Everest Base Camp Trek Info
Join with us for this classic trek to Mount Everest Base Camp and enjoy some of the most magnificent views right in front of the highest mountain in the world.Everest is a truly overwhelming sight –just one of many things that make a trek to Everest base camp the perfect trekking adventure!
We will explore the Khumbu region – the Sherpa heartland and home to Mount Everest,the world’s highest mountain with an elevation of 8,848. You’ll see many mighty peaks including Cholatse, Ama Damblam, Nuptse and Lhotse. As you trek towards your ultimate goals – Everest Base Camp and Kalapatthar – you follow the traditional route via which the British in 1951, the Swiss in 1952 and the ultimately successful expedition of 1953 including Tenzing Norgay Sherpa and Sir Edmund Hillary reached base camp.
Once you arrive in Kathmandu, our company representative will pick you up at Tribhuwan Int’l airport to transfer you to your accommodation in Kathmandu.After exploring Kathmandu,the adventure starts in earnest with the (in) famous flight to Lukla, a Sherpa village where we start the actual trek. The Everest Base Camp trek follows the course of the DudhKosi, the ‘River of Milk’, gradually climbing through forests of rhododendron and magnolia. You’ll experience the quick succession of climate and vegetation zones. After reaching Namche Bazaar, where we take a rest day, the route continues along the Imja Khola River to the valley below Everest. Following further the traditional route via Lobuche and GorakShep, we then reach our destination: the Everest Base Camp.
The Everest Base Camp Trek passes through a various small villages which gives you the opportunity to experience Sherpa customs, culture and their famed hospitality first-hand. Unsurprisingly, the photographic opportunities are limitless (so don’t forget your charger!).
When planning your itinerary to Everest Base Camp, we arrange it so there is enough time to explore Kalapatther, a great vantage point from which you have magnificent view of Everest’s south side as well as the Khumbu glacier. Most of our clients agree that this is the highlight of their experience and an essential component to the trek.
