14 days Everest Base Camp Trek

Our agency representatives will welcome you at the Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu. Kathmandu is at an average altitude of 1,300 m from sea level. The city is a valley surrounded by lush green hills on all sides. Between the hills lies an ancient civilization, the roots of which extend back for millennia.

The evening before welcome dinner we explain all details about the Trip. Then you will have a welcome dinner from our Agency.

We will commence your long awaited trip today. The first step is an early morning mountain flight from Kathmandu to Lukla (2853M) situated in the eastern part of Nepal.

The flight is only about 30 minutes long but we prefer to start early because the morning mountain flight reveals a range of towering mountains in their full majesty, glistening to the first rays of the sun.

We will have our lunch in Lukla and also meet our porters there. Once we are all done in Lukla, we will start a trek towards Phakding village.

We will first follow the Dudh Koshi river and then navigate the trails of Thado Khola, a rivulet, before reaching Phakding. Phakding is a wonderful little village of the Sherpa people. The lifestyle is rustic and a welcome respite from the hustle and bustle of the chaos back in the everyday parts of the world.

The walk gets harder today because our destination is Namche Bazaar, a good six to seven hours of walk ahead from Phakding. Namche Bazaar is also known as the gateway town to Everest.

Our journey mostly passes through deciduous forests in the first phase. Rhododendron, the national flower of Nepal, turns the whole mountainside red if we happen to be trekking from around February to April.

The Dudh Koshi river is our constant companion for the day as we will cross the river multiple times. As we get past the small village of Monzo, we will reach the entrance of the Sagarmatha National Park.

Everest National Park was formed to protect and conserve the beautiful environment of the region. You will get the first sight of Mt. Everest from the path ahead. The trekking path offers view of mountains such as Mt. Thameserku, Mt. Kusum Kangaru, Mt. Lhotse, Mt. Tawache etc. You will have the colorful vision of beautiful Namche Bazaar after trekking a long uphill path.

Since we have embarked on an arduous tour, we need to take things slowly so we will spend the day resting and acclimatizing at Namche Bazaar.

We will acclimatize today and prepare ourselves for the trek to Everest. You can have a chat with your guide regarding how to spend your leisure time. Guides normally suggest you pay a visit to the Everest View Point Hotel.  Mt. Everest, Mt. Lhotse, Mt. Thamserku, Mt. Kusum Kangaru and Amadablam are on clear view from Everest View Point Hotel. You can visit the local Sherpa museum where you will get valuable information about the culture, way of living and history of the Sherpas.

Afrer Breakfast at guesthouse We will trek to Tengboche. The path is Gradual at first part and  down to Dudh koshi River we meet Phunkithanga and we up to the Tengboche Village and left side beautiful Monastery waiting for us. The Monastery has great importance to the Sherpa people and is a spiritual center with high importance placed on the ancient esoteric methods of yoga and meditation.

Tengboche is a popular place in Everest region. Tengboche is also famous for the glazing and shining views of Mt. Everest, Mt. Lhotse, Mt. Nuptse, Mt. Amadablam etc.

Our destination for the day is Dingboche, a beautiful little valley juxtaposed between many mountains of moderate altitude. We will start the trek following breakfast.

Our trek passes through the wonderful village of Pangboche and Somare . These villages are characterized by beautifully maintained houses, farms, stupas, chhortens and monasteries. We will have ample time to stop by and share words with villagers.

One the way to Dingboche we will see the Massive view of Amadublam Muntain at right side .We will spend the night in Dingboche. Getting out and watching the starry sky on a pollution free night is an option but you will need to consider fatigue and cold before trying this.

Today After Breakfast we go to hike Nagarjuna hill about 5000 m. it takes about 3/4 hours in total. This walk will good for us to Acclimatize our body in this altitude. One the way we will see beautiful Imja valley and Pheriche valley and Massive Amadablam, island peak, Tawache peak, Cholatse Peak, Mt, Makalu, Lobuche peak etc.

We Back from the day hike to Nagarjuna hill and have lunch in our Guesthouse ands and Our second part of the day, we can rest in our Guest house.

The day consists of one of the hardest parts of the trek. We will walk right through the Khumbu valley. The first part of the trek is slightly downhill. We will cross an icy glacial lake and then the path starts to get uphill.

After ascending for a short while, we will reach a place known as Dugla. We will also come across a graveyard on our way today which is also called Thukla pass, which serves as a memorial for deceased climbers, mostly consisting of people who perished on their way to and from Everest.

Once we cross Dugla, we will head straight up towards the Khumbu Glacier. The path will get narrower, slipperier, and more challenging as we move forward. However, once we get to the top of the ridge, the view is breathtaking. After 2 hours walk from Thukla, we arrive at Lobuche for overnight stay.

After Early Breakfast in guesthouse we will have to first trek to a small settlement called Gorakshep. The path leads through glacier moraines and can be confusing if you have no one to accompany you. Safety is of paramount importance at this point.

We will slowly walk through the small pathways along the Khumbu Glacier, with the magnanimous Everest towering right before our eyes. We will rest for a while at Gorakshep before heading towards Everest Base Camp (EBC).

Everest Base Camp is simply surreal with mountains like Pumori, Lhotse and Nuptse competing with Everest in terms of which peak is the most spectacular one. We will spend some time watching the panoramic view of the mountains, taking photographs, and catching breaths, although your breath would already have been taken away by the majesty of the surroundings.

Please note that the Base Camp can often get crowded in peak season. Since the Base Camp is quite desolate, there are no permanent alternatives for settlement. We will trek back to Gorakshep for the night.

A new day and a new thrill awaits. Today we will trek to Kala Patthar, the highest altitude point in our trek. Kala Patthar offers a unique vantage point – watching Everest as it lies semi hidden between other mountains, thus earning its nickname as the shy mountain.

Kala Patthar is situated at an altitude of 5,545 m. The high altitude means that there is non-existent vegetation and the place is characterized by large black boulders – thus earning its name as Kala (black) Patthar (Rock) in Nepali language. The View from here is Spectacular of Everest Nuptse, Lhotse, Amadublam, Pumori etc. full of Hight mountains around you.

Kala Patthar was also a place that hosted the highest altitude climate change summit in the world – an initiative by Nepal Government to raise awareness about the issues facing the Himalayas. It is better if we make the trip to Kala Patthar early because we will have an important headstart for the long day ahead.

After spending a few beautiful moments at Kala Patthar, we will take an alternative route towards Pangboche village. The trek now is mostly downhill and we have left the most difficult part of the tour behind.

We now enter the verdant tranquility of the forest region again. This part of the trek is about 15 km long but since we will mostly be going downhill, we can easily complete the trek with little effort.

Many trekkers often forget to take photographs of the trail while walking uphill because of the hardship accompanied with the journey. Walking downhill is the right time to take photographs if you missed the opportunity during the first time.

We will reach Namche Bazaar following a long day of walking. We will rest at Namche Bazaar and relive all the beautiful memories of the trek.

We will head back towards Lukla today. Since the trek is totally downhill with only a few stretches of upward walking, we can make it to Lukla for the night with stopping at Phakding for Lunch break.

After lunch continue to Lukla  it takes 2 -3 hours more or less .We will spend the rest of the day in Lukla. Lukla is a busy place and there are many things to immerse yourself in. Buying souvenirs from the trip is one popular tourist experience as Lukla has many shops to cater to your needs.

We will end the Everest Base Camp (EBC) Trek today with a flight from Lukla to Kathmandu. You will relive the mountain flight experience once again. Drive from Airport to hotel and rest or the day free for you rest or shopping or whatever your choice.

There are two options for you now. If you wish to return back to your country or elsewhere, our representatives will accompany you to the airport and bid you farewell.

However, if you wish to continue the Nepal chapter of your holiday and visit other places, please convey your wishes to us as we can make suitable arrangements.
