Reviews
Gokyo Ri to Island Peak
Nach 2 Wochen eigenstaendigem Trekking von Lukla ueber Gokyo, Cho La, Gorak Shep, Everest Base Camp und die dazugehoerigen Gipfel errreichten wir Dingboche. Dort trafen wir unseren Guide Lakpa, der uns auf den Island Peak fuehren sollte. Wir bekamen perfekte Leihausruestung. Im Basecamp angekommen, fand das Training fuer die Fixlines statt. Es war sehr sehr professionell!!!! Im Basecamp wurden wir bestens versorgt (aussergewoehnlich viel und gutes Essen). Aus gesundheitlichen Gruenden konnten wir trotz perfekter Akklimatisation dann doch nicht zum Gipfel aufsteigen. Die Betreuung durch die Organisation war sehr gut und hat uns auch waehrend unseres Individualtreks unterstuetzt. Shanta war jederzeit fuer unsere Fragen und Anliegen da und sehr hilfsbereit. Wir kommen wieder…….
Imja Tse – Climbing
I have managed all topics related with this climb with Global Treks & Expeditions, tickets, permit, guide from Chukhung and gear rentals. I must highlight the excellent service provided, capability to have the things ready in less than a day and continuous contact during the climb. I would definitely recommend them to anyone else.
