Everest Expedition from Tibet Side

Trip Overview

The Mount Everest Expedition is unquestionably a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Mount Everest, also known as the Sagarmatha in Nepali, is the world's highest peak, standing at 8848 meters. The southern face of the mountain is located in Nepal, while the northern face is located in Tibet. While mapping Chinese territory in 1715, China surveyed the mountain for the first time and named it Mount Qomolangma.

The Rongbuk Glacier runs around the North Peak of Everest, also known as Changtse, and is followed by the Mount Everest north side route. It is a safe climb since it avoids Khumbu Icefall, one of the most treacherous sections on the peak’s south side. In addition, it is less expensive than climbing Everest from Nepal. However, the north side is more technically difficult since there are more exposed rocks and the camps are at a very high altitude.

Nonetheless, the Everest Expedition from Tibet faces numerous challenges, including high altitude, extreme weather, and avalanches. Before attempting it, one must be well-trained. Weather conditions must be acclimatized, and rockfalls and avalanches must be anticipated. Learning how to perform a rescue would be beneficial. You may need to train for several months before beginning your ascent, depending on your present fitness level. A climber must develop both cardiovascular and muscular strength because oxygen levels decline by 60–70 percent above sea level. Also, make sure you can carry bag packs to the summit, as you'll be carrying an oxygen cylinder and heavy bag packs.
