Ombigaichen Peak Climbing

 Ombigaichen Peak Climbing In Nepal

Ombigaichen Peak climbing, you may have heard this name the first time, whether you are a Nepali or outsider. There are many peaks like this in the Everest Region, and they are called trekking peaks and seem to be underrated when you don’t see their names in the introduction to Everest Base Camp Trek. You can trek up to the base camp of Ombigaichen to do something different that others usually head to the Himalayan Region in Nepal from Jan to May or from August to December for trekking in a familiar route, or you can climb to the summit of Ombigaichen to see the stunning view of Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, Makalu, Baruntse, Ama Dablam, etc. From the base camp of Ama Dablam, you will follow the trekking trail that will take you to the base camp of Ombigaichen. This base camp, that is, the base camp of Ama Dablam, is one of the best base camps in Nepal for trekkers in terms of broad and open space and the availability of fresh water. The main features of  Ombigaichen Peak Climb are:

    ★ The base camp of the world’s most beautiful mountain

    ★ The most beautiful monastery in the Everest Region

    ★ The footsteps of Hillary and Tenzing.
