Everest Base Camp Trek – 15 Days

Everest Base Camp Trek takes us to the playground of sherpas, also known as Himalayan heroes, who have the capability to work and endure in some of the world’s roughest terrains and climates. Namche Bazar is the gateway to Sagarmatha and a settlement for the sherpas involved in the tourism industry. You can get access to ATMs, hotels, teahouses, and wifi. Furthermore, we can also visit the region’s largest monastery, Tengboche Monastery, the highest monastery in the Khumbu region of Nepal, and come close to four of the world’s six tallest peaks: Mt. Everest, Mt. Lhotse, Mt. Makalu, and Cho-Oyu. We begin our hike to the Everest base camp with a flight from Kathmandu to Lukla.

 

To reach EBC, expedition members or trekkers usually fly from Kathmandu to Lukla (2,806m) and pass through Namche Bazaar. Everest Base Camp is a place for mountaineers to acclimatize to the altitude and the last destination for trekkers. There are some camps along different Everest summit trails for the settlement of climbers. Mostly in spring, we can observe the preparation of the expedition team.
