EBC AND ISLAND PEAK
The Everest Base Camp (EBC) trek with the ascent of Island Peak
begins with a scenic birds-eye view over the soaring white Himalayan Mountains.
You will land at Lukla then hit the trail and trek up the Dudh Kosi Valley
surrounded by the massive Thamserku (6623m) and Kusum Kanguru (6367m). Kusum Kanguru, means
"Three Snow-White Gods" in the Sherpa language, which refers to the
triple summit of the mountain. Island Peak is also known in Tibetan as Imja
Tse. Island Peak was aptly named by earlier Mt.Everest explorers due to
it appearing as an island in a sea of ice.
