Trip Details
  • Duration: 28 Days
  • Destination: Nepal
  • Grade: Very Difficult

Ama Dablam has long been considered the prettiest mountain in the world. High on her Southwest face hangs a glacier resembling a ’Dablam’ - the sacred ornament box worn by ladies in the Sherpa community. It was this spectacular feature that got her the name "Ama Dablam". She lies alongside Everest in the heart of the Khumbu valley offering a superb climb up a spectacular ridge.

The route we follow begins at Lukla (2850m) and the initial days of the trek pass through the legendary Sherpa country up the spectacular high valley of the Khumbu. Much of he route on the actual climbing is fixed with no icefall or glacier to negotiate, and most of it is concentrated on the crest of a ridge. The climb is relatively safe though exposed and sheep and not really a mountain for debutantes.

You then fly over Rolwaling Himal with striking views of Gauraisankar and Menlungtse before reaching the Everest region and the airport at Lukla.

LUKLA – PHAKDING
The trail starts from Lukla with a gentle climb up the mountainside on the left bank of the Dudh Kosi (river). In the distance you may be able to see Nupla (5,885m), rising above the ridge. The path continues up and down along the side of the river before arriving at Phakding.

Day 04: Phading to Namche Bazar (3,440m)
We follow the Dudh Kosi river passing villages interspersed with magnificent forests of rhododendron, magnolia trees and giant firs to Namche Bazar, the main settlement of the Sherpa area. Phakding – Namche Bazar: 6hrs trek

PHAKDING – NAMCHE BAZAAR
Continuing from Phakding you get your first view of Thamserku (6,623m), which looms above you on the opposite side of the river. The path climbs up a terraced hillside passing through small villages and rhododendrons forest and across a number of small streams. There are many ascents and descents but the final hike up to Namche Bazaar is quite hard going with a steep path that zig zags up the hill. However, it is all worthwhile as you finally reach the top of the ridge and there are superb views of Everest (8,848m) and Lhotse (8,516m). A final short walk through pine forest takes you to Namche Bazaar, the centre of the Everest Trekking region. In the town there is an interesting Sherpa Traditional Museum from where there are fabulous views of Thamserku (6,623m), Amadablan (6,812m), Island Peak (6,160m), Lhotse (8,516m) and the top of Everest (8,848m).

There are two routes to Tyangboche and we take the left fork via Khumjung at the foot of Khumbila Peak (5,761m). Khumjung Gompa possesses what is said to be the skull of a yeti. From Khumbila we descend through forest to the village of Trashinga and then down to the Dudh Khosi which can be heard thundering through the valley. After crossing the river it is a long steep climb to Tyangboche. As you reach the top, the incline gradually eases off and you finally pass through a stone gate, built by lamas, which marks the entrance to Tyangboche. In front of you is one of the most impressive views anywhere in the Himalayas, an awe inspiring panorama of Himalayan giants: Kwangde, Tawache, Everest, Nuptse, Lhotse, Amadablam, Kategna and Thamserku.
