Because Everest is Everest, it stands in a league of its own, unmatched by any other Trek in the world.Well, if simply stating the truth didn't convince you, then perhaps the thought of standing at the foot of Everest, following the footsteps of legendary mountaineers who have attempted to conquer the peak, will change your mind.
Everest Base Camp Trek Overview:
Everest trek offers you amazing views of mountains along with a peek into the life of the Sherpas. Along the way, you’ll enter the Sagarmatha National Park which is a UNESCO world heritage site, and visit several monasteries. This is the journey that Sir Tenzing Norgay Sherpa and Sir Edmund Hillary initiated in 1953. Everest Base Camp entails the challenge of hiking for about 9 - 11 days in high altitudes depending upon your itinerary. Moreover, you traverse through narrow sloppy paths and steep inclines as you aim for the base camp of Everest. We begin by taking a flight to Lukla from Kathmandu. The flight itself is quite stunning as you can view stunning views from the window. We’ll then land on Lukla which is at a height of 2,840 meters. The hike starts from Lukla. We will reach Kala Patthar (5,545 m) in ten days which is our final destination. The mountains that you can view up close are endless. These include Lhotse, Nuptse, Kwangde, Ama Dablam, Kangtega, and Everest, among others. Additionally, the town of Namche Bazaar is an exceptional sight in itself. It is the gateway to Everest Base Camp and Everest Climbing. This Sherpa settlement is filled with vibrant homes, cafes, lodges, shops, and teahouses. It feels like a magical sight surrounded by mountains. Spring and Autumn seasons are the best time to trek Everest Base Camp. Both seasons give you mild climatic conditions during the walk. The Everest Base Camp trek is inside Sagarmatha National Park, so the trek offers you beautiful landscapes, wildlife, and green forests. Everest region has distinct features in different seasons. Spring is the peak season of the year for trekking in Nepal. Spring season has a clear sky with a warm climate. Sunny days make the weather warm and dry during the day. Being a peak season of the year, it is the best season for traveling. And comparatively easier than any other season. However, the short Everest Base Camp Trek is crowded compared to other seasons. During this season, the days are warmer due to sunlight, but the occasional snowfall might make the night chilly. In the Spring season, Sagarmatha National Park is covered with rhododendrons blossom and other spring flowers. The spring season also offers a high possibility of witnessing high-altitude wildlife such as Snow Leopards, Himalayan Tahr, Musk Deer, Clouded leopards, Red Pandas, and Wild Yak. Furthermore, the spring season offers unblocked panoramic views of high peaks like Mount Everest(8,848 m), Lhotse (8,516 m), Makalu (8,463 m), Cho Oyu (8,188 m), Nuptse (7,861 m), Ama Dablam (6,812 m), Pumori (6,189 m), and Changtse (7,553 m) and many more. Autumn is another best season for a Short Everest Base Camp Trek alongside Spring. As the perfect season, it has neither warm hot days nor cold nights as winter; however, it is a bit more chilly than normal weather conditions. Due to favorable conditions and climate, it is crowded like the spring season. The teashops, cafes, and lodges are filled with tourists. You need the best company, with excellent guides who can manage your accommodations even during peak seasons. Furthermore, the perfect view of Mt. Everest, surrounding high summits, fresh mountain air, deep-blue sky, and friendly locals enhance your experience this season. Winter Season starts from mid-November to February. Everest Base Camp Trek can be challenging in the winter season. Most of the trekking in the Himalayas is challenging during winter. It is mostly recommended for experienced hikers. Days in the winter are mildly cold while nights are extremely cold. Temperature can reach below -10 degrees Celsius. You might expect a snow as well. The trails get filled with heavy snow, so good gears are recommended to navigate the trail during winter. Trekkers with high physical fitness and good gear can trek Everest Base Camp in winter. However, an experienced guide is required for navigating snow-covered trials. This season offers less crowded routes, and snow-capped peaks gleam brighter than ever. Gleaming snow on the canopy trees adds beauty to the trek. The Monsoon season in Nepal starts in June and lasts up to mid-September. Initially, it starts with hot weather followed by rain. Due to heavy rain, most trekkers avoid trekking Everest Base Camp trek in the monsoon season. The route to Everest Base Camp trek is muddy and views are blurred due to mist most of the time. Often it is risky for beginner trekkers due to the possibility of landslides. Constant rain and cloudy skies with hot summer days may make the trip challenging. However, the trails are pristine and isolated with very few trekkers. Monsoon season gives a chance for peace trekking while appreciating the beauty of nature. Landscapes are full of greenery, and you can witness Himalayan monals above the timberline in the open. If you plan the Everest Base Camp trek in the summer season, make more room for your vacation days. Uncertainty of flights to Lukla may alter your planned itinerary. Comparatively, the Mt Everest trek to base camp attracts fewer trekkers during this season than in other seasons. The temperature of the Everest base camp varies vastly during the day and night. The average temperature reaches about 8-12 degrees Celsius during the day. The