Imjatse, better known as Island Peak, is a mountain in the Himalayas of eastern Nepal. The peak was later renamed in 1983 to ImjaTse, but Island Peak remains to be the popular name. Imjatse is one of the most popular trekking peaks which take us in high valley of the Khumburegion. The magnificent view of this peak is possible after starting our trek from Lukla to Namche Bazaar. Our exact route would be a camp at Gorakhshep(5160m), thena walk to Kalapathar(5545m) to viewthe glorious Everest’s southwest face, Lhotse, Nuptse, and, of course, Imjatse (Island peak).
