Safety and Fitness

Even though the Paldor peak is below 6000m, it is considered challenging and technical. The road to Paldor peak base camp is rough, steep, and can be snowy. The trail above the base camp is more challenging. The steep up and down trails can be very difficult.

The final 45-degree angle steep climb through the icy surfaces to the peak is very challenging and risky, which requires the right amount of adrenaline push to achieve it! You need to be familiar with mountaineering gear like ice ax, harness, crampons, etc. The extreme temperature and altitude can be a serious problem if you don’t apply the necessary precaution. Any peak climbing requires concentration, focus, patience, and knowledge.

Physical and mental stability is the most important factor. Physical fitness can be built by running, jogging, and light exercising before starting your trek. The average walking hour of 6-7 per day, and overnight camping, risk of altitude sickness, combining all these facts, the trek and climb to Lobuche peak can be moderately difficult.
