Description of Everest Base Camp Trek
The
Everest Base Camp trek is arguably the most famous
trekking route in the world and this is a once in a
lifetime opportunity to see some of the most
breathtaking scenery imaginable. Nepal is a
fascinating country and the trek gives an insight
into the lives and culture of the Sherpa people. Our
ascent is steady and well paced to best suit the
acclimatization needed. Sunrise on the snow capped
peaks above the Khumbu Glacier is an unforgettable
sight from the summit of Kala Pattar. This trek is
one for the lover of high places and those wanting
to push themselves to the limit. It is a tough
challenge and not to be taken lightly with generally
well graded paths but some tougher sections along
the Khumbu glacier.
From Kathmandu we fly to Lukla, and the adventure
begins as we land at its tiny airstrip. We spend
several days trekking through the homelands of the
Sherpa people, among their villages and Buddhist
monasteries, with distant views of Everest and
neighboring Ama Dablam, considered by many to be
among the most beautiful mountains in Nepal. A day
is spent at Namche Bazaar, the bustling market town
in the heart of Sherpa country, and at Pheriche a
cluster of houses set among the high summer grazing
pastures of the region. These rest days allow time
to explore further and to acclimatize, an important
factor in your enjoyment of the trek. Those who have
fully acclimatized may trek to the Everest Base Camp
but without doubt, the highlight for most will be
the awe-inspiring views which unfold from the summit
of Kala Pattar - the chaotic ice sculptures of the
Khumbu Glacier, Nuptse and the south-west face of
Everest itself. Not forgetting, of course, the
personal sense of achievement that many experience
at the end of their trek, when it is all over and we
fly back to Kathmandu. |