temperature at night can reach -3 to -20℃. The weather on the Everest Base Camp is always unpredictable. It is surrounded by Lhotse, Mount Everest, Nuptse, and many more. Therefore, it is difficult to predict the best month or season appropriate for ascending the base camp. However, listening to the weather forecast daily can be helpful for the trek. If the weather changes mid-way, we can return and try the next day. So, an extra 1 or 2 days are required during this expedition. Many trekkers may prefer to ascend base camp via Gokyo. Gokyo Lakes are the world’s highest freshwater lake at an altitude of 5375 meters. You can witness the Grandeur of Gokyo Lakes with the view of Cho Oyu, Everest, Lhotse, and Makalu. Gokyo Lakes are oligotrophic lakes in the Sagarmatha National Park which means they are poor in vegetation nutrients but have a higher level of oxygen at the deeper level. We can soar up to Gokyo Ri at an altitude of 5375 meters. Gokyo Ri is famed for the unblemished and breathtaking view of the peak of Everest. After that, we can take the Cho la pass at an altitude of 5420 meters. Finally, the Everest base camp can be conquered after passing through these spectacular places. In this way, Everest Base Camp Trek via Gokyo Lake is put to completion. Have you imagined reaching Everest Base Camp, seeing majestic mountains, and witnessing the magical sunrise from Kala Patthar without the pain of walking a single step? Everest Base Camp luxury trek is the answer. Enjoy breathtaking moments and highlights of the Everest base camp trek. Enjoy the sunrise at the world's highest point and back to Kathmandu on the same day. The Luxury Everest Base Camp Trek saves your days without missing any of the major locations during the trek, as the descending trail will mostly follow the same path we took during the climb. This Luxury Base Camp Trek is also known as the Everest Base Camp Trek with Helicopter return with the option of accommodation at Everest View Hotel. Everest View Hotel is a five-star hotel at the highest altitude. It provides luxury accommodation with a view of majestic Mt.Everest. The luxury trek ends after the views of the golden sunrise on Mt.Everest from the viewpoint of Kala Patthar and returning to Gorekshep. We have breakfast at Gorakshep and fly back to Kathmandu via helicopter, eliminating the remaining days from your short Everest Base Camp Trek itinerary. Namche Bazaar is the popular acclimatizing spot for trekkers in the Khumbu region. It is situated at an altitude of 3,340 meters. It offers several lodgings and accommodation facilities for travelers. You can find internet cafes, German bakeries, Irish pubs and restaurants. Namche has easy access to electricity so you need not to worry about electricity. To acclimatize in Namche Bazaar we will stroll around the Himalayan town. Visiting and walking around helps us to prevent altitude sickness. We will hike to the Syangboche Airport and Everest Hotel. Everest Hotel offers some splendid views of mountains like Everest, Ama Dablam, Lhotse, etc. We will also visit the Sherpa Culture Museum. This is the perfect place to learn about history, culture, and traditions of the Sherpa community. If time permits we can visit Sagarmatha Park Museum to learn about wildlife and vegetation in Sagarmatha National Park. Dingboche is the last Sherpa Village during the Short Everest Base Camp Trek and the best place to rest and acclimatize before attempting heights over 4,500 m. Dingboche is the ultimate sherpa village of the Everest region and one of the most popular trekking destinations, at an altitude of 4,410 m, as it offers mesmerizing views of Himalayan peaks without reaching any further heights. As part of the acclimatization process at Dingboche, we trek to Nangkartshang Peak (5,083 m/16,677 ft), and back to Dingboche. It will take about 6 hours. The Nangkartshang Peak offers enchanting views of Mt. Tawache (6,495 m/ 21,309ft), Ama Dablam, Island Peak, Lhoste, Everest, and Pumori. Furthermore, after days of trekking, you can rest your body at Dingboche, catch up with the latest news, share your experiences with your friends online, or talk with your family over the phone. Dingboche is also the best place for acclimatization as it has a library for book lovers and an internet cafe with a satellite link. It is difficult to reach Dingboche by road. Goods are transported through Yak or Porter. The climate of Dingboche is always cool, rainy in the summer, and dry and cold in the winter because of the high altitude.Best Season for Everest base camp trek

Frequently Asked Question
This trek is moderately challenging for adults, but tagging children on this expedition may escalate the difficulty. However, children can conclude this trek with additional care and attention from the guardians. Also, the parents may need to hire an extra guide to look after their children.
The permits required for the Everest Base Camp Trek are the Khumbu Pasang Lhamu Rural Municipality Entrance Permit and the Sagarmatha National Park Entry Permit.
The Khumbu Pasang Lhamu Rural Municipality Entrance Permit: This permit costs $ 20$ per person and isn't available in Kathmandu. You must get it at Lukla at the start of your trek. Moreover, if you stay more than four weeks, the permit cost increases to 25$ per person.
The Sagarmatha National Park Entry Permit: This is a permit for entering the Sagarmatha National Park, and you can obtain this permit in Kathmandu. As we will pass through the Sagarmatha National Park during our trek, we need the Sagarmatha National Park Entry Permit, which costs 30$ per person.
