Trip Overview

This Expedition is designed for those who are willing to make double 8000ers at once, which carries out high elevations including ascents of Mt. Everest and Mt. Lhotse. These two 8000m shares the same route of Khumbu icefall till S-Col (7890m), thus climbers can make another additional ascent after climbing the first one.

Mt. Everest, the highest mountain in the world, is located in the Himalayas and straddles the border between Nepal and Tibet. It stands at an elevation of 8,848.86 meters (29,032 feet) above sea level. Mt. Lhotse, the fourth-highest mountain in the world, is located just south of Everest and stands at an elevation of 8,516 meters (27,940 feet). The Everest & Lhotse combo expedition involves a challenging and technical ascent that requires a high level of physical fitness and mental endurance. Both peaks are located in the Himalayas and stand at heights of more than 8000 meters.

The expedition follows a route through the Khumbu icefall and up to S-Col (7890 meters), which is shared by both mountains. From there, climbers can make an additional ascent to the summit of Lhotse after completing the climb to the top of Mt. Everest. This expedition is ideal for those seeking to conquer two 8000-meter peaks in one go - Mt. Everest and Mt. Lhotse.

Only a small number of climbers have completed the challenge of climbing both Everest and Lhotse in a single season. It is a rare and impressive accomplishment that requires a high level of determination and perseverance.

    Mardi Himal trek. A wonderful trek ideal even for beginners. Wonderful views, great facilities. Our choice for this trek was through our honeymoon. Seven Summit Treks organized and prepared everything. Sherpa Tashi and porter Nima were great. We could talk, they always prepared everything. I have been in contact with the guys from Seven Summit Treks since the expedition to Makalu and I know that I can rely on them. Thank you for your help and wonderful experience. And see you at the next event.

    Our first co-operation was in 2013 in Pakistan with Arnold Coster expeditions and Sevensummittreks towards the Gasherbrum. After that, we continued to work together on expeditions towards Everest, Makalu, Lhotse, Manaslu (winter), and AmaDablam. For me, SST is a very professional company with a lot of experience and knowledge. We have full confidence in their capabilities and appreciate their flexibility. I would like to thank them for all those years of cooperation and I look forwards to new adventures in Nepal and Pakistan.

    I have been on many expeditions in Nepal over the years, most of them I organized with friends and used Seven Summit Treks only for their base camp services with great service! This year none of my friends were available to climb in Nepal in the Autumn season so I contacted SST and decided to sign up for the Mera Peak and Baruntse expedition. SST organized everything and provide me with a personal climbing Sherpa for the entire trip. Throughout the entire trip, everything was taken care of by SST, including lodging, tea houses, and meals. At Baruntse base camp I had a nice private tent and the cook and kitchen staff always had smiles and cooked great meals. My Sherpa (Jangbu) was great and we became close friends and climbing partners. Jangbu was always there with a smile, a very strong climber, always wanting to help in any way he could. There was plenty of time to decide how and when we were going to make a summit push based on the weather. We had fantastic summit days on both peaks and finished the trip crossing the Amphu Labste pass into the Khumbu Valley staying each night in nice lodges with all meals included. I would highly recommend using SST for any expedition that you want to go on. Thank you Seven Summit Treks for a great trip and your attention to detail!!

    My wife and I had an amazing experience with Seven Summits for the Everest Base Camp Trek. The company was extremely hospitable with a welcome dinner on day 1, including an introduction to our guide. Speaking of our guide, Phurkitar, he was simply brilliant. During the trek, he was very patient as both of us went through physical and emotional tiredness, and he ensured we reached EBC without any major issues. In addition, he helped cater to my vegan and my wife's vegetarian diets throughout the trek. Cannot compliment Phurkitar enough for all his efforts.

    Would readily book with Seven Summits again.
