Welcome to Kathmandu, the capital city of the Himalayan kingdom of Nepal.You will be met on airport and transferred to your hotel. After the arrival, the group will be formally introduced to Guide for the activities over the next few days. One should pay attention in particular to the safety aspects of the briefing. Any questions or doubts should be asked and clarified at this time. We check your insurance details and other requirement for your trekking.

Your trekking guide will come to your hotel and, after breakfast, we take a spectacular 40 minute flight from Kathmandu to Lukla, perched at 2,860m in the Khumbu Valley, with unforgettable views of the terraced landscape and river valleys below, as well as close-ups of some of the world’s highest mountains. We then take a short hike to Phakding passing mani walls (rocks with carved Buddhist prayer inscriptions), small villages and terraced hillsides. (40 minutes flight and 3 hours trekking).

The trek meanders up the Dudh Kosi (river) valley before we begin a steep uphill hike from where we’ll get our first view of Thamserku (6,623m), a peak rising to the east of Namche Bazaar. From the pretty village of Benkar the trek heads back to cross the Dudh Kosi before rising through magnificent forests of rhododendron, magnolia and fir interspersed with villages. The trek descends dramatically to recross the Dudh Kosi and from the confluence of the Dudh and Bhote Kosi we begin a 2 hour uphill hike through dense pine forests to Namche Bazaar, a busy attractive little trading town with shops, tea-houses, e-mail cafes etc. (6 hour trek).

Rest at Namche Bazar for acclimatization and excursion around the places. Namche is tucked away between two ridges amidst the giant peaks of the Khumbu and has an abundance of lodges, teashops and souvenir shops as well as a magnificent outlook. It is an ideal place to spend a rest day for acclimatization to the high altitude before heading off towards Tyangboche. For the acclimatization you walk upto Khunde Hospital which was set-up by Sir Edmund Hillary, or a one hour walk up to the Syangboche (3800m.) where Everest View Hotel is situated above Namche for the outstanding view of Everest, Nuptse, Lhotse,Ama Dablam, Thamserku and Kusum Kangaru. There are also good views from the National Park Centre and Museum just above the town.

We leave Namche Bazar and make a short uphill trek, before hiking downhill into the forest, with the river bed becoming closer and wider. We hike to the village of Phorte and then the small town of Samde halfway up a slope leading to a bridge over the Bhote Koshi (3,650 m). We cross the bridge and trek uphill for about 30 minutes to Thame. (4/5 hour trek).

The trek from Thame to Marlung & Londen  is more mountainous and there is less vegetation. We enjoy the peace and solitude of this little trekked valley, enjoying the fab views. We hike past Tarngga village enjoying superb vistas of Kongde Ri (chain of mountains) as we look back down the trek. A further 45 minutes hiking on a gradually rising slope brings us to Marulung & continue  to Lungden, our last stop before the first pass, Renjo La. (3 hour trek).

We trek to Renjo La (pass), getting outstanding views of Everest, Lhotse, Cholatse and Taboche. From Renjo La we can see Gokyo Tsho, the 3rd of the sacred lakes, and Gokyo village beneath the grey smudge of Ngozumpa Glacier. We hike down to Gokyo. (7 hour trek)

This is a day to explore the area. Wake up early morning for the must-do hike up Gokyo Ri (5,360m) for great views including Everest and Makalu, (4 hours return). In the afternoon trek up to the 4th and 5th lakes, Thonak Tsho and Ngozumpa Tsho, and back (allow 5 hours there and back and take a guide). In addition between Thonak and Ngozumpa Tshos there are 3 fingers of rock, the ‘Nameless Towers’, the lowest of which (5,360m) is a fun scramble to the summit then back to Gokyo & have a lunch in gokyo. After Lunch We trek out of Gokyo and hike down past Taboche Tsho and Longponga Tsho, the first 2 of the lakes, and turn east over the glacier and take the short hike to Dragnag. The hike up Gokyo Ri could be done on this morning. (3 hour trek).

We need to start trekking early, with a packed lunch, to avoid the clouds. The trek climbs the valley before crossing boulders to the scree slopes below the pass. The pass itself is always icy and there may be quite deep snow. The hike down is tricky and you should stick close to your guides for this. During the hike down you will have a permanent view of Ama Dablam, 6,856m, framed in the end of the valley? (This is the hardest day of the trek). (8 hour trek).

We hike down southeast and turn to the north. Pheriche and Dhugla should be visible and we, of course, have great views of the mountains surrounding us. We now rejoin the main trekking route to Kala Pattar, Gorak Shep and EBC. (5 hour trek).

Trekking up the Khumbu Valley we pass Gorak Shep and after hiking along the glacier we reach the only let down of the trek, the rather squalid Everest Base Camp with its distinct lack of views. After a deserved cup of tea we trek back to Gorak Shep. (7.5 hour trek).

We wake up early and hike up Kala Pattar for the sunrise views of Mts Everest, Nuptse, Lhotse, Pumori and Khumbutse and the Khumbu Glacier beneath. We trek back to Loboche. (7 hour trek).

Today is your rest day because you are getting tiered with two high pass & EBC/Kalapathar hike so enjoy your day with fully rest cause next day early m

From Lobuche we trek across the Khumbu Glacier and hike up to Kongma La, enjoying  views of the wide basin dotted with frozen lakes and the marvelous vistas of Cholatse, Pokalde, Nuptse, Lhotse, Makalu and Ama Dablam. While trekking down into the Niyang Khola valley, we can see Amphu Lapcha Pass and Island Peak. We hike on to Chukkung. (7.5 hour trek).

Leave Chhukung  and the Chukking valley & mountains as a backdrop and descend to a gradual down flat  area to emerge in a pleasant level area. Pass a long Mani-stone wall to enter the village of Dingboche.it is a one of another biggest village from Khumbu region.

Leaving behind the views of the High Himalaya we trek down to Tengboche with its gompa (monastery), a World Heritage Site, which may be visited for self-purification (go on you need it)  then continue walk to Namche Bazaar. (5 hour trek).

We trek downhill through the pine forest, leaving behind Everest, crossing several bridges on the Dudh Kosi to greener vegetation and cultivation among the Sherpa villages. And that’s almost it for this year. (6 hours).

A hair-raising take-off down the runway commences the return flight to Kathmandu. Don’t worry though, it’s not true that the planes take off and glide before starting the engines!

We hope you’ve had a great trek, some once in a lifetime experiences, tightened your belt a few notches, have lots of fond memories and, of course, we look forward to trekking again with you on your return to Nepal.

In the evening we will drive you for farewell dinner in Nepali traditional restaurant with cultural dance.

All too soon it’s time to bid Nepal farewell and one realizes that we can never be intimate, only acquainted with this amazing adventure Himalaya.
