After a good night’s rest and wholesome breakfast, we drive to the domestic airport for a scenic flight to Lukla. At Lukla, you will be meeting the local porters with whom you will start trekking adventures all along the Dudh Koshi River. Following the trail, we reach Cheplung (2,700 m) and then a place called Ghat (2,530 m). From here, an hour’s walk reaches the small settlement at Phakding. Overnight in a guest house at Phakding.

After an early morning breakfast, we begin our walk through a pine forest and move all along the trail north that takes us to the Benkar valley. We then cross the Dudh Koshi River and pass through Chumoa and Monjo villages, which serve as the entrance to the Everest National Park. We then cross a suspension bridge before Jorsale village and walk alongside the Dudh Koshi River. Beyond this, a steep climb awaits us before we reach Namche Bazaar. This is by far one of the largest Sherpa-inhabited towns in the Everest region. Overnight in Namche Bazaar.

Today is meant for laid-back exploration and rest at Namche Bazaar. This is one of the most important towns in the Everest or Khumbu regions. This town is a mini-world in itself. It has government offices, ATMs, internet cafes, shops, restaurants, and a vibrant market.
You have the choice of spending your time here or hiking up to the Sagarmatha National Park to get the first glimpse of the sunrise. The panoramic views of the Himalayas, including Mt. Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, Ama Dablam, Thamserku, Kongde, and so on, are rewarding.
If you are looking for more than a hike, Khumjung Village is an ideal option to get a closer look at Sherpa culture and tradition than Namche. We will also visit the Hillary School and a monastery that comprises a skull known to be that of a yeti and an abominable snowman. Overnight in Namche Bazaar.

From Namche, we start trekking and reach Phunki, which is an easy and pleasant walk. We then make an ideal ascent for reaching as far as Tengboche village. This village is known for its world-class Tengboche Monastery, the largest monastery in the Everest region. The monastery is lapped against the backdrop of Mt. Ama Dablam and offers the best view of the Himalayas, including Mt. Everest, Nuptse, Lhotse, and Thamserku. Overnight in Tengboche

Today we begin our day with a lovely morning at Tengboche. After having our breakfast and knowing the designated time for the blessing, we go towards the Tengboche monastery and attend some meditation, and soon after that, we receive the blessing from the monk and spend our day with the locals.

Today is our second day of the festival, and today we celebrate with the locals. We can observe the locals and the monks doing various rituals, people wearing various costumes and masks waiting for the locals and the monks to do the rituals and music, and people dancing all along while wearing the masks.

Today is the last day at the festival, and today is the last day at Tengboche, where we witness the jinsak. offering to Agni (the god of fire) and to the gods of the mandala to allay all harm in the world. After the destruction of the sand mandala, sand is given as an offering to the serpent gods

The day begins with an ideal descent and also a long walk through the forested route of birch, conifer, and rhododendron trees. As we move on, we will be greeted by the best views of Mt. Everest, Lhotse, and Ama Dablam.

We then walk downhill to Debuche and cross the Imja Khola River to reach as far as Pangboche. Taking the upper Pangboche trail and observing the magnificent Himalayan vistas, we reach Pangboche Monastery.

Taking the route that follows the Imja Valley and Lobuche River, we make a climb toward Dingboche. Dingboche is a small yet scenic village decorated with beautiful barley, potato, and buckwheat fields. Overnight in Dingboche.

The eleventh day of your 18 days at Everest Base Camp is meant for acclimatization and rest. As we have time on our hands, we pay a visit to the Dingboche monastery and hike up to Nangkhartshang Peak. Besides that, the panoramic views of Mt. Everest, Amadablam, Lhotse, Tawache, Nuptse, Kwangde, etc. at a striking distance make it eventful. Stay overnight in the guest house.

After a quick breakfast, we set out on a trail with excellent views written all over it, especially the likes of Taboche and Cholatse, which made it refreshing. We pass through the yak meadows and then over the wooden bridge to Duglha. Next, we make a steep climb for almost an hour up towards the graveled terminal moraine of the Khumbu Glacier. A large group of stones dedicated to the memory of lost climbers and Sherpas during their Everest expedition can be found here. From here, the awe-inspiring views of Khumbutse, Lingtren, and Pumori are more than rewarding. We then walked along the valley and climbed for an hour to reach Lobuche. Overnight in Lobuche.

Be prepared for a long day’s walk as we follow the windblown, rocky path along the arid Khumbu moraine to the last settlement of Gorakshep. An ideal stopover for getting fueled up for reaching the world’s highest base camp is understandable. We follow the trail that leads us on to the Khumbu Glacier, infamously known for its treacherous icefall, which is scary yet acceptable. This is the most challenging part of an Everest ascent. From here, we trek back to Gorakshep. Overnight in Gorakshep.

There is something special on the trekking menu today as we get up early to brace ourselves for a pre-sunrise glimpse without the cloud cover. We climb for 2-3 hours uphill with the goal of reaching Kala Patthar (5,545 m/18,192 ft). This is an excellent vantage point to enjoy the sunrise on the top of the world’s highest peak, Mt. Everest. Taking on a fairly steep trail at a gradual pace, we get a splendid sighting of the tremendous views of the Lingtren, Khumbutse, Mt. Nuptse, Mt. Lhotse, Ama Dablam, Changtse mountains, and many more. Here we spend some time admiring the sunrise views and kissing the adjacent mountain peak, which is memorable. Later on, we retrace our steps back to Gorakshep, take our breakfast, and then descend down to Pheriche. Overnight in Pheriche.

Today we leave Pheriche for Namche Bazar. Following a descending trail that involves various ups and downs with ideal rhododendron and juniper trees along the way, we then cross a bridge over the Dudh Koshi River. We climb rapidly down a forested trail where we can discover mountain goats, pheasants, and other wild animals and birds. The same trail takes us to Sansa, from where we get a great view of the Ama Dablam, Thamserku, and Nuptse mountains. An unwinding zigzag trail through the forest leads us to the Namche Bazaar. Overnight in Namche Bazaar

This is the last day of your 14 Day trek from Everest Base Camp up into the mountains. After breakfast, we descend, following a trail all along the Dudh Koshi River. We then crossed several suspension bridges and passed through several monasteries and villages before arriving in Lukla. After reaching Lukla, we take a much-needed rest and indulge in a celebration with our porters for our achievement and success. Overnight in Lukla
