Ama Dablam Expedition is one of the most popular expeditions in the Himalayas. Located in the Khumbu valley, this expedition offers an unforgettable climbing experience. This mountain stands tall over some of the most famous Sherpa villages.
The climb requires technical expertise and advanced physical condition. It is also important to have a good knowledge of rock and ice climbing. You should be able to climb near vertical ice, rappel and carry a load on your back.
Ama Dablam Expedition is led by experienced Sherpas. They will be in charge of the climb and help you safely reach the top of the mountain. All of the equipment and oxygen you need will be provided. There are three camps you can stay in.
Base Camp is located in Dingboche. The camp is a little crowded in October. Late November and early December are quieter.
The Ama Dablam expedition is a serious technical climb. The route is steep and involves ice and rock climbing. Climbers must be comfortable with cold weather and spend several days in exposed terrain.
Before going on the expedition, you should consult with your doctor. Also, you must take cardio-vascular exercises. You must use proper gears. Make sure you don't overpack.
Ama Dablam is the third most climbed peak in the world. However, it is a more technically demanding climb than Everest. For those looking to make their first ascent, this is a great option.

Don’t forget your camera and chargers, batteries and correct plug for Nepal.
Flashlights are essential while trekking. Electricity may be unreliable at some teahouses. You may also need to hike early in the morning or late evening. Better to carry a flashlight with extra batteries.
E A large back pack is essential for all your trekking needs, clothes, sleeping bag etc. Your porter will carry your large backpack. You may wish to carry a smaller one with daily essentials for the day including water bottle camera, jacket etc.
Water bottle and Water purifier are the most essential things that you need during trekking. Drinking water will need to be purified to make it drinkable.
A light weight poncho is useful for rain showers while on trek.
Trekking Poles
Trekking poles, one or two depending on the terrain and how much support you might need, are very useful for assistance with walking rhythm and stability on rough terrain. They are essential equipment which you must carry during trekking.
Wraparound sunglasses offer the broadest protection against UV damage because they block more of the light that hits your eyes from the sides. Sunglasses with large lenses and wide temples provide the next-best protection.
SPF measures sunscreen protection from UVB rays, the kind that cause sunburn and contribute to skin cancer. Dermatologists recommend using a SPF50 or SPF50+ sunscreen during trekking trails.

A fleece sweater, or just a fleece, is a lightweight casual sweater made of synthetic polyester wool such as polar fleece. It will provide thermal insulation but is not usually weatherproof, so wind and rain will not be effectively kept out. For trekking during the daytime it is fine. Long underwaer and track pants for night wear and under trek pants if cold during the day.
While trekking you need long some good quality woollen hiking socks which provide warmth as well as comfort. We recommend you to buy some extra pairs of woollen socks for your journey.
