    DETAILPROGRAMM NEPAL BERG PLUS KULTUR Reisetipp: Ama Dablam Die Ama Dablam mit ihren 6.856m und ihrer genialen Aussicht auf Makalu, Lhotse, Everest und Cho Oyu ist einer der schönsten Berge weltweit und das Hauptziel dieser Expedition. Sie liegt in der Khumbu Region des Himalaya und wird aufgrund ihrer Form auch als „Matterhorn Nepals“ bezeichnet. Ihre Besteigung ist technisch recht anspruchsvoll und bedarf einer ausreichenden Höhenakklimatisation. Um die Akklimatisationsphase möglichst abwechslungsreich und spannend zu gestalten, wird eine elftägige Trekkingrunde mit atemberaubenden Ausblicken auf die umliegenden Eisriesen, sowie einer Besteigung des Lobuche East, einem weiteren 6.000er, zur Höhenanpassung genutzt. Die Trekkingrunde führt uns über einen 5.420m hohen Pass und bietet die Möglichkeit auch einen kleineren Aussichtsgipfel, den Gokyo Ri (5.360 m), zu besteigen. Für die Besteigung der Ama Dablam haben wir im Anschluss 10 Tage Zeit, um drei Hochlager und Fixseile gemeinsam mit den Hochträgern einzurichten und den Gipfel zu besteigen. Durch die Trekkingrunde vorab, verkürzt sich die Akklimatisationsphase am Berg auf die letzten Höhenmeter und wir ersparen uns ein nervenaufreibendes Auf und Ab. Dadurch können wir die Tage für die Gipfelbesteigung besser einteilen und aktiver erleben. Die unbeschreibliche Aussicht vom Gipfel der Ama Dablam auf die umliegenden Berggiganten lässt sofort alle Mühen vergessen. Bereits auf dem spektakulären Panoramaflug von Kathmandu nach Lukla, in die höchste Gebirgsregion der Welt, können wir die ersten beeindruckenden Ausblicke auf den Himalaya genießen. Während der Trekkingrunde übernachten wir in einfachen typisch nepalesischen Lodges. Im Hochlager des Lobuche East, sowie im Basislager und in den Hochlagern für die Ama Dablam Besteigung schlafen wir in 2-Personen Zelten.

Everest Base Camp is an ideal choice for those who are new to the delights of trekking. With our itinerary you get the opportunity to trek to both Ama Dablam Base Camp and Everest Base Camp. We have been operating treks in Nepal and to the Everest region for many years and our itineraries have been carefully planned to provide extra rest and acclimatisation days to ensure you remain fit and healthy and as a reserve against bad weather. For further advice take a look at our Blog article "Our Seven Tips for a Successful Trek to Everest Base Camp". The Everest region is the most famous area in Nepal and perhaps the entire Himalaya as it is the centre for the many mountaineering expeditions. Here Himalayan giants from Everest to Ama Dablam tower above the Khumbu Valley, making this valley one of the world’s most magical and inspiring places to visit and trek. Sagarmatha (Everest) National Park covers the area known as the Khumbu and is situated in the north-eastern region of Nepal. It is spectacular mountainous country and most of the park is steep and rugged with paths that traverse and wind round the hillsides, the terrain broken by deep gorges and glacial valleys, while the major valleys have some relatively level areas which are used for growing crops and grazing.

    4.4 Lobuche to Gokyo by the Cho La 53 73 67 Day 1 Lobuche to Dzonghla 2-3 hours Day 2 Dzonghla to Thangnak via the Cho La 5-8 hours Day 3 Thangnak to Gokyo 2-4 hours This section describes an adventurous route that links the Khumbu Valley with the Gokyo Valley, traversing a high pass with a glacier. Under good conditions it can be completed by any strong trekker; after heavy snowfall it may be unsafe, but there is a fallback ‘long way round’. We describe the link in the westerly direction, for those descending from Lobuche, but it works equally well going eastward from Gokyo. Chola Tsho, with Taboche and Cholatse Lobuche (4910 m) to Dzonghla (4600 m) • From Lobuche, divert from the standard descent path by bearing right 1 km south of Lobuche. Enjoy the gentle traverse as it heads slightly uphill, with great views back up the moraine, and also across the valley to Dughla and Pheriche with Ama Dablam and other peaks. • As you round the shoulder of Arakam Tse westward, you gain amazing views over the glacial Chola Tsho lake, with the craggy peaks of Taboche and Cholatse as backdrop. • The path swings right, westward, but remains easy walking across an area with many streams. After crossing the largest of these, you begin your fnal uphill approach to Dzonghla, almost hidden in its valley. • There’s a couple of lodges here, but facilities are fairly primitive: don’t count on an inside toilet. However, you may well see snowcocks strutting their stuf and it’s pleasantly quiet here.
