Climb Ama Dablam Expedition
Ama Dablam is also known as the Himalaya. A beautiful snowcapped, granite peak is located in the Everest region of Nepal. Ama Dablam means “The Mother’s Jewel Box” and is given the name owing to іt’ѕ appearance. Its height is 6812 meters only, but the level of difficulty involved, however, is comparatively high. Ama Dablam Expedition is a technically demanding climb, however, it is truly worth it. The summit offers spectacular, spell bounding views of mountains such as Mount Everest, Lhotse, Island peak, Makalu, Khumbu among many others although the South-west route up this sacred piece of ice-covered rock is most common.
Similarly, as with Mt. Everest, the best climbing months are April-May in the spring and September-October-November in the fall season. It is well known to consolidate the Ama Dablam endeavor with a journey to Everest Base Camp or a rising of Island Peak.
The journey of Ama Dablam Expedition commences from а beautiful flight from Kathmandu to Lukla. After this mesmerizing flight, the trek continues to Phakding and then through а steep hill to Namche Bazar. This trading town is perfect for acclimatizing to the weather and altitude conditions. The trail moves towards classic Everest Base Camp Trek up to Pheriche. It passes through the charming villages since it offers the mind-blowing scenery: Pheriche, a place for proper acclimatization. At an altitude of 4570 m, the Ama Dablam Base camp is located in а grassy plain.
The best time for Ama Dablam Expedition
Spring (March to April) and autumn (October to November) is the best time to go on Ama Dablam Expedition. The weather mostly remains stable with a pleasant climate and clear views during this time of the year.
