Overview 

The Everest Base Camp Trek is an amazing adventure of two weeks to the Everest Base Camp and back, truly a lifetime dream journey for many western travelers. As the highest peak in the world, Everest is on the must-visit list for people throughout the world. Even if they want to, most people won’t be able to get to the top of the world for various reasons; sheer difficulty, budget limitations, or health issues. But what most people can in fact accomplish is a trek to its base camp.

Undoubtedly, the Everest Base Camp Trek is the most popular trek in Nepal, attracting thousands of local and international visitors every year. Our 2-week long journey starts with the flight from Kathmandu to Lukla, followed by the trek to Phakding. The next day, we will enter the Sagarmatha National Park as we trek past Monjo. This UNESCO Natural Heritage Site is a protected area that covers an area of 1,148 square kilometers. We will trek through this area which is home to a variety of exotic Himalayan flora and fauna for most of our trek.

Eventually, we will reach Namche Bazaar, a popular market town that is also called the gateway to Everest since most if not all trekkers pass through here. Passing through a number of major Sherpa villages such as Tengboche, Dingboche, Lobuche, and Gorak Shep, we will eventually reach the main highlight of our trek at the Everest Base Camp (5,364m). 

Standing at the foot of the highest peak in the world will be a humbling and memorable experience. The very next morning, we will hike up to Kala Patthar which is an even better location in terms of scenery. This place is known as a photographer’s paradise as it sports a breathtaking panorama of peaks all around including Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, Changtse, Pumori, Ama Dablam, and more. These two days are undoubtedly the most important and rewarding ones on the Everest Base Camp Trek. 

Soon after, we will begin the return journey and reach the Sherpa capital Namche in just a couple of days. In doing so, we will have another chance to experience the fascinating lifestyle and culture of the Sherpa people. Another day of trekking leads us back to Lukla, where we will catch the scenic flight back to Kathmandu. With this, our 14 Day Everest Base Camp Trek is successfully completed.

Best Time for Everest Base Camp Trek 

Everest Base Camp Trek is one of the best treks in Nepal without a doubt. Selecting the best time to go on this trek is an important decision. For the average trekker, the spring and autumn seasons are the best seasons for sure. These periods that last from March to May and September to November are also peak seasons for trekking and tourism in Nepal. This is because these periods have the ideal condition for traveling. From pleasant weather to clear skies, lush natural beauty, and amazing views, there is nothing more to ask for. 

The winter months (December, January, and February) are a unique time to trek to the Everest Base Camp. As this is the off-season, the trails are relatively empty and the base camp is similar since nobody is attempting to scale Everest. This means low prices for everything including food and accommodation. However, there is a reason this is the off-season. The temperatures drop to subzero and there tends to be a lot of snowfall as well. As such, trekking during this time can be tougher and is only suitable for the more experienced trekkers.

The monsoon season, also known as the summer season is similar to winter for trekking to EBC. The trek will be tougher and the wet trails will be tougher to navigate but it can still be done with proper equipment, effort, and experience. And for those who do, off-season discounts, uncrowded trails, and stunning views await.

Everest Base Camp Trek Difficulty

Everest Base Camp trek is a moderately difficult trek. The trek lasts for 2 weeks, beginning with the flight from Kathmandu to Lukla and gradually climbing up to the Everest Base Camp. The highest altitude is reached at EBC or more frequently at Kala Patthar (5,545m). Proper acclimatization is necessary to be able to complete this trek. 

With some training and physical preparation, most people can complete this trek even if they have no prior trekking experience. However, if you are not fit or have some health issues, it is recommended to consult with us or your doctor first before planning this trek.
