Overview

Many of you may have a question 'Can Everest Base Camp Trek be luxury?
Or ‘are there any comfortable hotels up in the Himalayas?’ The answer is 'Yes'. We have offered the best quality of mountain accommodation to guarantee luxury throughout the trip.

Namaste Nepal Trekking & research Hub has created this Luxury Everest Base Camp Trek to meet and to overshoot your satisfaction in luxury, quality, and memorable experiences. The lodging choices along the route are based on the real experience of our founder and trek leader Rajan, to entail the best the Everest reason has to offer. This is the opportunity to accomplish the highest standard accommodations with the local flavor of Sherpa people. This Luxury Everest Base Camp Trek comprises of 3 nights stay in a 5-star hotel in Kathmandu and 11 nights stay in the best lodge along the trek. Your hard days of trekking will be perfectly complemented by a comfortable and memorable stay.

 Nowhere in the world is more stunning than in the Everest region. It is where four of the world's tallest peaks Mt. Mt. Everest(8,848.86m / 29,031) Mt. Lhotse(8,516m / 27,940 ft), Mt. Makalu(8,463m / 27,766 ft), and Cho Oyu(8,188m / 26,864 ft) rise above everything else, there are many other mountains too making this reason so unique and beautiful. Trekking on the grandest path of the Himalayas by staying on the 5-star accommodations will make this trek so special. Trek through Everest reason outstanding mountain views, the world highest mountain landscapes, and the opportunities to go sightseeing around Sagarmatha/Everest national park, a world heritage site.  The trek further offers to get a glimpse into the life of world-famous climbers (the Sherpas) and fill the luxurious hospitality providing by them in the Himalayas. It is an opportunity to embark on an epic journey that Sir Edmund Hillary and Sir Tenzing Norgay Sherpa set off in 1953.

Your trip begins with a sightseeing tour of Kathmandu valley. Visiting the world heritage sights of Kathmandu is something the best of Kathmandu has to offer to the trekkers. Then the luxury journey to Everest Base Camp beings with the flight from Kathmandu to the hair-raising Lukla airport perched at Imposing 2,860m / 9,383 ft. The small airstrip frequently makes lists of the world’s most dangerous airports.  But you likely are safer making the journey by air than by Nepal’s system of mountain roads with sheep drops into steep canyons, no guardrails, and buses that could be described as “aging” at best. Altitude is an important consideration on the Everest Base Camp trek and in Namche Bazar (3,441 m / 11,290 ft), the Sherpa village and gateway to the Khumbu region; we will stay another night for rest and acclimatization.

From Namche, the trek heads upward through colorful Sherpa villages along the Dudh Kosi River. Terraced Barley, potatoes fields, and rhododendron forests up to Dingboche eventually turn into hardened landscapes of rock and ice. On the approach to Everest Base Camp is the final outpost of Gorak Shep; there are no teahouses at Everest Base Camp so we will stay at Gorakshep and trek up to Everest base camp. The scramble to Kala Patthar (5,545m / 18,192 ft) offers a panorama of Everest, Lhotse, and Nuptse that bests the views from the base camp itself.

The main Everest Base Camp trail is an up-and-back route. Trekking back to Lukla from Everest base camp is all the way down! It seems short and easy which normally can be done in about 3 or 4 days. If you have limited time and or don’t like to trek back the same way you can choose NNTR's Everest Base Camp Trek, 1 Way By Helicopter. It will also be another Lifetime experience. But if you wish to take a more challenging “stay off the beaten path” then NNTR- Everest Base Camp Trek Via Gokyo Lake 18 days would be ideal. If you are seeking real adventure for the more challenging route that crosses the most famous mountain passes in the world, you definitely need to consider NNTR- Everest 3 High Passes Trek- 20 daysThis whole trip will always stay at the bottom of your heart and you will always cheer this memorize and want to make more of them, happy trekking.

Best Time for Everest Base Camp Trek


For the Everest Base Camp Trek, Spring (March, April, May) and Autumn (September, October, November) are the best months for High altitude treks in Nepal. The air, freshly washed by the monsoon rain, is crystal clear, stunning mountain scenery, and the weather is still comfortably warm. Although many trekking trips into the lower altitude can be taken during winter and monsoon too, but the cold can be bitter and dangerous at the high altitude, trekking trails above 4000 meters are usually blocked by the heavy snowfall. And the trails can be slippery due to the monsoon rain, Nepal’s famous Juka (leeches) are an unpleasant feature of the wet season, but with care, trekking can still be possible and there are certainly fewer trekkers on the trail.

If you're up for a small day hike, you can head to an old Buddhist hermitage, known as Nangar Dzong. There's also a peak along the ridgeline called Dolma Ri which you can easily reach on foot.

You'll notice that the landscape becomes more icy and remote, with sparser habitation. 

Another turn brings you to a steep ascent at the foot of the Khumbu Glacier, the highest glacier in the world. Though it's one of the most photographed sights along the route, nothing can prepare you for a face-to-face view. 

As you continue climbing, you'll find many stone cairns along the top of the path.

The route continues gently along the slope of the glacier, eventually reaching the small cluster of houses known as Lobuche.

After the last rocky moraine dunes, a short downhill trek brings us to Gorak Shep, a dry, sandy lakebed that sports an ominous moniker (the name means "Graveyard of Crows.") It's simple.

But you're not stopping yet. Continue on, climbing along the Khumbu Glacier at a slow but steady pace in your bid to reach Everest Base Camp. Finally, after a long day at high altitudes, the payoff arrives. Stop to take photos and relax in the world-famous threshold for all summit expeditions.
