Kongde Ri (6,011m \/ 19,720 ft), also known as Kwangde Ri, is a trekking peak in the Khumbu region of north-east Nepal, located immediately south-west of bazar namche<\/a> above the village of tampo<\/a>. The peak lies at approximately 27 degrees 49 minutes north latitude and 86 degrees 43 minutes east longitude, in the Sagarmatha National Park. Kongde Ri was first climbed in 1978 by a French expedition. The Nepal Mountaineering Association classifies it as a Group A trekking peak.\n\nKongde Ri is technically demanding due to the steep, sustained ice slopes on the upper mountain and the heavily corniced summit ridge. The standard route climbs the south face, with Base Camp at approximately 4,500m above Thame and a High Camp at around 5,300m. The summit push involves climbing 50-60 degree ice slopes on the upper mountain, with the final summit ridge narrow and corniced in places. The technical difficulty is rated AD on the Alpine grading system. Climbers should have previous mountaineering experience including ice climbing and fixed-rope ascension.\n\nKongde Ri offers one of the most dramatic summit panoramas in the Khumbu due to its location directly above Namche Bazaar. The summit rewards climbers with views of Everest (8,849m), Lhotse (8,516m), Nuptse (7,861m), Ama Dablam (6,812m), Thamserku (6,623m), Kangtega (6,779m), and the entire Khumbu range. The mountain is also notable for the famous Kongde Ri Viewpoint (4,250m), a luxury hotel location accessed by helicopter for non-climbers.\n\nThe approach follows the classic Everest trekking route from lukla<\/a> to Namche Bazaar, then branches west through the Thame valley to the village of Lumding. The region is culturally Tibetan Buddhist Sherpa homeland, with traditional villages, ancient monasteries at Thame and khumjung<\/a>, and prayer walls along the trail. The best climbing seasons are spring (April-May) and autumn (October-November). Kongde Ri is rarely climbed due to its technical nature and the challenging corniced summit ridge.<\/p>\n","cost_includes":"All airport pickups and drops in private vehicle\nKathmandu hotel (3 nights, B&B) with welcome and farewell dinners\nDomestic flights where applicable to itinerary\nAll ground transport in private vehicle\nAll necessary permits (TIMS, National Park, Conservation Area, Restricted Area where applicable)\nThree meals daily (BLD) during the trek with tea\/coffee\nTea house or camping accommodation during the trek\nExperienced English-speaking trekking guide and assistant guide for groups of 6+\nPorters (1 per 2 trekkers, 15kg luggage allowance) with full insurance\nSleeping bag, down jacket, and duffel bag (refundable deposit)\nFirst-aid kit, pulse oximeter, and emergency oxygen\nSatellite phone for emergency communications\nAll government and local taxes\nNMA Peak Permit fee\nClimbing guide (Sherpa, NNMGA-certified)\nClimbing equipment (crampons, ice axe, harness, helmet, ropes, carabiners)\nHigh camp tents and cooking equipment\nFixed ropes on summit day\nEmergency oxygen at base camp\nSatellite phone for emergency communication","cost_excludes":"International airfare to and from Kathmandu\nNepal visa fee (USD 30 for 15 days, USD 50 for 30 days)\nTravel and high-altitude rescue insurance (mandatory)\nPersonal trekking gear and clothing\nHot showers, Wi-Fi, device charging, and alcoholic beverages\nLunch and dinner in Kathmandu\nTips for guide, porter, and driver (recommended 10-15% of trip cost)\nCosts from unforeseen events (weather, flight delays, route changes)","itineraries":[{"title":"Chegada a Katmandu","content":"\n
