The Island Peak Climbing Package is designed especially for climbers of all skill levels who want to combine trekking and mountaineering into one vacation. Before attempting more challenging heights, climbers with little to no prior mountaineering experience commonly choose to ascend Island Peak as their first mountain peak. Because it looked to be an island in an ice sea as seen from Dingboche, Eric Shipton's crew gave the summit the name Island Peak in 1951. When Imja Tse was given the summit's new name in 1983, Island Peak remained the most well-known.
