The items on the menu are carefully selected to help you sustain in the high altitude rigors.
Our style of small group operation in the mountains makes it quite easier for us to pay an individual attention to the group members. While the destination in itself is impressive, it is the unrivalled experience of our professional service and attention that makes Everest Expedition a success.
Day one of the trip is your arrival day in Kathmandu, Nepal. When you arrive at Kathmandu airport, We Trek Nepal representative will welcome you and transfer to hotel. It will take more or less 20 minutes to reach hotel depending upon traffic. We will let you know about our trip briefing schedule and other essentials on your arrival at the hotel. You stay relaxed and try to adjust with the new atmosphere as a traveller. We will talk about any questions you may have at our trip briefing meeting.
We are at the elevation of 1,400 meters from sea level and are going to the top of the world. We will take this day as our acclimatization and preparation day before we head up towards the mountains. Instead of staying idle in hotel, we will take you for a wonderful day tour of Kathmandu valley. Exploring UNESCO’s cultural heritage sites in Kathmandu is the best way to know about historical, cultural and spiritual aspects of this 2 millennia old city. We will visit Swoyambhunath popularly known as the Monkey Temple that is oldest monument in Kathmandu valley, Kathmandu Durbar Square that is one of the medieval palace squares in Kathmandu valley, Boudhanath that is the largest Buddhist stupa and Pashupatinath that is a Hindu temple premises with open Hindu cremation platforms on the bank of River Bagmati. Once we are back to hotel in the afternoon, we will go for last minute gearing up for our adventure.
It is going to be our first day in the mountains today. We drive to airport early in the morning for our flight to Tenzing Hilary airstrip in Lukla. This short and spectacularly adventurous flight takes us to breathe the rejuvenating air of the Everest region. Once we land at Lukla airport, we prepare to embark on the Everest Base Camp trekking journey. Although it’s a big adventure in the mountains, we will go at ease and pace as we advance towards our next destination. Our walk to Phakding is of about 4 hours that takes us through beautiful surroundings of mountains, nature and cultural riches.
This is the day we enter the Sagarmatha National Park. We continue the trekking through Dudh Koshi valley and cross and re-cross the river over suspension bridges. The trek goes past beautiful settlements of Monjo and Jorsalle and heads up towards the destination. We will come across donkeys and yaks fetching goods up to the higher elevation. The final section of the walk today is a steady uphill to the peacefully perched Namche Bazar on the mountain slope. Namche Bazar is one of the beautiful hometowns to Sherpa people and is often considered as the Sherpa capital. This small and beautiful town is the most happening place of all in the Everest region with ATM, internet, pub, market, trekking gear shops, souvenir shops etc.
Acclimatization is highly recommended and important part of trekking in the high elevation. Namche Bazar is our first acclimatization point in the mountains. Its strategic location at the elevation of 3,440 meters above sea level is the good place to stay an extra day and adjust with the elevation before going higher. As part of our acclimatization, we take a hiking adventure to Khumjung village to explore the surroundings. Khumjung is another beautiful Sherpa village where we can explore local lifestyle amazements and monastic spirituality in addition to captivating views of the mountains. After enjoying a wonderful hike and exploration of Khumjung village, we return back to Namche Bazar for overnight stay.
We are ready now to meander through the trail to Tengboche today. It is one of the most scenic and spectacular walks of the trek. With a start on gentle and gradual ascent for a while, we start descending through rhododendron forest down to Dudh Koshi River bank only to find ourselves ascending steeply towards our destination for the day. The ascent goes through pine and rhododendron forested area to emerge into a ridgeline. Once we come to the top on the ridgeline, we follow grassy pasture to reach Tengboche for overnight stay. Tengboche village has a famous and beautiful Buddhist monastery where a huge faith and devotion of local Buddhist people can be seen. We will explore the monastery as we enjoy arresting views of the mountains that this beautiful place has to offer us.
The walk today involves meandering through up and down the mountain and brings wonderful surroundings to our sight. The trail meanders up and down the mountain through Deboche, Imja Khola, Pangboche and eventually to Dingboche. Traversing the trail through beautiful places and surroundings, we might make a brief stop at Pangboche village to explore the oldest monastery in the region. After Pangboche, it’s an uphill walk to Dingboche village that lies just below the spectacular Mt. Ama Dablam (6,812m). The view and the awesome surroundings make us forget all the tiredness of about six hours of trekking in the Himalaya.
Dingboche is the second and the last acclimatization point before adventuring further to Everest Base Camp and Kalapatthar vantage point. While still spending an extra day here at Dingboche, we leave no chance to explore the surroundings. We will go for an awesome hike to Nagarjun hill, which is also a wonderful vantage point. A full day of exploration of the surroundings and spending an extra night at Dingboche well prepares us for our further trekking adventure to the base camp.
Lobuche stands ahead of us as our destination for the day. We have already trekked high enough to see grassy pastures, glacial moraines and high boulder strewn landscapes instead of green vegetation. Rocky and craggy trails with mountainous surroundings with no sign of modern day happenings, the atmosphere feels in the real wilderness. Yet, the feeling of being into such a peaceful and magnificent place on earth is difficult to explain. We tread the glacial moraine filled trail to Lobuche via Thukla to stay our overnight there. Lobuche is a small settlement where the route via Gokyo Lakes and Cho La pass also meets to go to the Everest Base Camp.
We trek to Gorakshep today to stay overnight. A gradual ascent on the trail takes us to Gorakshep below Kalapatthar. We take an easy time around Gorakshep.
This is another day of excitement as we will hike to the highest elevation of the trip. Early morning hike to Kalapatthar vantage point at the elevation of 5,545 meters above sea level takes us to the highest point on the trip. We will be closely right in front of the Himalayan panorama and Mt. Everest like we were never before. The breathtaking view will be even more arresting while the morning sun casts the hues upon those mighty mountains. Later, we trek all the way to the Everest Base Camp and where our base for several days of acclimatization will be established.
Trek back to Pheriche after the climbing.
This day on the return journey is one of the longest walking days when we trek to Namche Bazar to stay overnight. Even when we are walking back towards lower elevation, the surroundings look equally magical and thoroughly appealing. We still have so much to see and enjoy that that long day walk doesn’t even feel a bit. Once we reach Namche, we can take a relaxing wandering around the village.
We continue of the final day of trekking and head towards Lukla. Meandering mostly on the downhill trail, we follow the Dudh Koshi valley again to reach Lukla. We check out the amazing Sagarmatha National Park at Monjo and continue towards the destination. Once we reach Lukla and check into the guest house, we will have time to wander around and take a relaxing moment. A big walking adventure in the mountains has come to end today. Big thanks to the awesome team of porters and guide who tirelessly worked so hard to make sure that things are well taken care of.
We say goodbye to mountains today as we fly back to Kathmandu. A wonderfully peaceful adventure has come to end yet it has left a life lasting impression upon us. With the memory and love for mountains and people there, we fly back to Kathmandu where we will have time to find a soothing relaxing after trek massage or just chill around.
This additional day is to cover any possible delay or cancellation of the flight to Lukla and back which is a usual thing in this flight sector due to weather condition. If this contingency day is not used, it’s a free day in Kathmandu to do some activities or just spend a relaxing day.
We have come the final day of the big Everest Expedition and we hope that you enjoyed the adventure. Now, it’s the time to say a departing goodbye for this time with the hope to see you soon for next adventure. We will drive you to airport 3 hours before your flight schedule.
