Mt Nuptse, also called Nubtse lies towards the South-Western side of Mt Everest in the Lhotse-Nuptse Massif in the Khumbu Region. Separated from Lhotse by a 7556m high saddle, Mt Nuptse has 7 significant peaks, namely Nuptse I, Nuptse II at 7,827m, Nuptse Shar I at 7,804m, Nuptse Nup I at 7784, Nuptse Shar II at 7,776m, Nuptse Nup II at 7,742m and Nuptse Shar III at 7,605m,  Nuptse I being the highest and most prominent one. The Nuptse ridge goes west-northwest until its steep west-face drops down as low as 2300m to the Khumbu Glacier, while the South-face of Mt Nuptse is 2500m high and 5 kilometers wide.

Itinerary:

Arrival in Kathmandu and rest at the hotel

We will require the permits for entering the Khumbu Region as well as to climb Mt Nuptse which we will acquire from the Ministry of Tourism. As we complete the documentation procedure we will also go sightseeing around the city and nearby places. 

We will take a short mountain flight to Lukla and start our trek to Phakding. Following the banks of Dudh Koshi River, we will ascend towards Phakding and rest overnight.

From Phakding, we start our trek to the commercial hub of Khumbu region, Namche Bazaar. It is a beautiful town, a popular stop for travellers in the Everest Region offering a wide range of facilities from accommodation to banking. We will rest here one more day to acclimatize ourselves in the high altitude and explore the area.

From Namche Bazaar, we set our route towards Thyangboche. Thaynagboche is famous for the monastery which is as old as 100 years old. It offers knowledge in terms of culture, traditions, and lifestyle of people that lived there. 

The next stop in our expedition route is Dingboche. Dingboche is also a popular stop where travellers stay to acclimatize themselves. It offers a different type of landscape and atmosphere that you will need to rest here a day to acclimatize yourself. 

Lobuche is a small settlement and also the last village in this journey. Situated in the base of Lobuche Himal, this village has few tea houses to offer. 

Then, we trek to Nuptse Base Camp and start preparing to climb. We will conduct some climbing practices and also acclimatize at the same time.

After conducting some basic climbing practice, we will start our ascent to Mt Nuptse. Following the routes fixed by the professional climbers, we will ascend the mountain. Upon a successful summit, we will slowly move towards the Base Camp. 

After successfully ascending the summit, we will return back to the base camp and clean the camp. We make sure we promote healthy travel and adventure. 

After cleaning the base camp, we will retrace our path back to Lobuche and rest overnight.

We will then trek back to Pangboche. Going through the dense forests hearing the chirping of birds and the flow of winds, we will reach our destination for the day.

Our next stop would be Namche. We will explore the remaining corners and familiarize with the locals there.

From Namche, we set our track to Lukla from where we will take a flight to Kathmandu. 

After the wonderful expedition in the mountain region, we will now return back to the city. After a short mountain flight, we will land at the airport and will be transferred to the Hotel to rest.
