Pumori is a popular climbing peak in the Mahalangur region of the Himalayas bordering Nepal and Tibet. The Pumori mountain lies about 8 kilometers West of Mount Everest. Pumori Peak is easily distinguishable by its conspicuous  pyramid structure. Pumori can be clearly from Kala Pathar which is also an amazing view point for Mount Everest. 

Pumori was named by George Mallory. Pumori means “Mountain Daughter” in Sherpa language. The first successful ascent of Pumori was made on 17th May 1962 by Gerhard Lenser and his team. Pumori expedition offers walking through the enchanting trails of Everest Base Camp exploring rural mountain life and unique Sherpa cultures not to mention the alluring views of Mount Everest, Lhotse, Cho Oyu and many more.

The expedition begins with a magnificent flight to Lukla viewing some of tallest mountains in the world like Mount Everest, Mount Lhotse, Mount Cho Oyu and so on.
