Additional Information

Why is Everest View Trek Such a Popular Trek?

Everest Trek is a popular trekking route in the Solu-Khumbu region of Nepal that provides breathtaking views of the Himalayan mountains, including Mount Everest. The trek takes you through traditional Sherpa villages, lush forests, and high-altitude valleys, immersing you in the local culture and experiencing the region’s stunning natural beauty.

Where to Start the Everest  View Trek? 

The trek starts and ends in Lukla, a town located at an altitude of 2,840 meters, and can be completed in 7 to 10 days. The hike reaches its highest point at Tengboche Monastery, which is at an altitude of 3,870 meters and offers panoramic views of the surrounding mountains, including the mighty Mount Everest.

In addition to the stunning mountain views, the Everest View Trek also offers opportunities to learn about the local Sherpa culture and religion and visit the famous Tengboche Monastery, one of the largest and most important monasteries in the Solu-Khumbu region.

How challenging is the Everest View Trek?

The trek is suitable for people of all ages and fitness levels and can be completed throughout the year, although the best time to go is from September to November and from March to May.

Overall, the Everest View Trek is an excellent option for those looking for a short and relatively easy trek that offers spectacular views of the Himalayan mountains and a chance to experience the local culture and way of life in the Solu-Khumbu region.

Why Do We Need Acclimatization Day at Namche Bazaar?

Namche Bazar, a gateway to the Everest Region on a Khumbu valley, provides views of Kongde Ri and Thamserku. After crossing the Dudh Kosi River, you’ll reach the beautiful village of Namche Bazaar.

With numerous hotels, museums, stupas, historical monasteries, bakeries, shopping centers, modern communication facilities, and well-stocked stories, Namche Bazar is a beautiful destination for trekkers and a place for proper acclimatization day hikes.

As you are trekking at a higher altitude, your body needs to adjust to the new environment, climate, and lack of oxygen. So, for your body’s well-being and to avoid altitude sickness, you must acclimate to the Namche Bazaar. If you don’t acclimate in Namche Bazar, you’ll have difficulty at high altitudes.

On your acclimatization day, you can trek to Syangboche, the place from where 360 stunning views of mountains can be seen, including Mt Everest, Mt. Lhotse, Nuptse, Ama Dablam, Thamserku, Kongde RI, Tabuche peak (unclimbed mountain) and many other mountains.
