After having breakfast at the hotel in Kathmandu, we will take you on a sightseeing tour in Kathmandu. Our tour guide will pick you up from your hotel in a private vehicle to show you around the city. Kathmandu is the cultural hub of Nepal and has been a famous destination for tourists ever since Nepal opened its borders to visitors. The city displays an interesting combination of Hinduism, Tibetan Buddhism, and Western influence in the Valley. There will be a full-day guided tour to the famous tourist destinations of Kathmandu city such as the biggest Hindu shrine of Pashupatinath, the largest Buddhist stupa in Boudhanath, Swoyambhunath Stupa and Kathmandu Durbar Square. After a day full of sightseeing, you will be returned to your hotel in the evening. You will have time to shop your trekking gear if you need any.

We start our journey quite early in the morning and drive via the Araniko highway to Bhandar. While passing the old Newar towns of Banepa and Dhulikhel, you will get excellent panoramic views of the Himalayas, including Ganesh Himal, Langtang Lirung, and Dorjee Lakpa. The scenery changes as we travel through verdant hills and valleys, raging rivers, cascading waterfalls, and distant views of snow-capped mountains. The people living along the way also exhibit a diversity of cultures and traditions. The road descends to Panchkhal, then climbs over a ridge behind Dolalghat and follows the Sunkoshi North to Lamasangu. After passing several villages you will reach Jiri and then continue to Bhandar, where you’ll spend the night at a lodge.

Today is the first day of your trekking journey to Everest Base Camp. After having breakfast at the lodge, we start our day hike. Our trail first drops down to the Linkhu Khola, crosses the river at 1490m, and then follows it to Kenja at 1570m and another steep ascent to Chimbu. Continuing further through terraced farming and several farmhouses, we finally reach Sete. Situated on a ridge in the middle of the rhododendron forest is a little Sherpa village called Sete, where we spend the night at a mountain lodge.

It’s going to be a challenging hiking day today. After a warm breakfast at the lodge, we start our day. We begin hiking on the trail that passes gradually up through Lamjura Pass (3530m), which is the highest point between Jiri and Namche Bazaar. It then descends through fir and rhododendron forests and emerges after one and a half hours at Taktor. We continue on the north side of the valley before dropping down to the Sherpa village of Junbesi. We spend the afternoon here exploring the village and the way of life of its inhabitants.

As usual, we start our trek after a warm breakfast at our lodge. Below Junbesi, the trail crosses the Junbesi Khola on a wooden bridge. Just beyond the bridge is a trail junction. The route to Khumbu follows the left-hand trail that leads uphill then turns north, descending through Sailung. From the Dudh Koshi River, the trail ascends to Ringmo and the Tak-Shindo Pass. There are a few shepherds’ huts beside the trail but the route is mostly hidden in dense forest. The trail crosses several picturesque streams on wooden bridges just before reaching Nunthala (Manidingma). Nathula is where we spend today’s night.

After having breakfast at the lodge, we descend from Nunthala to the Dudh Koshi River at 1480m and cross it to follow the other bank. Most of the trail is well-defined, although, it sometimes meanders through terraced fields and yards of houses. It then descends steeply through forests to a Chautara (resting place) overlooking the river. We follow the river for a while, then climb through terraced fields to reach the Rai village of Jubing (1667m). We climb through the village around a ridge and aim for the prominent notch in front of us. From this notch, the trail continues to the village of Khari Khola (2004m) and goes onwards up the steep hill to Bupsa Danda, which is our today’s destination.

On the eighth day of the trip, you will wake up in this beautiful hilltop village of Buspa Danda. Like previous days, we start our trek after a delicious breakfast. The trail ascends from Bupsa on to Bhumsing (2300 m), then continues to climb through a tributary valley filled with prickly leaned oak and rhododendron forest, where languor monkeys may occasionally be seen. The trail now descends and crosses the next tributary after one hour, and continues on the north side of the valley to reach Puiyan. We spend the night at a tea house in Puiyan.

After breakfast, we start our trek ascending for about an hour after Puiyan to the ridge at 2800m, followed by another ridge. The trail descends to Surkhe (Buwa) at 2293m, situated on a tributary of the Dudh Koshi. The trail remains above the village of Surkhe encircling it. The trail now leaves this tributary valley and heads directly north towards Chaurikharka, another dispersed village. Before ascending to Chaurikharka (2713 m), the main trail crosses a spectacular deep gorge with a high waterfall. After some time, you’ll reach Phakding, where you meet the standard EBC trail coming from Lukla. We spend the night at a lodge in Phakding.

Following a brief breakfast at the lodge, we continue trekking following the Dudh Koshi River, which we cross many times on the way. At Monjo, we enter the Sagarmatha National Park, which is home to numerous flora and fauna. We stop here for lunch and rest our weary muscles for a while before continuing our trek. After lunch, we pass a plateau where the Saturday bazaar is held. Namche Bazaar appears ahead as we travel along a path surrounded by pines. After a few hours of walking, we reach the bustling town of Namche, where we will spend the next couple of nights.

We have included an extra day at Namche Bazaar for acclimatization in order to help our body get used to the lower oxygen levels at high elevations. Nevertheless, you shouldn’t spend the entire rest day in bed. Getting your body moving is the best way to acclimatize. Your trekking guide will make plans for quick trips to Everest View Point and the Sherpa Museum. In addition, you can stroll around the community market and talk to the Sherpas, who will be happy to exchange a few words with you.

