EVEREST BASE CAMP TREKKING

The Mount Everest or the Solu Khumbu region is the second most popular trekking area in Nepal . It would probably the most popular destination to the people all around the world. This region is justifiably famous, not only for its proximity to the world's highest mountain (8848m) but also for its Sherpa people, picturesque villages great variety of cultures and traditions, colorful festivals and monasteries. The flora and fauna are other ornaments of the Sagarmatha National Park . The story of the yeti is still a mystery to the world from the Khumbu region. The main highlight of the trekking that we offer is the visit to the Everest Base Camp at an elevation of 5340m. An Everest trek involves a tremendous amount of up and down walking. All the rivers in this part of Nepal flow south from Himalayan glaciers, but the trek route proceeds east. Therefore the trail must climb to the ridge that separates two rivets, descend to the river itself and ascend the next ridge. Most of our trips start with a scenic flight landing you at the airstrip of Lukla 2850m from where you begin your walking to the sherpa villages and ends up with the another scenic flight back to Kathmandu offering that view at a lifetime.

Your objective is to visit Everest Base Camp (5400), scene of so many triumphs and tragedies or even more challenging, Kalapathar (5545 m) with its superb view of Everest, the Khumbu Glacier and the surrounding peaks. This is for those who have dreamed of seeing Everest close up.

After a welcome dinner at one of the Nepal 's finest restaurants and explore the unique sections of the old city. We fly to Lukla, an experience in itself, and enter the world of Sherpas. We walk along side the Dudh Koshi ( River of Milk ) up to memorable villages like Namche, the Sherpa “Capital”. Visit holy Thyangboche Monastery, which sits on a high meadow in the lee of Ama Dablam. The trail is ever upward, skirting formidable glaciers and neat sherpa villages. The temperature droops and we are in a frozen world of stone houses, iced rivers and stunning beauty. On returning to Lukla after your mountain high, bid farewell to your gracious sherpa hosts and set off on the spectacular flight back to Kathmandu. There is time to reflect on your adventure and explore this exotic city for yourself. The outlined itinerary goes as follows:
