Everest Background
 This
traditional Everest Base Camp trek is perhaps the most famous
in the world; ideal for those who are new to the delights of trekking
or those with limited time. Upon arrival in Kathmandu, you will
be greeted by the wonderful hustle and bustle, sights and smells
of this vibrant capital. We then make an early departure to the
famous Lukla airstrip where our journey into the heart of Nepal
begins.
You will find yourself immersed in the wonders of this beautiful
country, with its idyllic blue roofed houses, colourful prayer
flags, fragrant rhododendrons, friendly Sherpa life and breathtaking
scenery.We trek through the prosperous Namche Bazaar and many
other delightful Sherpa villages, including Thyangboche with its
impressive temple and the quieter farming village of Dingboche.
At many points along this route you will stand in awe amidst breathtaking
mountain views of one of the most beautiful peaks in the world;
Ama Dablam, leading to the towering faces of Everest itself.
We arrive at Everest Base camp and finally complete our impressive
journey with an ascent of the magnificent peak of Kalar Patar
at 5554m. You will be rewarded with an awesome 360 degree panorama
of spectacular 8000m peaks; each one framing the world’s
highest. This moment is a long-awaited and much sought after sight.
All trekking nights are in Tea Houses/Lodges, no camping.

The ultimate trek, taking in the best of the Khumbu
and Everest. We have chosen this route to enable trekkers with
a littlemore time available to complete an impressive circular
route that guarantees similar stunning views to that of our classic
Everest trek, andmore.
We approach Everest via the sacred lakes of the Gokyo Valley,
visit themagnificent viewpoint Gokyo Ri (5350m) and cross the
famous Cho La Pass (5420m) on the South side of Everest. We do
not miss the opportunity to ascend the famous summit Kalar Patar
(5554m) fromwhere the views towards Everest and the surrounding
peaks are breathtaking. The trek ends by camping at the base of
Everest, directly below the imposing Khumbu Icefall (all other
nights are in Tea Houses/Lodges). This location offers a grand
amphitheatre of rock and ice; a spectacular camp setting.We then
return to Lukla along the resplendent Khumbu Valley,with its diverse
wildlife and vegetation, as well as its rich culture. A trulymemorable
experience closely following the footsteps of legendarymountaineers.
