By ascending three recognizable six-thousand-meter peaks in one trip, the three peaks climb in Nepal provides a great introduction to authentic Himalayan mountaineering. The three peaks that are most frequently climbed in the Everest region are Mera Peak, Island Peak, and Lobuche Peak. Every year, many people like climbing peaks. Additionally, Nepal has many stunning peaks, thus standing out among them is an accomplishment in and of itself. Similar to how the peaks’ distinct structure accounts for much of their appeal. The trip offers a chance to sharpen your mountaineering skills while experiencing authentic Himalayan climbing.
This is the best trek to Everest Base Camp if you have some extra time to really take in the splendor of the Himalayas! The Kongma La at 5535 meters, the Cho La at 5420 meters, and the Renjo La at 5340 meters make up three of the high passes in the Khumbu region, making this a longer and more difficult trek than the usual route. This journey offers a full circumnavigation of the area as well as the chance to ascend three non-technical Himalayan peaks, including Chukkung Ri (5550 m), Kala Pattar (5550 m), and Gokyo Ri (5385 m).
Mera, Island, and Lobuche Peak
The Mera Peak Climb is for all adventure enthusiasts who have the desire and determination to get the most out of their journey in the Himalayas because it is the highest trekking peak in Nepal and progresses over a non-technical route. All you need to get started is a healthy level of fitness. Views of Makalu, Cho Oyu, Kanchenjunga, and other summits and mountains are our reward for completing the climb. One of Nepal’s most beautiful locations offers visitors a 360-degree panorama of the country’s shimmering mountains.
Island Peak, also known as Imja Tse, is a startling peak among the Himalayan giants. It is 6,189 m excessively high and no longer necessitates advanced hiking abilities. It is therefore equally well known among experienced and beginning hikers. Similar to how words cannot adequately describe the beauty of this mountain. It’s true that this mountain looks like an island in the middle of a field of snow. The views are extremely breathtaking from this mountain’s summit.
At the conclusion of the Three Peaks Climb, we will accept the epic challenge of Lobuche because it will be the hardest. The route that leads from the south ridge and leads to the top will be the one we take. Even though they are difficult, the Magical Mountains in Khumbu offer breathtaking views of the highest mountain in the world, Everest.
Three Peaks and Three Passes Altitude
You ascend to altitude on this trek in a controlled amount of time. We don’t get over 5000 meters until day 10 of the itinerary or day 8 of the trek, which is far slower than ascents of mountains like Kilimanjaro and gives you plenty of time to acclimate. We only spend one night sleeping over 5000 meters at Gorak Shep. This is a difficult journey with high passes and three potential peaks, which means we will go over 5000 meters seven times in total. However, the route is reasonable and should allow you enough time to acclimate.
Packing list for the three passes and three peaks in Nepal
The main goal of the equipment you should bring is to keep you warm, dry, and sun-protected while also allowing you to move around freely in the mountains and feel at ease at night and in the evenings.

Three Peak Climbing in Nepal: Difficulty
The ultimate rock climbing excursion is Three Peak Climbing, which involves ascending three peaks that are higher than 6,000 meters and the 5,850-meter Anhurapcha Pass. Physically and technically demanding, the climbs to Mera, Island, and Lobuche Peak are challenging. These three peaks are also the most well-known and well-liked mountaineering peaks in the Everest region. This summit will be the ideal journey full of thrills and excitement thanks to the combination of the three. For those looking for maximum adrenaline and adventure while hiking and mountaineering, Mera, Island, and Lobuche are ideal. The island peak is the most technically challenging of the three peaks. Numerous glaciers, crevasses, rocks, and ridge walks are also present.
Three peak and Three Pass Climbing in Nepal: Best Season
Peak-climbing is a seasonal practice in Nepal. The majority of Nepal’s mountains are most easily climbed in the fall and spring. The optimum times to climb Mera, Island, and Lobuche Peak are also in the autumn (September, October, and November) and spring (March, April, and May). The days in the Himalayas are sunny and warm during these months. The Himalayan atmosphere is interesting, and the sky is sunny. Consequently, we have a stunning view of the mountains. Adventuresome visitors, however, who dislike the trip’s clamor and bustle, might also choose the winter months (December, January, and February) for this journey. Because of the rainfall, climbing the Himalayas is exceedingly challenging during the monsoon season (June, July, and August).
Cost for Three Peak Climbing in Nepal
For their length, climbing the Mera, island, and Lobuche peaks is somewhat pricey. It takes more than four additional weeks to complete the entire climbing excursion. As a result, the expedition costs throughout the season range from $ 4,500 to USD 5,000. A 4-night stay in Kathmandu at the tourist itinerary includes BB plan, city guide, all entrance fees, and private transportation are the general expenses for climbing three peaks in the Everest region. After that, the price also includes the up-and-down trip from Kathmandu to Lukla, a climbing permit, trekking permissions, and park entrance fees. Additionally, the cost of all meals, lodging, guides, and porters is the same.
