Trip Overview
- Journey to the base camp of the world’s highest mountain and Kalapathar
- Tread the less trodden route to Everest base camp
- Lively villages of legendary Sherpas
- 17 days of pure adventure with a full support crew
Everest Base Camp Trek is the most popular trek in the whole 2,400km stretch of the Himalayas in Nepal offering spectacular sceneries, real Himalayan experiences along with the extraordinary culture of the Sherpa community, all the while trekking the foothills of Mt. Everest.
Experience the grandeur of Mount Everest [8,848m/29,029ft] from up close along with the views of many other snow-capped mountains on our all-inclusive Everest Base Camp Trek. The journey to Everest Base Camp got its limelight when Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay Sherpa climbed Everest for the first time in 1953 and ever since this has been the preferred choice for beginner climbers.
The trail goes over [5,000m/16,400ft] for the last few days before reaching Everest Base Camp but the trek isn’t as strenuous as imagined and does not require prior trekking experience while promising a fulfilling journey. Adding to the fun-filled Everest base camp trekking tour, the panoramic views of the Himalayas, monasteries, culture, and the mountain flight to Lukla are a few of the highlights of this trip.
Better Itinerary
Our Everest base camp trek itinerary has been devised carefully keeping more acclimatization, visiting less trodden routes and exploring hidden valleys. Instead of following the standard route from Namche to Dingboche, we detour from Namche Bazar for 3 days and explore the side villages such as Khumjung and Phortse. This side tour also minimises the rapid ascent from Namche Bazar [3450m/11319ft] to Dingboche [4412m/14475ft] and provides a better-acclimatized walk.
Your journey to Everest base camp gets into gear at the ancient valley of Kathmandu. After a night at Kathmandu, we embark on a fantastic mountain flight to Lukla airport built with the help of the famous mountaineer we all know as the late Sir Edmund Hillary, for whose namesake this famous trail of the Everest Base Camp was born. On touchdown at Lukla airport, we meet our senior guide and the other crew members, sort out our equipment and sooner than later, we hit these famous trails to the foothills of the king of all peaks – Mt. Everest.
We begin our hike slow & easy by the banks of the clean waters of the Dudh Kosi River, into the soul of Sherpa country onto the thespian high alpine scenery beyond the horizons. We get off the primary trails sometimes and stroll into friendly villages, including the hustling bazaar of Namche. The village towns of Khumbu, Namche Bazaar and Dingboche are ideal spots to get well acclimatized; before we make a beeline on routes used by famous mountaineers to reach Everest Base Camp. Apart from visiting Khumjung and Phortse, we will spend 2 nights at Namche Bazar [3,450m/11,319ft] and another 2 nights at Dingboche [4,412m/14,475ft] for proper acclimatization and allow our body to adapt to the high altitude.
This trip is not only about Everest Base Camp; we also get the chance to climb Kala Pattar at (5545m) for fantastic views of Mount Everest. Highland Expeditions is proud to offer what we are really sure is the best trek available to Base Camp…in the sublime Khumbu region of Nepal.

Itinerary Disclaimer: Your safety is of imperative concern while traveling with Highland Expeditions. Please take care to note that your guide/leader has the authority to amend or cancel any part of the itinerary if it is deemed necessary due to your safety concerns. Every effort will be made to keep to the above itinerary; however, since this adventure entails traveling in remote mountainous regions, we cannot guarantee that we will not deviate from it. Weather, the health condition of a group member, unexpected natural disasters, etc., can all contribute to changes in the itinerary. The trek guide/leader will try to ensure that the trip runs according to plan, but please be prepared to be flexible if required.
Lukla Flight: Plane flights in Nepal, especially those to Lukla, are generally dependent on weather conditions. These flights operate under Visual Flight Rules (VFR), which require clear weather. If the weather is poor, all flights for the day will be canceled. In the event of a flight cancellation, we will try to arrange a helicopter flight, as helicopters can sometimes operate in conditions where planes cannot. However, you will be responsible for the additional costs, which can range from $300 to $500 or more, depending on factors such as the number of people sharing the flight, availability, and demand. This extra amount is after crediting your plane fare. If delays continue for several days and neither a helicopter nor a plane flight is an option, we will make a collective decision on how to proceed. This is particularly important if delays occur before the trek, as the original itinerary may no longer be feasible. Your guide will assist you throughout this process and we expect your understanding and cooperation. Therefore, it is important to include contingency days in Kathmandu after the trek to account for potential delays. If there are no cancellations and flights operate as scheduled, you can use the extra days for sightseeing in and around the Kathmandu Valley
