Bespoke Everest Base Camp Trek

Bespoke Everest Base Camp Trek

Everest exerts a pull like no other mountain and trekking to the base of Everest through the majesty of the high Himalaya delivers physical and mental reward like no other trek on Earth. The Everest Base Camp Trek through the mountains of Nepal delivers adventure on so many levels. The mountain scenery is simply spectacular, the complete cultural immersion in the Sherpa culture is fascinating and the physical challenge a reward in itself.

Your adventure begins in the vibrant city of Kathmandu where you will enjoy a full day sightseeing tour. The Everest Base Trek starts the following day with a short flight to Lukla and your first day’s trek to Phakding. Your journey then continues ever upwards via Namche Bazaar, Tengboche and Dingboche and Ghorak Shep to Everest Base Camp after nine days of trekking through simply awe inspiring scenery in the footsteps of the world’s great mountaineers.

The highlight of your trek will surely be the visit to Everest base Camp and the dawn view of Everest from the summit of Kala Pattar. The descent from Everest Base Camp is considerably quicker and after 13 days of trekking you will be looking forward to the short hop back to Kathmandu and the relative luxury that it offers.

Is it for me?: Independent treks are perfect if you want to choose your own start date, customise your itinerary, trek on your own or with a small group of firends and want that extra level of service. The trek to Everest Base camp is challenging and the walking strenuous because of the high altitude so a good level of fitness and previous experience of multi day trekking (and preferably at altitude above 3000m) is recommended.
So if you relish a challenge, are physically fit, are happy to forgo a few of life’s luxuries and want the experience of a lifetime then our Everest base Camp Trek is for you.
