Kwandge Peak
 

The Kwangde Ri lies in the Khumbu Range of the Everest Region. It’s a triple summit challenging climbing peak with an average height of 6011m. The mountain extends further east from the Lumding Himal toward the massive Rolwaling Himal.  The northern approach to the peak is more challenging, although even the southern face is also a demanding one. The summiteers are rewarded with the exciting views that extend across the Khumbu, from Ama Dablam and Makalu in the East, to Everest and Cho Oyu and the Rolwaling peaks, to the northwest.

The Kwangde Ri mountain rises from the south-west of Namche Bazaar above the Bhote Kosi River forming a barrier of multiple steep ridges to the north. The mountain falls in the Category B of the NMA Trekking Peaks.
