 Close Encounter with Mt. Everest

Country: Nepal

Description

A Famous Trek through Sherpa country to Mt. Everest Base Camp. Our 15-day trek offers trekkers 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 Thyangboche Monastery. After visiting Chukung Ri we trek to Lobuche (4,940m/16,200ft) for a day hike to Kala Pathar Everest view point (5,550m/18,200ft) for a close encounter with 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.
Moderate to strenuous trekking from 2,805m/9,200ft to 4,940m/16,200ft with optional day hikes up to 5550m/18,200ft. Accommodation in comfortable lodges run by Sherpa families.
