Overview

14 Days Everest Base Camp Trek, one of the most popular reasons for avid adventurers to flock into the country of the Himalayas. As appealing as it may sound, the Everest Trek can give butterflies to almost all human lives on this planet. And the expedition on its trail feels like one has drifted from reality- so beautiful and jaw-dropping, picturesque views of the surreal panoramas of the mighty Himalayas provides climbers with a soul healing experience altogether. Known as “steps to heaven” for a good reason.

 

Centreing on the world’s highest peak Mt. Everest (29,029 ft/ 8,848.68m), the EBC trek is one of the finest treks in the world. Walk through the great Buddhist monasteries, preserved sacred forests, understanding the traditional Sherpa culture, rhododendron forests, high-altitude flora and fauna and of course the snow-capped mountains all can be an overwhelming experience. 

This 14 days Everest Base Camp Trek is a popular trek. We have other Luxury Everest Base Camp Trek, 16 days Everest base camp Trek, 10 Days Rush EBC trek and EBC trek and return by Helicopter.

Itinerary

Itinerary

After landing at the Tribhuwan International Airport, you will be picked up by our representative who will drop you off at the hotel. Overnight in Kathmandu.

Our journey starts with a scenic flight to Lukla. There, we will meet up with the rest of the team and begin our trek. We descend towards the Cheplung village. At Cheplung we get to see beautiful views of Mt. Khumbila. Mount Khumbila (5761m) also known as “God of Khumbu” sacred mountain which has never been climbed. Our journey then continues towards Phakding. Overnight in Phakding.

The first part of the trail is easy, we cross the Dudkoshi and walk along the path west of the river. We pass through pine forests and small villages along the way. We continue up north the Benkar valley, we cross the Dudh Koshi again and continue forwards passing through the Chumoa and Monjo villages. Once we reach Jorsalle we verify our permits. Here, you will start seeing more sights of the snow-clad mountains ahead. The last parts of the trek get tougher as we must climb a steep incline to reach the Hillary Bridge. And then, continue hiking up a steep path leading up to Namche Bazaar. Overnight in Namche Bazaar.

This day is primarily meant for an acclimatization trek to a higher altitude and then back to Namche to sleep one more night at the current altitude.  We will be hiking up to Khumjung village. It is a small but vibrant Sherpa village. There we will be visiting the Hillary School and the Khumjung Gompa where the monastery claims to have a Yeti scalp on display. After our day of exploration, we make our way back to Namche Bazaar. Overnight in Namche Bazaar.

With breakfast done, we prepare to trek up to the renowned Tengboche monastery at Tengboche village. It is the largest monastery in the region and one of the most significant ones as well. The monastery is perched in a beautiful spot on a high ridge with Mount Ama Dablam in the background. It is surrounded by pines, azaleas and colorful mountain rhododendrons, and the views are just fantastic; you can get good views of Mt. Everest, Nuptse, Lhotse, Ama Dablam, and Thamserku! Overnight in Tengboche.

The trail to Dingboche promises an outstanding views of the mountains and an awesome experience as many claim. The first part of the trail is relatively moderate with river crossings along wooden bridges, climbing up large steps through colorful gateways, and the ever-existing views of the Himalayas. The climb to Dingboche begins once we reach the Imja Valley and the Lobuche River. The trek to Dingboche is as picturesque as the village itself. Overnight at Dingboche.

Today, we will do some hiking around Dinboche. We shall ascent a ridge behind the village, from where we can get views of six of the tallest mountains in the world that includes the Lhotse, Makalu and Cho Oyu, Cholatse, Taboche peak, and other snow-clad mountains rising above the Khumbu Khola Valley, particularly Lobuche West, Lobuche East and Lhotse. The spot also offers spectacular views of the Imja Khola Valley and the attractive Dingboche village. Overnight at Dingboche.

We continue on the trail along the lateral moraine of the Khumbu Glacier and pass by stone memorials for climbers who perished in the mountains. We ascent further as we move towards the Lobuche village which is nestled under the massive Lobuche peak. Overnight at a guesthouse.

The trail to Gorak Shep is rocky and when paired with the elevation, it makes it very much tougher. Nonetheless, on Gorak Shep, you feel like you’re walking on a beach because Gorak Shep is a frozen lakebed covered with sand.
Once Gorak Shep is conquered, now it’s the part of the journey you’ve been waiting for- Everest Base Camp. The trail to EBC is also very rocky and is filled with larger rocks as we move closer towards EBC. The rocky terrain, the ascents, and descents on a glacial path, and the elevation make this trail challenging. However, the views from there and the feeling of being there away from the “world” is incredible. It isn’t more about the views but it’s more about the personal sense of achievement you get and to realize that you’ve made it!
You can see the mighty Khumbu Icefall, the upper part of the Khumbu glacier, stunning views of Nuptse, Khumbuste and Pumori, and many other Himalayan giants from EBC. We will head back to spend the night in Gorak Shep. Overnight in Gorak Shep.

The trek starts early in the morning. We walk up a slope admiring great views of Lingtren, Khumbutse, and Changtse mountains to reach Kala Patthar is a famous landmark in the region, it literally means black rock. Some would say, Kala Patthar is the highlight of the whole trip. The top of Kala Patthar, offers the best views of Mount Everest. Hikers walk early in the morning to Kala Patthar to witness the sunrise from Kala Pattar. After spending some time at Kala Pathhar, we head back down to Gorak Shep and from there down to Pheriche. Pheriche is small Sherpa village made popular by the Tshola Tsho Lake. Overnight in Pheriche.

Now, that we’re done with all the climbing, it’s time to come down. And, by down, 2,000 feet down! We descend through rhododendron, juniper and pine forests, at one-point crossing over the Dudh Koshi over a wooden bridge. We make it down to Sansa where awesome vistas of Ama Dablam, Thamserku and Nuptse mountains await. Twisting and turning through the woods we finally make it to Namche Bazaar. Overnight in Namche Bazaar.

It’s again all downhill from here. Enjoy the views and reflect upon what you just achieved in these last two weeks. It is a wonderful time to fully look back at the entire journey. After passing some rocky path, it is just a quick descent, crossing several suspensions bridges on the way until we reach our destination. We will also be passing by many monasteries, too. And finally, we make it back to Lukla. This will be the last day in the mountains! Time to rest, reflect and relax! Overnight in Lukla.

We will catch an early morning flight to Kathmandu, where we can do some last-minute souvenir shopping and some celebration! You can also check out some other places in Kathmandu, we will be assisting you with that as well. A farewell dinner is arranged to celebrate your success. Overnight in Kathmandu.

This is it, your last day in Nepal. It’s time to say goodbye, but we hope we’ll meet again! Our representative will escort you to the airport three hours before the scheduled flight.
