A beautiful morning flight to Lukla shall be taken on this day, the flight presenting you with some pretty sights of the landscape which changes gradually as you move from the capital to your destination; with the city dissolving back into the horizon and the land emerging as a vibrant shade of green with lush vegetation and foliage, and hills carving a rigged contrast to the blue sky. Then, we will begin our trek with an easy walk passing through the village of Chaurikharka and walking down towards Dudh Koshi Ghat lying at the altitude of 2,530m. Trekking along the shore of Dudh Koshi River, we will reach Phakding, where we shall stay overnight at the Guesthouse. 

We will head off from Phakding on this day, and pass through splendid forests of rhododendron, the wood blossoming rich with magnolia and aligned with fir trees. The area will be full of blooming rhododendron flowers during springtime. We will also pass through Jorsale (2,805m) and pass by the junction of Dudh Koshi and Bhote Koshi. We will be climbing for some time and will get the first glimpse of Everest if the weather is clear and the clouds part way. Ascending further, we will reach Namche Bazaar, a flourishing Sherpa village and an administrative hub of the Khumbu region. We stay overnight at a Guesthouse. 

At Namche Bazaar, we will rest to acclimatize and avoid altitude sickness. It is also recommended to experience a short hike on this day to help adjust our bodies to the raised elevation. We will, therefore, climb to Everest View Hotel which presents magnificent views of Mount Everest, Mount Ama Dablam, and more of the surrounding peaks. We will also walk to the Khunde and Khumjung villages located beneath Khumbila, the rock-strewn mountain which is considered holy by all Sherpa people. In Khunde, we can make a trip to the Edmund Hillary hospital, as well as visit the monastery in Khumjung. We will then trek back to Namche. Overnight at Guesthouse. 

We will move ahead from Namche Bazaar and continue walking all along the rushing glacial waters of the Dudh Koshi. On the way to Sanasa, we will pass by the ethereal rhododendron forests. You may also see faunas like the multi-colored pheasants, musk deer, and the Himalayan Thar. From Sanasa, we will walk on a vertical way up to the grand Tengboche Monastery. Tengboche village presents the magnificent views of Mt. Everest, Mt. Lhotse, Mt. Nuptse, Mt. Ama Dablam, and The Thamserku. Overnight at Guesthouse. 

On this day, we will trek for around 5 hours to get to Dingboche. Our trek begins with an adjacent route with the rhododendron forest from Tengboche to Debuche. We will also traverse over the raging Imja River through a suspension bridge. We will then pass by Pangboche village, the biggest village occupied by Sherpa people in the region. Here we can walk to Pangboche monastery, one of an ancient monastery. We will have quite a challenging walk in the afternoon as the scenery turns dry and deserted before reaching Dingboche. Overnight at Guesthouse. 

We will have another acclimatization day in Dingboche on this day. To get accustomed to the high altitude, we will also have a short hike to Nagerjun set at the height of 5100m just above Dingboche. We will actually have quite a demanding day as the path is steeper. It takes around 5 hours to reach Nagerjun where the stunning views of the Lobuche East (6,119m), Kangtega (6,685m), the Toboche Peak (6,367m), Lobuche West (6,145m), the Thamserku (6,608m), and Mount Ama Dablam (6,856m) will mesmerize us. Then, we will return to Dingboche. Overnight at Guesthouse. 

Leaving behind Dingboche, we will climb steeply up to Lobuche passing a chorten. We will also pass by Dugla, located at the tip of the Khumbu Glacier. With a vertical and small climb up, we will stroll to Chukpo Lari and see memorials put up in tribute to those who lost their lives in the Khumbu region. Also, the stunning vista of the huge mountains cannot be ignored. With a trouble-free walk, we will finally reach Lobuche (4,910m). Overnight at Guesthouse. 

Departing from Lobuche, on this day we will walk towards Gorakshep from Lobuche. This is an important day of the trek as we will be reaching the Everest Base Camp. Upon reaching the foot of Mt. Everest, the views of Everest, Mahalangur, Khumbutse, Lingtren, Mt. Pumori, and Mt. Nuptse will enthrall us. We will also walk further up to the top, passing the gush of Changri Glacier to get the sight of Kala Patthar, which translates to “Black Rock” in Nepali. Walking further ahead, we will reach the Everest Base Camp where we shall have an amazing time drowning ourselves in the majesty of Sagarmatha! Then, we will return to Gorakshep. Overnight at Guesthouse.
