Spring (March – May)
During Spring you will experience warm temperatures at lower altitudes and moderate temperatures higher up. The chances of clear, unobstructed mountain views are good, and it is also a good time to see Nepal’s flowers blossom.
Autumn (September – November)
This is the preferred trekking season in Nepal. You will be almost guaranteed excellent mountain views, but be wary – this is the peak trekking season in Nepal, so be sure to book your flights in advance and be prepared for more crowded trekking routes. During this time, you’ll also be able to see and participate in the biggest festivals in Nepal – Dasain and Tihar.
Mount Lhotse, 8,516 meter above the sea level, is the fourth highest mountain on Earth and is connected to Everest via the South Col. In addition to the main summit at 8,516 metres above sea level, Lhotse Middle (East) is 8,414 metres and Lhotse Shar is 8,383 metres. It is located in the Khumbu region of Nepal.
Lhotse is best known for its proximity to Mount Everest and it rises only 610 m above the South Col of Everest. Hence it is often seen as a minor eight-thousander but its south face is tremendous, rising 3.2 km in only 2.25 km of horizontal distance, making it the steepest face of this size in the world.
The main summit of Lhotse was first climbed on 18 May 1956 by the Swiss Everest/Lhotse Expedition. On 12 May 1979 Sepp Mayerl and Rolf Walter of Austria secured the record of the first to step in summit of Lhotse Shar. In the range Lhotse Middle remained the only highest unclimbed peak Earth for a long time but on 23 May 2001 it was successfully climbed by a Russian expedition putting 4 climbers on summit.
We need to follow the Mount Everest South Ridge route till Camp 3 and then we’ll take the normal route to secure the successful summit on the tallest peak of the Mount Lhotse massif.
