Acclimatization

Alpine Eco Trek is an expert at operating at high-altitude. Each trip we run has a realistic acclimatization program. Our entire adventure trips are designed to allow gradual height gain, spread over a number of days. High altitude is not predictable sickness, so there is no way of predicting who will suffer from altitude but, for the vast majority of people, a slow ascent to height will produce minimal effects. We can provide Gamow Bag as a precautionary measure as per your request on renting basis. Acclimatizing takes time and there are no safe shortcuts. All trips to altitudes in excess of 3,000 meters carry medicines essential to the treatment of altitude sickness, and our leaders, guides and staffs are well trained to administer them and to know the symptoms.

Island Peak Climbing with Everest Base Camp Trek

We landed in Kathmandu and stayed at a hotel in Thamel, next day while having our breakfast we mate one Australian couple (who did a trip to Everest base camp with Alpine Eco Trek), they recommend us Alpine Eco Trek which is near to our hotel too, after the breakfast we visited Alpine Eco Trek and the very friendly and energetic manager of this company, Mr. Ram gave us various information on the Everest base camp trek and Island Peak climbing trip. We also visited some other companies in Thamel, we found some offers less and some offers higher than this company. But, we decided to go through Alpine Eco Trek because we found them very professional, reasonable with very active and friendly guides. This company organized everything for us starting from Lukla flights, permits, Tims and trekking crew including 3 days for climbing Island Peak, these things were organized perfectly. We trekked from Lukla – Phadking – Namche Bazzar – Tengboche – Dingboche – Lobuche – Everest Base Camp – Kalapatthar and back down to Dingboche with our trekking guide Mr. Ram Gopal. In Dingboche, we met our Island Peak climbing crew, after one day rest we started Island Peak Expedition, mild altitude problems but few doses of Diamox and good care of lovely climbing crew including Guide Soman Sherpa and Karma Sherpa. We stayed in tented camps, food was good, all the arrangements were perfect, with precious help from the climbing crew we made it to Summit. We can definitely recommend Alpine Eco Trek and Expedition to our friends.

Island peak with EBC trek

Thank you, Ram and Alpine Eco Trek for a stunningly beautiful experience. The guides Mr. RG, Karma and Rajan were very accommodating plus caring especially when I was ill. One highlight was the ice cave at Everest base camp and also the views from the top of Island peak. Everything went smoothly and I enjoyed every minute. Thanks for the great trip.

EBC with Imja Tse (Island Peak)

We just want to say thanks to Alpine Eco crew and Mr. Ram (owner) who made our trip one of the best we have ever had in our life. We did the Everest Base Camp trek and climbed Island Peak (imja Tse) with Alpine Eco and can only say they made the trip fantastic. We were met at the airport and all the details were taken care of. The trekking guide and climbing guide both were great! and above all else they were safe. We will be booking another trip with them next year. Thanks to the entire team at Alpine Eco Trek.

Everest Base Camp Trek and Island Peak Climbing

We have just come back from Everest Base Camp and Island Peak climbing trip with the family, which included a memorable 3 weeks stay in Nepal organized by Ram Kumar and his team. Very quickly it was obvious that Ram and his team not only knew what they were doing but that they were the nicest people you could plan to trek with. I am particularly grateful for their infinite patience end expert advice during the planning stage, especially as I was very busy with the rest of our round-the-world trips and with work. We trekked to Everest Base Camp with the family and I continued with Ram Gopal to Island Peak base camp. The trip was fantastic from beginning to end and we summited 2 days ahead of schedule. For the climb, I had 2 rock solid and very friendly mountain guides, Dilip and Nima and we were totally alone on the mountain. Ram Gopal is the most helpful, resourceful and courteous guide you could have. He anticipates a lot and is ready to deal with whatever situation may arise in the mountains, thanks to his extensive experience in the Himalaya. The lodges were all much better than I expected, the view from Island Peak was amazing. Even the base camp was very comfortable. We sincerely hope to return to this beautiful country for another great trip with Alpine Eco Trek.
