Introduction: The adventure of trekking in the Everest region
starts with a flight into the tiny airstrip of Lukla.
Spend several days trekking through the homelands of the Sherpa people, among their villages and Buddhist monasteries, with views of Everest and neighbouring Ama Dablam, considered by many to be among the most beautiful mountains in Nepal. Stroll around Namche Bazaar, the bustling market
town in the heart of Sherpa country and soak up the magnificent mountain scenery.
Without doubt, the highlights of the trek are the awe-inspiring views of some of the biggest mountains in the world which unfold the further you venture into the Khumbu valley; not forgetting, of course, the personal sense of achievement in reaching the Everest Base Camp.
Trekking in the Khumbu Valley and Gokyo Ri takes you to the most dramatic and interesting parts of the Everest region, and rewards you with dramatic landscapes, beautiful views of the Gokyo Lakes, spectacular mountain views with four mountains above 8000metres - Cho Oyu, Everest, Lhotse and Makalu, and the tremendous view of Ngozumpa glacier.
Please note: This trek is physically demanding and requires an above average level of fitness. Some trekking experience is recommended. Please discuss your suitability with your consultant if you have any concerns before booking.
