewise, the other staff, from the kitchen to the porters, were helpful. The efforts of all the members, including me, have made the trip possible. I would suggest this agency to anyone for peak climbing in Nepal. You will not regret choosing them.

A big shoutout to the team!
I never in my dream thought I could climb three different peaks in on single month. Well, that happened to me last month. I got the best crews for a trip full of uphills, snow, and mountains. The tour went so smoothly that I never realized how I climbed three peaks.
Among all three peaks, the Lobuche Peak was a bit technical. But I did my part nicely. All of the long preparation and patience made me climb the peaks comfortably. How can I forget the true devotion of my team? The cookery staffs, the guides, and the porters all were hardworking and welcoming. A big shoutout to the team!

It is a trustworthy company for Three Peaks Climbing Pokalde Island and Lobuche. With full arrangements for fixing climbing permits of Three Peaks Climbing Pokalde, Island & Lobuche, we cooperated online regarding the exchange of official documents, such as submitting our details with passport copies and flight details. There was absolutely no problem with the payment.
We received top class service during the whole climbing duration. Ang-Dendi Sherpa, our climbing guide had a top-level of technical climbing skills. Together, we did a successful climb to the summit of all three peaks. As we love climbing, we enjoyed every moment of the climb. Many thanks to all the Sherpa team members who did all the hard job from carrying all the necessities and with humble and cooperative nature. Our kitchen crew provided us with hygienic meals and served very well.
We have a lot of pictures from the climbing days, we want to do more climbing with Nepal Guide Treks in future. We heartily recommend this company for professional service while you explore the hidden corners of the mountain country of Nepal.
