Lobuche (4940 M) village name comes from the Lobuche peak (6119 M). It is a small village before Gorekshep. There are Few lodges in Lobuche, and they serve their customers with a friendly gestures and Sherpa culture. However, at almost five thousand meters, trekkers start feeling the effect of low oxygen and cold. Many trekkers complain it is hard even to stay there.
