    We are observing the gorgeous views of Khumbu or Everest region during the flight to Lukla. The thick forest of rhododendron, oak, Birch and Pine trees are the attraction during the way to Dingboche. Our first point of Island peak climbing is Dingboche. The trekking as well climbing is much easier for the experienced climber. However, it is easier with the support of experienced climbing guides. Ice axes, crampons, and other equipment give you more confidence to climb this technical and challenging climbing of Island peak. The snowcapped mountains, glacier,  Mt. Makalu, Mt. Lhotse, Lhotse Shar, Lhotse middle peak, Mt. Nuptse, Mt. Baruntse and gorgeous views of Ama Dablam give you relief from the tiredness.

Thamserku (6,608m) on our right and also experience the serenity of pine, fir and juniper forests throughout our journey. If the weather in our favor then we are able to see the fabulous scenic view of Mt. Everest, Lhotse etc.

Today is our rest day. Health experts recommend that we stay active and move around even during the rest day instead of being idle. There is few option to do in this day i.e. Namche’s quaint villages or come in contact with the Sherpa people and their rich culture, or we can hike up to the Everest View Hotel and enjoy an up-close view of the mighty Everest.While in the Namche village or upon returning from the hike to the Everest View Hotel, trekkers may also visit the local museum containing exhibits displaying the area’s native flora and fauna as well as the history of the Mount Everest region.

During the journey, we explore Tengboche monastery which is the largest monastery of the Everest region.It is Located amidst the Sagarmatha National Park (a UNESCO World Heritage Site of “outstanding universal value”), it is draped with the panoramic 360-degree view of the Himalayas, including Mt. Everest, Nuptse, Lhotse, Ama Dablam and Thamserku. The monastery opens at 3:00 pm so if we are lucky we might just be able to witness a religious ceremony.

So, We prepare for an early morning departure, amid pre-dawn darkness and cold temperatures (-10 to -14 C)Familiar peaks such as Lingtren, Khumbutse, and Changtse tower to the east even as Everest begins to reveal itself. But, it is upon reaching Kala Patthar that we get to see360 degree up-close and formidable views of Mt. Everest.
