Stamina - Endurance
A mountain athlete needs endurance above any other specific fitness skill. Cardiovascular fitness is of course always subject to the movement (as climbing rocks or steep ice, you will not be able to transfer your triathlete or running fitness to mountains without being solid in the required mountaineering skills).

If you want to avoid traveling to Ramechhap, there is an alternative option to fly by helicopter to Lukla. A helicopter will fly from Kathmandu to Lukla but you have to pay extra costs to charter the flight or to share the flight with other trekkers. So, you need to let us know a day before so we can arrange a helicopter flight to and from Lukla.
Helicopter flights back from Namche Bazar, or a scenic flight from Aba Dablam Base Camp to Everest Base Camp and up into the Khumbu glacier, then back to Lukla (Kathamdu) can be arranged.
The pearl in the Himalayas, steep and exposed awaits us:
We follow the normal route for this challenging technical peak, and fully equipped with fixed ropes the climb becomes an achievable high-altitude-via-ferrata that is well suited for intermediate recreational mountaineers. We offer you the advice, preparation and support you to achieve this climb and hopefully reach the summit of Ama Dablam.
Requirements: Participants of the expedition should be independent alpinists with a good knowledge of the common belay techniques. Experience in camping in winter conditions and knowledge of symptoms of altitude sickness to avoid them should be brought along. Experience in technical climbing and in high mountains is necessary for participation. A previous 6,000m+ / 19,500ft+ experience would be advantageous.
Technical requirements: You should be able to climb safely up to the 3rd degree of difficulty in mountain boots and be able to climb ice flanks steep up to 50°. You should know how to use a climbing clamp. Experience with abseiling eights and independent abseiling over longer distances is required.
Physical fitness: Endurance for 1,000 meters / 3,200 feet of technical ascent, approx. 6-10 hours, and subsequent descent (abseiling) is necessary. The necessary concentration during the descent must be very high due to the technical difficulties (constant danger of falling). A corresponding conditional reserve is necessary.
Danger - Warning: This expedition is associated with subjective and objective dangers. Even though we try to make the tour as safe as possible due to our many years of experience, a high degree of personal responsibility and health risk awareness is necessary. The participation of the expedition and the ascent of Ama Dablam are at your own risk and responsibility.

Preparation tour for your Ama Dablam climb
Island Peak is declared as a trekking mountain by the NMA (Nepal Mountaineering Association) and can, therefore, be climbed at relatively low costs with an NMA permit. This 6200m mountain is considered "easy" to climb among the six thousand meter peaks in Nepal and offers a good acclimatization for the Ama Dablam. Imja Tse, Nepali for Island Peak, is located in the Khumbu Valley near the border to Tibet between Baruntse and Lhotse. The impressive 3000m south face of Imja Tse can be seen from Island Peak. The ascent along the normal route is relatively easy, but requires more than "just" trekking. The last 400 heights follow a glacier flank and snow-covered ridge (mostly secured with fixed ropes) - this classic alpine high altitude terrain requires walking on crampons.
