We will start early morning and we will be travelling from Kathmandu to Ramachep airport for an early morning flight to Lukla (2,800m). After a thrilling 20 minute flight, we reach the Tenzing-Hillary Airport at Lukla.. Upon arrival at Lukla, we meet our other crew members, and after some packing and arrangements, we start our trek from Lukla to Phakding

Today trail  takes us along the Dudh Koshi River through many suspension bridges, one of which is the famous Hillary Suspension Bridge. First, we catch the wonderful glimpse Mt. Thamserku (6,618 m). We will cross the small villages of Benkar, Chumoa, and Monjo, we will reach the check post and entrance to Sagarmatha National Park. We pass through the last village of Jorsale before reaching Namche Bazaar. From Jorsale the trail climbs through the forests until we reach the confluence of the Dudh Koshi and Bhote Koshi rivers. After a final steep ascent of about two hours, we get the first view of Mt. Everest. We will take rest here to admire the view. We still need to hike about 1.5 hours to reach Namche Bazaar, a gateway to Mt. Everest and the main trading centre of this region.

Namche Bazaar is the capital of the Khumbu region. You will get the first Everest Viewpoint. You will be trekking through Sagarrmatha National Park. There are lots of shops in Namche Bazaar. One can buy souvenirs on the way back.

Today will be our first of the two days set aside for “acclimatization.”. We hike to Everest viewpoint and will come comeback to Namche Bazaar and it will take 3-4hrs .Namche Bazzar is the main centre of the Everest (Khumbu) region and has government offices, ATMs, Internet cafes, shops, restaurants, a bakery, and a colourful market.

Today we will trek to Debuche, enjoying a superb view of Mt. Everest, Mt. Nuptse, Mt. Lhotse, Mt. Ama Dablam and a close-up view of Thamserku. The trail today is more or less smooth with few ascents and descents.. The trail goes gradually down up to Kayangjuma. After having a relaxed lunch at Phunki Thenga, we gear up for a slightly tougher climb through the pine forests before we reach Tengboche.

One will start to feel the effects of altitude on this day. All the way to Thyangboce the beautiful scenery surrounds you. There is also a beautiful monastery which you can visit. You can see Everest/Lhotse massif and AmaDablam. 

Today we will head to Dingboche and will cross the  Pangboche village. We pass through several Chortens and Mani walls and small villages. The place where we stop for lunch allows a fantastic close-up view of Mt Ama Dablam. In the afternoon, we walk north to Pheriche or take the eastward trail beneath the towering north face of Mt Ama Dablam. From here onwards, the walk is fairly moderate as we enter the Imja Valley. The valley gradually unfolds as we approach the confluence of the Lobuche River. We descend into the river and begin the last and steepest climb of the day up to Dingboche.

We spend our second day of acclimatization at Dingboche. A refreshing breakfast while admiring a looming Ama Dablam (6,856m) to the south is fantastic. To better appreciate Mt Ama Dablam, Mt Lhotse and numerous other peaks visible from Dingboche, we climb the ridge on the north behind the village. This will be an ideal acclimatizing trek. We can see three of the world’s six highest peaks, Mt Lhotse, Mt Makalu, and Mt Cho Oyu. To the west, loom the towering peaks of Cholatse (6440 m) and Taboche (6542 m). As we look northwest, we see an array of peaks rising at the head of the Khumbu Khola valley.

After breakfast, we pass through the valley and will have  lunch  at Thukla. After trekking for an hour, we reach the memorial of Scott Fischer (American mountaineer) and Babu Chiri Sherpa (a Nepali mountain guide who summited Mount Everest ten times) who perished on an Everest expedition. We are now in the vicinity of Everest, but the great mountain remains elusive. Mt Nuptse towers to the right as the trail crosses the Khumbu Glacier. As we pass along a murmuring stream leaving the Khumbu Glacier behind, we now begin to feel a little out of breath due to high altitude. After crossing the Thukla pass will reach Lobuche in another 1.5hrs

The trail to Gorak Shep goes through the moraine of the Khumbu Glacier. Ahead on the trail we see the crest of the north ridge of Everest along with Mt. Pumori, Mt. Lingtern, Mt. Khumbutse, Mt. Nuptse, etc. Climbing steeply up to the top through the torrent of Changri Glacier, we catch our first glimpse of Kala Patthar, Mt. Pumori. As we reach Gorak Shep, we will find snow-capped mountains looming all around us, including the top of the world – Mt. Everest. After a brief lunch and rest, we take the trail to Everest Base Camp through the once-vast Gorak Shep Lake.Upon reaching the Everest Base Camp we appreciate the Everest climbers who brave the difficult and dangerous route through the Khumbu icefall. Mountaineer’s tents stand out in bright colours against the monotony of grey surroundings (especially in the Spring). Nuptse, Khumbuste, and Pumori are the mountains we can view from the base camp. We will head back to Gorakshep for the night

We start early in the morning to catch the beautiful views from Kala Patthar. However, we need to prepare for an early morning departure, amid predawn darkness and cold temperature (-10 to -14 C).

Further, there is always the potential for chilly winds which are quite common. Familiar peaks such as Lingtren, Khumbutse, and Changtse tower to the east even as Everest begins to reveal itself. During the ascent to Kala Patthar, we can pause to catch a breath at several outstanding viewpoints from where we can snap great pictures. After several hours of ascent, we reach Kala Patthar. From Kala Patthar, we scramble up to the top of a rocky outcrop marked by cairns and prayer flags. Mind-blowing Himalayan panorama unfolds before our eyes as they wander

Return to Gorak Shep and after breakfast trek back to Periche

Just after the start of our trek, we cross Khumbu Khola (stream). Following the main Everest trail down the beautifully scenic valley, we pass through the villages of Orsho, and Shomare and reach Pangboche at the base of Ama Dablam. We cross the bridge over Imja Khola and pass through the Deboche village to reach Tengboche  From Tengboche we will reach it another 3hrs of steep ascent and descent to Kyangjuma

We start our day form Kyangjuma/Thyangboche. The trail goes along the Dudh Kosi river.. Overnight stay at a lodge
