Island Peak – 16 Days
About this Climb
Island Peak, officially known as Imja Tse, is one of the most popular and frequently climbed trekking peaks in Nepal. The mountain was first named Island Peak in 1951, as it appears like a solitary island rising from a vast sea of ice when viewed from Dingboche. Although it was later renamed Imja Tse in 1983, the original name Island Peak remains widely used and recognized among climbers around the world.
