Overview

Everest Base Camp Trek is a classic trekking adventure in the foothills of the world’s highest mountain, Mount Everest. Trudging along the rugged trails of the Himalayas, decorated with mountains and landscapes, this trek is undoubtedly one of the best walks on earth.

Regarded as the most popular trek in Nepal, Everest Base Camp Trek extends for 15 days.  Along the way, you’ll get to marvel at some of the world’s highest massifs, including Mt. Everest, Lhotse, Ama Dablam, Thamserku, Cho Oyu, Pumori, Nuptse, and Makalu. Not only that, but this trek combines the glorious glimpses of the Himalayas with the iconic culture of the Sherpas. You’ll also get to witness their rustic lifestyle and a taste of their famed hospitality.

The journey to Everest Base Camp begins with one of the most unforgettable flights from Kathmandu to the airstrip of Lukla. You’ll walk through several Sherpa settlements, including Namche, Tengboche, Dingboche, and Gorak Shep, before reaching the base of the world’s highest mountain. The entire trail of the EBC Trek is adorned with breathtaking sceneries, ancient monasteries, prosperous villages, chortens, prayer flags, and mani walls.

In the villages of the Everest region, you will encounter the day-to-day lifestyle of the Sherpa tribes and their practices of Tibetan Buddhism. The trek also combines the spiritual experience as you will be visiting the ancient monasteries of Khumjung and Tengboche.

Moreover, this trek also takes you to the world’s most famous viewpoint, Kala Patthar. At an elevation of 5,643 meters, Kala Patthar marks as the highest landmark of the trek. From the summit, you get to relish a 360-degree panorama of the mountains, including Mt. Everest, Pumori, Lingtren, Nuptse, and Changtse. Also, you will get the opportunity to witness the most epic sunrise of your lifetime emerging over the high Himalayas.

Is Everest Base Camp Trek Right For You?

  • Everest Base Camp Trek is not a luxurious holiday package. It demands both physical as well as mental preparedness. Therefore, if you have prior hiking experience in the mountains or hilly terrains, you’ll be able to complete this trek.
  • In the EBC Trek, you will have to walk for about five to six hours every single day. So, if you think you’ll be able to take on the challenge for almost two weeks, you’ll be able to pull this through. It is advisable to go for small hikes and engage in cardio-related activities to train for the trek.
  • Each day, you’ll be gaining about 300 to 700 meters elevation in this trek. Make sure your body and mind can cope with the increasing altitude. If you do not have prior trekking experience, it is recommended to go on a lower altitude trek before this adventure.
  • During the trek, you will be spending your nights at the local tea houses that offer basic facilities only. The rooms are not comfortable and luxurious, like the hotels around the city area. However, they are relatively clean, cozy, and comfortable.
  • The weather in the Himalayas can be unpredictable, especially in the upper reaches of the trek. In worse scenarios, you might have to go through cold weather and snowy conditions on the higher altitudes. Make sure you can cope with such challenges. Additionally, we recommend you pack layers and weather protection, even if you’re trekking in the summer season.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

When is the best time to go trekking in Everest Base Camp?

Like any other trekking destination of Nepal, the most favorable time to trek to Everest Base Camp is during spring and autumn. It is because, during these seasons, the sky tends to stay consistent and clear, offering a spectacular view of the mountains. Moreover, the weather also remains moderate during this time of the year, which is ideal for long-day trekking.

What is the difficulty level of the Everest Base Camp Trek?

Everest Base Camp Trek (EBC Trek) is considered a strenuous trek. However, there are no technical routes or climbs on this trek. The route to the base camp is not paved and is likely to get rough, rocky, and gravel-strewn most of the time.
Additionally, the EBC Trek is two-week-long, where you will have to walk for about 5 to 6 hours every day on average. Therefore, those who have a weak ankle needs to be careful in every step.
Also, depending upon the season, the trail might be covered in ice and snow, which is going to be much more challenging than a regular trail. But, if you’re already an avid trekker, this should not be much of a challenge for you. Even for a first-timer, this trek is achievable if you make proper preparation prior to departure.

How's the drinking water on the trek? Is it safe to drink?

The tea houses on the trail provide safe drinking water. But, we do not recommend you to drink the water from local streams or natural sources. Make sure to carry a water bottle and ask your guide to fill the water in the teahouse. Also, it is better to carry water purifiers and tablets to treat the water for safety.

Are we in the threat of Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS) while trekking to Everest Base Camp?

Frankly speaking, the risk of acute mountain sickness differs from person to person. Since you’ll be walking up to 5,643m at Kala Patthar, the risk factor will be present. However, our packages for Everest Base Camp are thoughtfully designed with proper acclimatization days to reduce the chances of altitude sickness.
In addition to that, all our guides are certified first-aid responders who will effectively monitor you and help you, if any symptoms are seen.
It is recommended to trek at a slow and steady pace, instead of rushing to reach your destination. Most importantly, stay hydrated and drink as many fluids as possible to reduce the risk of AMS.

What is the accommodation like in the Everest Base Camp Trek?

Everest Base Camp Trek is a classic teahouse trek. Like most trekking destinations in the Khumbu region, most teahouses in Everest Base Camp Trek are relatively well-managed and comfortable. To be honest, there is a wide range of options when it comes to accommodation in the Everest region — from relatively cheaper lodges with basic amenities to deluxe quality hotels.
You will be accommodated in deluxe quality teahouses in every overnight stop. Although they are not likely to be as luxurious as the star hotels in the city areas, they will provide all the necessary amenities such as cozy rooms, delicious food, WiFi, charging facilities, and hot shower facilities.

What is the food like on the Everest Base Camp Trek?

The teahouses of Everest Base Camp serve both Nepali as well as western cuisines. Dal Bhat is by far the most preferred meal while trekking in the Himalayas. However, we serve a different menu each day as per your preference.
Here’s the list of foods on the menu of Everest Base Camp Trek:
Breakfast: Black tea, milk tea, coffee, porridge, toast with spreads, grain cereal, and eggs (served fried, omelet or boiled), boiled water
Lunch: Chapatis, juice, canned tuna, and meats, fresh fruits, potatoes, cheese and gherkins, vegetables, Dal Bhat, momo, chowmein, pizza, boiled water
Dinner: Dal Bhat, fried rice, soup, spaghetti, steamed vegetables, pizza, fresh apples, salad, tea

Can I have a shower on the trek?
