Trip Overview

This Expedition is designed for those who are willing to make double 8000ers at once, which carries out high elevations including ascents of Mt. K2 and Mt. Broad Peak. The K2 and Broad Peak Expedition is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to summit two of the world's most challenging peaks climbing together in a single season. K2, also known as Savage Mountain, is the 2nd highest peak in the world and is considered one of the most difficult and dangerous mountains to climb whereas Broad Peak, the 12th highest peak in the world, is a relatively easier peak to climb than K2. This package includes all the logistical support for the duration of the expedition. You will embark on a journey that will test your physical and mental strength, and reward you with unforgettable views and a sense of accomplishment that few have experienced.

The challenge of climbing a double 8000m mountain is a major motivation that brings climbers to try to conquer these mountains. We proudly can say that we are the ones who hold a high success rate on K2 and Broad Peak. The expedition will be fully supported by a great Nepalese Sherpa team with previous experience in K2 and Broad Peak climbing and technically skilled and worked with Seven Summit Treks. The Sherpa will have perfect knowledge of climbing, risk management, friendly behavior, and be highly motivated.

K2 & BROAD PEAK (2023) Expedition Leader: Chhang Dawa Sherpa

Mr. Chhang Dawa Sherpa (July -30-1982), Expedition Manager of Seven Summit Treks is the second person among Nepalese who successfully summit 14 mountains of the world that are above 8000 meters. As in previous years, he will be leading and guiding the whole team of SST in K2 and Broad Peak, it was a great success in 2012, 2014, 2018, 2019, and 2022 under the leadership of Dawa. Under his leadership, SST conducted a successful expedition overall of 8000m peaks in Nepal, China, and Pakistan. A notable climb is K2 Winter Expedition in 2021 under his leadership.

    Mardi Himal trek. A wonderful trek ideal even for beginners. Wonderful views, great facilities. Our choice for this trek was through our honeymoon. Seven Summit Treks organized and prepared everything. Sherpa Tashi and porter Nima were great. We could talk, they always prepared everything. I have been in contact with the guys from Seven Summit Treks since the expedition to Makalu and I know that I can rely on them. Thank you for your help and wonderful experience. And see you at the next event.

    Our first co-operation was in 2013 in Pakistan with Arnold Coster expeditions and Sevensummittreks towards the Gasherbrum. After that, we continued to work together on expeditions towards Everest, Makalu, Lhotse, Manaslu (winter), and AmaDablam. For me, SST is a very professional company with a lot of experience and knowledge. We have full confidence in their capabilities and appreciate their flexibility. I would like to thank them for all those years of cooperation and I look forwards to new adventures in Nepal and Pakistan.

    I have been on many expeditions in Nepal over the years, most of them I organized with friends and used Seven Summit Treks only for their base camp services with great service! This year none of my friends were available to climb in Nepal in the Autumn season so I contacted SST and decided to sign up for the Mera Peak and Baruntse expedition. SST organized everything and provide me with a personal climbing Sherpa for the entire trip. Throughout the entire trip, everything was taken care of by SST, including lodging, tea houses, and meals. At Baruntse base camp I had a nice private tent and the cook and kitchen staff always had smiles and cooked great meals. My Sherpa (Jangbu) was great and we became close friends and climbing partners. Jangbu was always there with a smile, a very strong climber, always wanting to help in any way he could. There was plenty of time to decide how and when we were going to make a summit push based on the weather. We had fantastic summit days on both peaks and finished the trip crossing the Amphu Labste pass into the Khumbu Valley staying each night in nice lodges with all meals included. I would highly recommend using SST for any expedition that you want to go on. Thank you Seven Summit Treks for a great trip and your attention to detail!!

    My wife and I had an amazing experience with Seven Summits for the Everest Base Camp Trek. The company was extremely hospitable with a welcome dinner on day 1, including an introduction to our guide. Speaking of our guide, Phurkitar, he was simply brilliant. During the trek, he was very patient as both of us went through physical and emotional tiredness, and he ensured we reached EBC without any major issues. In addition, he helped cater to my vegan and my wife's vegetarian diets throughout the trek. Cannot compliment Phurkitar enough for all his efforts.

    Would readily book with Seven Summits again.
