Ama Dablam (6,856m) is widely considered the most beautiful mountain in the world. Its elegant pyramid shape, draped with hanging glaciers, dominates the Khumbu skyline and draws expert climbers from around the globe.
Our founder Ang Kami Sherpa has guided on Ama Dablam 7 times, intimately knowing every pitch on the Southwest Ridge route. This is serious technical mountaineering requiring previous alpine climbing experience.
The climb involves sustained technical terrain including rock, ice, and mixed climbing. Camp 2 sits on an exposed rocky platform, and the summit push traverses the famous Grey Tower before reaching the summit mushroom — one of the most exhilarating moments in mountaineering.

I first met AK on my trip to EBC and Island Peak and can honestly say that he is an amazing and skilled person. We had such a great experience with him in Nepal that a friend flew him to Argentina to climb Aconcagua with us. There is no one I would rather be on a mountain with due to both his experience and wonderful personality. Probably don’t take swimming lessons from him 😊
We climbed with Ang Kami a few times on the exciting mountains of Nepal. We found him to be very experienced, organised, and lovely to communicate with. We always felt safe with his level of experience, and would highly recommend climbing with him and his company.
I am writing to give a positive 5/5 star review for Ang Kami and his expedition knowledge and experience. I travelled to Everest Base Camp and Island Peak with Kami and he made everything seem easy. From the moment we met he was positive and friendly and was always happy to help with whatever I needed. The entire trip was almost 3 weeks and at no time did I feel like he wasn’t supporting me or my trip and when times got tough on the mountain he made us smile and laugh. I enjoyed every minute of the trip and now consider Kami a good friend.
