About Trip:
Everest Base Camp Trek is an adventurous excursion in the Everest Himalayan region. It is one of the best-renowned destinations for adventure lovers around the world. Heading through the natural and cultural vistas of the Sagarmatha National Park, the trek offers a lifetime experience of the exploration of the 8000-meter peaks along with the Tibetan Buddhist culture of the Sherpa communities.
Flying with an adventure flight from Kathmandu to Lukla, your muscle stretches with an up and down trail that ultimately turns out to be a gradual uphill route. The greeneries, in the beginning, transform into grassy lands and the glacial parts of the alpine Khumbu zone.
The steel bridges and the uphill route pass through the Sherpa habitats around the Namche Bazaar, Khumjung, Pangboche and Tengboche. Ancient monasteries and chhortens are worth exploring. Ethnic hospitality and the daily lifestyles brilliantly entice you to explore its prosperity.
The majestic peaks of the Khumbu region allure you with their exposed beauties. Mt. Everest, Lhotse, Makalu, Thamserku and the surrounding mountains awestruck you with their beauty. Everest Base Camp via Lobuche and Gorakshep is a challenging hike that requires physical fitness and acclimatization.
Kalapatthar is another excellent viewpoint in the Khumbu region, along with the sunrise view over the snow-capped Himalayas. The trek goes down the same route to Lukla, and you fly back to Kathmandu.
The best seasons for the Everest Base Camp Trekking are March to May and September to November. Adventure High Pass operates this trek with experienced guides, a standard itinerary and required paper works. Please, feel free to contact us for more details.

The early morning flight to Lukla from Kathmandu takes about half an hour. Lukla is a gateway to trekking in the Everest region. Managing the stuff and meeting the team, we head towards Phakding, which is an easy walk. It will be a good backup for the walk tomorrow. Overnight at lodge.
After breakfast, the trek begins from Phakding, following the Dudh Koshi River bank. The trail is up and down, which also includes the rocky part. Heading through the forest and crossing some suspension bridges, we reach Manju, and our journey begins through the Sagarmatha National Park area. The steep uphill trail leads us to Namche Bazaar, along with the beautiful view of the Himalayas. Overnight at lodge.
With the increasing altitude, Namche Bazaar is the best place for acclimatization rest. Also, it is a bustling town in Khumbu with all types of shops; in a way, it is a marketing hub in Khumbu. Syangbuche airstrip, Khunde, Khumjung and the surroundings will make our day unforgettable, along with the spectacular view of Khumbila peak. Overnight at lodge.
Heading from Namche with great excitement on your feet and mind after breakfast, the dazzling sceneries of the Everest region energize us, including Mt. Everest, Ama Dablam, Thamserku and more. Exploring the things around, we keep on moving uphill and to Sansa. Walking through the woods, the next destination we reach is Phunki Tenga and ultimately Tengboche. We take an overnight stay at a lodge.
With the spiritual energy and the excellent breakfast, the excursion begins through the jig jag trail over and leaving it behind, we set to Dingboche. The path guides us through the woods and the alpine vegetation. The trail sets through the stone steps and crosses a bridge at Syomare that we head steadily through the flat course to Dingboche. Overnight at lodge.
Heading from Dingboche, we walk through the steep trail to Thukla Pass and cross the Khumbu Glacier region that will indulge us for a few hundred meters of climbing. While walking, we can see the Everest climbers' memorials that have passed away during the Everest expedition trip. We reach Lobuche in about an hour from the pass and rest there. Overnight at lodge.
A good morning breakfast fills the energy to the adventure hearts. Beginning the trek from Lobuche, we reach the Gorakshep in about 3 hours and stop for lunch. It is the last human settlement in this region. Then we put our baggage there, take a day pack and hike to the Everest base camp that offers breathtaking views of Nuptse, Pumori, Khumbutse and others. From 5364 meters of EBC, we hike down to Gorakshep. Overnight at lodge.

Everest, Lhotse, Ama Dablam and the surrounding scenery look magnificent. Then we hike down to Gorakshep and trek down to Pangbuche. Overnight at lodge.
It's a steady downhill trek after breakfast at Pangbuche. Following the trail through the woods of juniper and rhododendron, we head along the River. We get insight into the Himalayan goat and Pheasants on the way. Gradually, we descend to the Namche Bazaar. Overnight at lodge.
From Namche, we set out through the steep downhill route, which can be a bit demanding as the legs will be shaky. Checking out from Manju and Phakding, trek back to Lukla and relax. Why not a small celebration before we fly back to Kathmandu? Overnight at lodge/hotel.
We fly back to Kathmandu from Lukla in the morning and transfer to the hotel. Enjoy your day with a shower, massage and hang out. Overnight at the hotel.
