techincal
Ama Dablam demands solid technical skills, including confident movement on 4th- and low-5th-class rock, fixed-line systems, and mixed snow-and-rock terrain. You should be proficient with ascenders, rappelling, and managing yourself safely on exposed ridges. Prior experience on other technical alpine routes is required for a smooth and successful ascent.

Altitude
Ama Dablam’s 6,812-meter summit exposes climbers to significant altitude, requiring deliberate acclimatization and an ability to perform effectively in thin air. Expect slower movement, reduced recovery, and an increased need for disciplined pacing as you gain elevation. Prior experience at high altitude greatly improves safety, comfort, and overall success on the mountain.

Plan for 10–15 lbs including personal gear, water, and food for the day during the trek. We have porters for each day of the trek that will carry each person's duffles from tea house to tea house each day. On the upper mountain, plan for 15-20lbs. We also have porter support on the upper mountain.

We'll connect you with your guide prior to the trip.
