The Summit

Climb the height of the world's highest mountain from wherever you live. Ninety days, one enormous number, the most coveted trophy in the range.

Base to Summit follows the classic South Col route, camp by camp. As your elevation gain adds up, you move from Base Camp to the Khumbu Icefall, the Lhotse Face and, finally, the summit.

It's a serious commitment, and a genuinely transformative one. Expect to hike, climb stairs and seek out hills three or four times a week.
