This trek to Everest Base Camp and Kalapatthar
offers the best this area has to offer without
taking too long. This trek is truly an incredible
experience of this magnificent region and its
fascinating people. From Lukla (2,805m/9,200ft)
we trek to Namche Bazaar (3,436m/11,270ft) for
a day of acclimatization and optional hikes. From
Namche we explore the Sherpa villages of Khunde
and Khumjung before heading for Tengboche Monastery.
After visiting Chukung Ri we trek to Lobuche for
a day-hike along the Khumbu Glacier to Everest
Base Camp (5,364m/17,600ft) and a climb of Kala
Pathar Peak (5,550m/18,200ft) for a close
encounter with Mt. Everest. Surrounded by
some of the highest mountains on the Earth you
will bask in this incredible mountain scenery
before swinging back by way of, little visited,
Phortse village to fly out of Lukla.

to difficult trek to Everest base camp starting
from 2,805m (9,200ft) to 4,940m (16,200ft) with
