Why Climb with Alpine Ascents on Island Peak?

Everest Base Camp Trek & Kala Pattar Nepal

Overview


Explorers, travelers and climbers alike have long been seduced by the mythos and excitement of Mt. Everest and the dynamic region of the Sherpa people. Alpine Ascents is unique in that your guide is also a professional climber, adding a unique dimension of climbing history in addition to Sherpa and monastic culture. Read More

Like all our expeditions, we believe that the trekker should be lost in the world of mountains and travel unfettered by the rigors of food preparation, lodging and logistics. Read More

Our treks are open to any reasonably fit enthusiast. Hiking among the Himalayas is a lifetime experience not to be missed!

Why Trek With Us?


"I'd been to Nepal before, but traveling with Alpine Ascents was a different trip altogether. The trek logistics were flawlessly organized so I could concentrate on enjoying the countryside. Traveling with experienced guides like Todd and Vern opens doors that are closed to most visitors. Not only do those guys know the way, they know most of the people along the way, and the result is a cultural experience unmatched by anything I've experienced before. It's the way Himalayan travel should be."
-Peter Potterfield, Author of "High Himalaya" and "Classic Hikes Of The World."

We are confident that our expertise in this region is unsurpassed. Read More

What Former Trekkers Say...


"Fantastic! It was everything I had hoped for and more! The itinerary was perfect! It allowed plenty of time to acclimate and I felt stronger as we got to higher altitude. Also, the folks you had on the ground in Nepal were fantastic! I'm used to handling arrangements while I travel by myself, so it was a great comfort (and a bit luxurious) to have someone there for me to take care of everything at all times. ." -Tiffany B.   Read More
