Khumbu Climbing Center, 2023 Phortse and beyond

Khumbu Climbing Center

Our mission is to increase the safety margin of Nepali climbers and high-altitude workers by encouraging responsible climbing practices in a supportive and community-based program.

High in the Himalayas of Nepal near the beaten track to Everest, there is a humble pastoral village called Phortse perched among the clouds.

The Khumbu Climbing Center (KCC) was launched in 2003.
Each winter for two weeks, technical climbing skills are taught along with English language, mountain safety, rescue, and wilderness first aid and more.
