The fourth highest mountain in the world, Lhotse is an exhilarating climb that follows the Everest climbing route as far as Camp Four.
A narrow gully splits the upper northwest face making for an exciting and interesting finale to the climb.
From Base Camp we ascend the famous Khumbu icefall and enter the Western Cwm that we follow to Camp Two, surrounded by the towering flanks of Nuptse, Lhotse and Everest’s South West face.
The route steepens as we climb the icy Lhotse face to Camp Three then on through the Yellow Band to Camp Four at the base of the summit gully. 2,000ft / 600m of climbing up the icy gully follows, sometimes with rocky sections that keep you on your toes, making this a challenging ascent.
