This is the most popular trekking peak in Nepal. This trek leads to the eastern Everest region and combines an ascent of Island Peak (6189m) and Gokyo Ri (5340m) with a visit to the famous lakes of the Gokyo area. The mountain is clearly seen as a pyramid of ice and rock, so it is called Island Peak. We ascend by the standard route, and although the summit can be reached in one day from base camp, we make use of a high camp. The final ridge is a classic of its kind, and from the summit fabulous views can be enjoyed of many peaks. Island Peak not only provides an enjoyable climb but also provides some of the most spectacular scenery of Himalayas including Nuptse (7,879m), Lhotse (8,501m), Lhotse Middle Peak (8,410m) and Lhotse Shar (8,383m) which make a semi circle in the north. The views of Makalu (8475m) in the east and Baruntse and Ama Dablam in the south add more allure for climbing Island Peak. The trekking route circles back via Thyangboche Monastery. .
