trip information

The Everest Base Camp trek is one of the most popular treks in Nepal that too for a good reason. A magnificent flight to Lukla airport with the stunning Himalayan scenery, the world’s biggest glacier, thrilling trekking passes, and warm hospitable Sherpa culture, together with centuries-old monasteries are some of the main attractions of the Everest Base Camp trek.

Trekking to the foot of the world’s highest peak is not easy but with some willpower and an ability to walk 6-7 hours a day plus a couple of rest days in between, it’s entirely possible. The reward for all the hardship will be majestic mountain views and pristine nature. The trek will guide you through stunning landscapes, ethnic settlements, old Buddhist monasteries at Monjo, Namche, Tengpoche and Panboche, and eventually to the midst of towering peaks including but not limited to Mt. Ama Dablam, Mt. Kang Tega, Mt. Nuptse, Mt. Thamserku, Mt. Kusum Kanguru, Mt. Pumori, Mt. Lhotse, Lobuche Peak, Island Peak, Mt. Makalu and of course the breathtaking Mt. Everest itself towering to an altitude of 8,850 meters.

We look forward to taking you on a trek of a lifetime. Please see the itinerary for a day-by-day route.