The foremost thing to do before inaugurating the trek is to do a regular medical check-up. However, if you get altitude sickness or any other sickness along the way, then we will consult the local doctors first and review if you can continue the journey. If you are fit enough to continue, we will resume the trip, and if there are no improvements in your health, we will send you back. In those cases, we will refund after calculating all the expenditures up to sick days on mutual consent.
The short Everest Base Camp Trek takes ten days, which includes proper acclimatization during the high altitudes. However, if you are a beginner, we suggest you acclimatize at Namche Bazaar and Dingboche, and the "rest days" are not wasted as you get to make some side trips to Everest Hotel and Nangkartshang Peak.
Moreover, you can also trek at your own pace, and even if you decide to make a side trip, we are flexible and cater to your every request, but additional days in your itinerary are required. So, to complete the 80-mile (130km) roundtrip that starts from Lukla, a short trek of 10 days, 12 days of treks for beginners, and a fair number of days according to your needs and side trip locations for personalized treks is the required duration.
The best time of year for Nepal Everest Trekking depends on the objective of your trek. The best weather for an average trekking experience is spring (March-May) or fall/autumn (October-November). Still, an isolated and challenging trek can only be experienced in Monsoon(June to mid-August), while adventurous trekkers and expedition groups opt to choose Winter (November to January) to witness the crystal clear snow-capped peaks.
Another straightforward way to get to the Mt.Everest Base Camp is the EBC helicopter tour, which can be taken during any season, excluding the monsoon rains, as helicopters rarely fly during this season. You can choose the weather that fits you with your detailed explanation above.
While there are no minimum or maximum age restrictions for the EBC trek, we suggest that the children need to be of a minimum of 10 years, and if trekking with older people, a maximum of 70 years of age. Moreover, while you trek with children or older adults, we suggest the itinerary for 12 days with two days for acclimatization.
While most of the region requires a mandatory guide during trekking in Nepal, the authorities in the Everest region didn't agree with this rule so you can go solo trekking to the Everest Base Camp. While solo trekking is a preference, we don't recommend you trek this trail as a solo traveler, as it will be challenging to navigate the terrain during snowfall. Moreover, the hotels and lodges will be packed during peak seasons, so you need assistance from a guide to secure accommodation during the trek.
Follow proper acclimatization routines to avoid altitude sickness in the Everest region. While guides are knowledgeable about the routes and resting points, even if you fall sick during the trek, we can immediately evacuate you or take you to the nearest hospital as per your condition. Moreover, you must follow a guide on paths such as Dingboche to Lobuche, as trekking alone can be challenging.
Yes, you can connect the Everest Base Camp trek to Everest Three Passes Trek and the Gokyo Lake Trek.
The money to take on the Everest Base Camp Trek depends on your lifestyle, what you want to eat, where you want to stay, and so on. We will try to give you some ranges:
First of all, we can use ATMs until Namche, and there are no more ATMs after Namche, so you need to take your money from Namche so that you don't get in trouble later. If you have already booked a package with a travel agency, most of the expenses are covered; the only costs you will need are a hot bath, wifi, charging, souvenirs, hard drinks(Not recommended), and extra enjoyment. You can take around 30,000 NPR, which will be enough if you use it wisely. Moreover, if you have a lavish spending habit, we recommend you take 50,000 NPR.
However, if you are not on packages with any company, we suggest you carry at least 1,00,000 NPR, excluding the guide & porter fees and flight from Kathmandu to Lukla and Lukla to Kathmandu. So just for your food, accommodations, souvenirs, hot baths, chargings, wifi, and entertainment activities during the trek.
While the season you trek in plays a significant role in trekking challenges and difficulty, Everest Base Camp Trek is safe. As it is a popular trekking route, the trails are well-maintained, so we can easily find accommodations and facilities during this trek.
Additionally, most trekkers are scared of altitude sickness, but with the perfect itinerary and acclimatization points, we can reduce the chance altitude sickness the chance of altitude sickness.
To prepare even more safety for beginners, we have an itinerary for acclimatization in Namche Bazaar and Dingboche, further reducing the chances of altitude sickness.

Everest Base Camp Trek Company Reviews
EBC: An amazing experience, Personnel touch and Managed Safely
Wow! Such a great trip to EBC with my daughter, Piper and Jeevan from North Nepal Trek. A bucket list trip for sure. Thanks to the all team for all our questions beforehand, briefing us before departure and a celebration on our return to Kathmandu.
Jeewan safely guided Piper and I from Lukla to EBC through all the mountains, landscapes, local villages, food, customs on the route. Jeewan was very informative with a couple of side trips to local monasteries. He was great to chat to about our experience and was genuinely interested in ensuring we met our goal and enjoyed ourselves.
Jeewan made the trip manageable by giving sound information about how to look after ourselves, how much water to drink, what types of food would help and what pace we should walk at.
The tea house culture was fantastic, meeting all the other trekkers and playing Dumblo (card game) with the guides. Great fun!
Thanks to everyone at North Nepal Trek !!
