Lobuche is a small settlement near Mount Everest in the Khumbu region of Nepal. As per the National Census of 2011, Lobuche village has a population of 86 locals living permanently in the highlands and there are 24 local households. It is one of the last overnight stops with lodging on the "trail to base camp", a hike that climbers make on their way to Everest Base Camp when attempting an ascent of Everest via the standard southeast route. It is also a popular stop among trekkers in the area. From there they can complete the trail on to EBC or stop at Gorak Shep, the last stop with lodging on the trail, and climb the modest nearby peak, Kala Patthar, for a rare view of the Everest summit. The structure of Everest is such that its actual summit is not visible from Base Camp.
