The Everest Base Camp is the most famous trekking route in the world, and this is a once in a lifetime opportunity to see some of the most breathtaking scenery imaginable. Nepal is a fascinating country and the trek gives an insight into the lives and culture of the Sherpa people. Our ascent is steady and well-paced to best suit the acclimatization needed. Sunrise on the snowcapped peaks above the Khumbu Glacier is an unforgettable sight from the summit of Kala Pahttar. From the glacial rivers, swing bridges and serene alpine scenery of the lower foothills to the imposing mountain faces, gigantic glaciers and lonely moonscapes of the upper altitudes, you’ll never forget the life-changing landscapes of the Everest Region.
The trek starts with a magnificent flight over the valleys and mountains of the Himalayas to Lukla. It then follows the Dudh Kosi valley to Namche Bazaar. The trail to Phorste is a gradual ascent up the valley and passes through patches of birch and rhododendron forests where the elusive musk deer can sometimes be seen. We will have an opportunity to ascend the famous summit Kala Pattar (5550m) from where the views towards Everest and the surrounding peaks are breath-taking. A truly memorable experience closely following the footsteps of legendary mountaineers.
