Kathmandu is a city rich with historical monuments, ancient temples and museums. Our guide will prepare you for the upcoming Everest Trek with required information at the end of the day.

Today we will start our journey and fly to Lukla, which approximately takes 30 minutes. Lukla will be our first step towards Khumbu region. Your porters will be waiting to welcome you at Lukla. Everything – breakfast/lunch etc. – will be setup on your arrival at the Lukla tea house. Lukla is a developed village where most modern facilities are available.

We will start our walk towards Phakding village after a quick breakfast/lunch. The walk takes 3-4 hours. The trekking route is trouble free and flat at this stage. You will meet Sherpa villages, agricultural farms and Yak sheds on the way. We will follow the trail of Dudh Koshi river and then the Thado-Khola route to reach Phakding. You will get a clear view of Mt. Kusum Kangaru on the way.

Phakding is a beautiful and small village which consists of numbers of accommodation for lodgers and trekkers. We can find lodges of all range here.

Namche Bazaar is our next stop. Namche Bazaar is the gateway to Everest Base Camp and the most developed town in Everest region. We need to cross the Dudh Koshi river multiple times to move forward, which we will do via high suspension bridges. We will pass through Monjo Village and we will reach the entrance of Everest National Park after trekking for a while. Your trekking permits will be checked here.

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.

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.

We will have an early breakfast and restart our Everest Trek. Tengboche is a popular place in Everest region. The reason for its fame are the ancient Buddhist monasteries, where many visitors come for Yoga and peaceful meditation. You can also enjoy the spectacular view of the sun setting in the mountains from Tengboche. Tengboche is also famous for the glazing and shining views of Mt. Everest, Mt. Lhotse, Mt. Nuptse, Mt. Amadablam etc.

Our next stop is Dingboche. Dingboche is a small valley surrounded by hills. It is also known as the gateway to Island Peak –  one of the most popular trekking peaks in the Himalayas. The path to reach Dingboche is not easy because most of the path is uphill and difficult. Dingboche is a moderately populated village where you can find numerous lodges of normal to high standards. Food of all variety is served by the lodges here. It will take 4-5 hours of trekking to reach Dingboche.

We will spend a full day in Dingboche toady for acclimatization and final preparation for trek to Everest Base Camp (EBC). You can consult with your guide on how to spend your leisure time. If you have time then you can pay a short visit to Chukung Village. Chukung is a beautiful small village and lies on the road to Island peak. Dingboche is a popular resting place for travelers to Everest, Amadablam and Imja Tse (Island) peaks. The beautiful Imja river, originated from the glacial melt of Imja mountain snow, flows through Dingboche.

The altitude will start to increase on the way towards Lobuche. The uphill trail and high altitude makes the path a bit difficult. You will encounter a graveyard on the way. The graveyard is the memorial of the climbers of the mountains of Everest region – mostly Everest climbers. Lobuche is used by many trekkers to acclimatize for the altitude of Kalapatthar and Everest Base Camp.

We will set our goal towards Gorakshep after a night at Lobuche. The path becomes scarier and dangerous from this point onward because we will have to walk on moraine of glaciers. We will walk along the side of Khumbu Glacier, which is one of the largest glaciers in the world. The altitude also starts to increase sharply. We are marveled by the close view of mountains like Mt. Everest, Mt. Nuptse, Mt. Lhotse, Mt. Pumori, Mt. Amadablam and many other small peaks despite of the prevailing hardships.

We will see a number of gravestones in the memories of dead climbers at Everest Base Camp. The reason for the huge number of death in Everest region is because the trails often leads to false ways due to the movements of glaciers and heavy snowfall. The camp may get crowded at peak season. We will head back to Gorakshep, which takes 2-3 hours.

We will trek towards Kalapatthar today. We will move early in the morning so that we can enjoy the breathtaking view of beautiful sunrise over the mountains. The reason the place is called Kalapatthar is because there are big black rocks in the place.  People usually call Everest a shy mountain because it is seen hiding in between two mountains from Kalapatthar.

We will start our trek towards Pangboche through Gorakshep after spending sometime at Kalapatthar. The return path will be downhill and easy. We will walk about 9-10 hours today.

We will have an early breakfast and start our journey towards Namche Bazaar via the trails of Dudh Koshi River. The spectacular view of the mountains will be with us throughout the trek.  We will have to walk for 6-7 hours to reach Namche Bazaar.

We will move towards Lukla via Phakding. We will take the same path which we took on the way up. You will view the mountains for the last time and wave them goodbye. Our guides will arrange the flight tickets back to Kathmandu. The night will be the last night of your trekking. You say goodbye to your guide and porters. You may shop for souvenirs at local antique shops.

We will fly back to Kathmandu today. The flight is short, taking only about 45 minutes, therefore you’ll have ample time for activities in Kathmandu. You can enjoy a wonderful musical and cultural evening in Thamel. Before that, we can explore the inner part of Kathmandu – which includes many ancient temples and monasteries.

We will drop you at the airport after a traditional ceremony marking your departure. You will head back to your destination from there.
