Overview
This plan is designed especially for our strongest clients who want a bigger challenge than just trekking to the base camp. We have prepared a customised itinerary so that not only our clients reach the summit successfully but they also enjoy the scenic journey along the way. This itinerary ensures that our team gets ample amount of time to connect with mother nature and to acclimatize well before attempting the 6000m+ Lobuche (East) peak. In the Mountains, right itinerary and wrong itinerary can be the difference between success and failure. In 2023, Saad led first all Pakistani team to the summit of Lobuche East peak. All team members summited the mountain successfully.
