Lobuche Peak actually includes two different summits, East (6119m.) and West (6145m.). An
uninterrupted edge links them but there is a significant distance between these two peaks.
The east is identified as a trekking peak while the west is regarded as an expedition. The
Lobuche East Peak has been first climbed by Laurence Nielson and Ang Gyaljen Sherpa in
1984
Lobuche East Peak, an eye-
catching trekking peak offers a
range of existing routes as well as
new ones. The gloomy triangle of
its rocky east part sets down to the
moraines of Khumbu Glaciers to a
pleasing skyline, making the south
face. Lobuche East is ascended by
moving down a marked notch and
walking up steeply from snowy
slopes to the top. Most of the
times, the peak is ascended on the
peak ridge only as far as a
secondary snow high point, south-
east of the right peak. The peak is
also referred as the false peak.
