East is one of the most popular “trekking peaks” in Nepal. Located conveniently next to the path to Everest Base Camp, Lobuche east is attempted by trekking groups who come to see the spectacular view of Mt. Everest and the Khumbu valley from its summit, as well as by serious 8000m mountaineers who use the peak for its acclimatization and practice benefits. The climb is relatively straight forward with few technical hurdles. Base Camp and high Camp both have ample space and reliable sources of water, allowing the climber to enjoy the mountain without worrying too much about the logistics.
