The journey commences with a remarkable flight into Lukla Airport at an elevation of 2,860 meters. Immediately upon arrival, you’ll embark on a 3 to 4-hour trek to Phakding. Don’t be fooled by the deceiving simplicity, this is the Himalayas, and each day offers it’s own unique set of trials! Expect to be walking for around 5 hours a day, although some days will extend to 7 or 8 hours. With a landscape marked by alpine forests, settlements, rapid glacier-fed rivers, and mountains, every day introduces a new spectacle to wonder at.
Notable experiences of the trek include visiting the renowned Namche Bazaar, the gateway to numerous Everest expeditions; touring the Tengboche Monastery, the region’s biggest monastery; ascending the Everest viewpoint at Kalapatthar; and, naturally, standing at Everest Base Camp.
The walk from Gorakshep to Base Camp, and back is a laborious 6 to 7 hours on rocky terrains formed by glacial deposits. All the while, you are enveloped by the imposing presence of Mount Everest, Nuptse, Lhotse, Ama Dablam, Thamserku, and additional peaks.
