The trail will start off relatively easy but will gradually become harder. You will be able to get your first glimpse of Everest as you are crossing the mighty Dudh Koshi. As you proceed further, the trail will lead you to Monjo where you could make a lunch stopover. The next part of the trail will be more difficult. The trail becomes vertical and the altitude will add on as we head towards Namche, leaving one with shortness of breath. One should not increase the walking pace but rather progress slowly and steadily. You will be making a pit stop at Namche Bazaar overnight. The people of and around the Solukhumbu region conjugate in this area to do business. There are facilities of shops, restaurants, hotels, a bank, and internet services that enable you to get in touch with your loved ones, friends, and relatives.

 Namche Bazaar is also known as the Sherpa Capital. You can use your time to acclimatize, relax and explore the surrounding places. Most of the trekkers prefer to get up before sunrise to view the magnificent views of Mount Everest, Thamserku, AmaDablam, and other glorious peaks from the Sagarmatha National Park. One can get a chance to observe the shadow of the mountains being projected onto the clouds above and truly appreciate their magnitude. As an energy supplier, one should try salt-butter tea and Champa – a kind of barley often consume by the sherpas in the region. The lively cultural Saturday market is worth a visit and is usually full of traders who are trying to desperately sell off their products.

 Today's walking will start through the old but still used, Everest Expedition Trail. The trail is a winding smooth path that offers a fantastic view of Mt. Everest (8,848 m), Thamserku (6,618 m), and AmaDablam peak standing at 6,856m located exactly at the east side of Mt. Everest, and leads you upwards through a thick forest of rhododendron. There is a high probability of you, coinciding with Himalayan wildlife like musk deer, Himalayan Tahr, pheasants, monkeys, etc. The lovely aroma of Juniper bush welcomes you and shows the way toward Tengboche.

Tengboche is famous for the Buddhist Monastery (where you can attend the daily puja) and the viewpoint. The Tengboche Monastery is the largest in the Khumbu region. Many young Buddhist monks live and receive an excellent education there. From the courtyard, you can see spectacular sunrises and sunsets.

 Beyond Tengboche, you can feel the altitude difference which might affect you. The trail to Pheriche leaves one wanting more. The trail drops down to Debuche, crosses the ImjaKhola, and climbs past many unique Mani stones in Pangboche. The stones have carvings of the famous Tibetan Buddhist chant (Om Mani Padme Hum) that virtually speak about the rich culture of the area. Pangboche was the original settlement of the Sherpa in the Khumbu region. Due to the pressure of famine and feudal conflict, they migrated from Kham, in eastern Tibet. PangbocheGompa is the original Gompa established by Lama Dorje, who guided the Sherpas from Kham to Khumbu. The Gompa is worth visiting and donating some money to the lama will ensure the viewing of some Yeti relics. The village is the best place for a stopover for lunch. The trail then climbs to Pheriche which stands at 4240 m.
