Lhotse Expedition

Lhotse is the fourth highest mountain in the world. Which means south peaks is part of the Everest massif. An impressive ring of three peaks makes up the Lhotse massif. Lhotse East or Middle (8,414 m) is situated on the ridge between Main summit of Lhotse 8,516 m and summit Lhotse Shar 8,400 m. The South Face of Lhotse is one of the largest mountain faces in the world. It is considered an independent mountain. It was first climbed from west ridge by F. Luchsinger & E.Reiss (Swiss) in 1956. The South Face though attempted many times was successful climbed only in 1984 by a Czech expeditions. So, this is a technically challenging route and will require solid climbing skills and experience and our route follows from the standard route up the South side, then through the Khumbu icefall to Camps 1,2 and 3 on Everest, from here we rotate up to Lhotse Cap 4 and onto this striking 8000-meter summit. This is a fully guided expedition. So we offer the support, logistics and leadership to you to climb the Mt. Lhotse.