If you would like to witness the Himalayas in all their grandeur, you can trek to the Everest View Hotel. This is one of the tallest hotels in the world. The further you go uphill, the more brilliant the sights get. Enjoy the breathtaking views of the majestic mountains, which include Lhotse, Ama Dablam, and Mount Everest, from a location near the hotel.

After a rest day at Namche, we continue our trek towards Tengboche enjoying superb views of Mt. Everest, Nuptse, Lhotse, Ama Dablam, and close-up views of Thamserku. Our hike follows the gradual trail with a few ups and downs overlooking magnificent views of the great Himalayas. Along the way, we may spot wild animals like pheasant, musk deer, or a herd of Himalayan Thar. The trail gradually descends to Kayangjuma and eventually reaches Sanasa which is the major trail junction to Gokyo Valley and Everest Base Camp.

The track then follows through the pine forests. After we cross the prayer flags festooned bridge over Dudh Koshi River, we reach Phunki Thenga, a small settlement with a couple of teahouses and a small army post amidst the alpine woods. We have our lunch at Phunki Thenga we then take a tough climb steeply up through the pine forests before we reach Tengboche. Tengboche is a great place for close-up views of Ama-Dablam, Nuptse, and Everest and it has the biggest Buddhist Monastery in the Khumbu region.

We start our trek after having breakfast at the lodge by descending through the Rhododendron forest to the Imja Khola. We cross an exciting suspension bridge on the Imja Khola and walk forward passing by a long Mani stone wall to enter the village of Pangboche. Pangboche is located at 3985 meters in a stunning valley with breathtaking views of the mountains. We continue on our path toward the high-altitude Sherpa village of Dingboche, flanked like trail guardians by yak herds, prayer flags, chortens, and Mani walls.

As you approach Dingboche, at 4410 meters, you could begin to experience the effects of the thin air. You have to be composed and hydrated at all times. Using an oximeter, your guide will assess the level of oxygen saturation in your body. If you exhibit any signs of altitude sickness, you should slow down and stop your ascent.

Today is a much looked forward day to acclimatize, after two days of continuous ascending. It also gives us a breather to rest our lungs. There are some breathtaking views of the North face of Ama Dablam and the Lhotse-Nuptse ridge as we explore this beautiful valley.

We hike to the neighboring hill Nagarjuna after breakfast so we can see the surrounding mountains. Perched at 5,100 meters, Nagarjun Hill offers stunning vistas of the Everest region. Some breathtaking panoramas exhibit the summits of Lobuche, Thamserku, and Nagarjuna, among other notable peaks in the area. We get back to Dingboche after a fantastic day hike, where we explore the town and its environs. We head back to our accommodation in the evening and get ready for the climb the next day.

We start our trek in the morning after having breakfast at the lodge. The onward Himalayan journey leads us north for up to 1 hour until we arrive at a mani-prayer Stupa. The trail then gets somewhat gentle as we look down to Pheriche village below. Today’s walk offers views of Mt. Tawache, Ama Dablam, Pokalde (5741m), Kongma Tse (5820m) and the great wall of Nuptse. After two hours of walking, the trail from Pheriche joins near Dughla (4595m) before a small wooden bridge over the river of Khumbu glacier. We then continue for an hour up a steep hill to the top, where we get to see beautiful views of Mt. Pumori and other peaks west of Everest. After a short break here, we continue trekking up to Lobuche, which is where we stay the night.

After early breakfast at the lodge, we start our trek by following the rocky moraine path, viewing icy glacial ponds and icebergs down below the Khumbu glacier. After the last rocky moraine dunes, a short downhill walk brings us to Gorakshep, where we will stop for lunch and leave all our stuff at the lodge, as this is the last place where lodges are available.

We then continue on our Himalayan journey to the Everest Base Camp. Congratulations! You have hiked up all the way to set foot on the foothills of Mt. Everest. Your dream has finally come true! After spending some time in the Base Camp, we return to Gorakshep for the night. It was a wonderful day after all. But this is not the end. We have something exciting for the next morning.

his is the day to witness the full face of Mount Everest gleaming in the early morning light. If you’re too exhausted, you can skip it. Arriving at the Everest Base Camp (5364 m) is more than enough. However, we highly advise that you gather your courage and embark on this early morning walk to Kala Patthar, which is also the highest point of the trek. It could end up being the most wonderful thing you’ve ever done.

Early in the morning, we trek to Kala Patthar before the sun comes up. When the sun’s golden rays hit the shimmering snow of Mount Everest and other high peaks in the vicinity, they seem stunningly beautiful. After admiring the magnificent mountain view for a bit, we get ready to descend. After eating breakfast at the teahouse in Gorekshep, we’ll climb down to Pheriche, a charming little hamlet where we’ll spend today’s night.

Our trekking journey has almost come to an end. After having breakfast at the lodge in Pheriche, we begin our day hike. Now we are trekking back to Namche Bazaar along the same route we took to ascend. It is an easier descent passing through the rhododendron forests. We eat lunch at Tengboche which is a small village with the famous Tengboche Monastery offering you a splendid view of Ama Dablam, green hills, and river views. Then we trek back to Namche, our destination for the day. At Namche, you can have your celebratory dinner with a few drinks.

Today is the last hiking day of the entire journey. The trekking is pleasant as we head down from Namche to Lukla, except for a few short uphill climbs. We go down to the Bhote-Koshi River crossing it a few times over suspension bridges. The last uphill climb of 45 minutes will bring us to Lukla. Enjoy this evening as you celebrate the accomplishments of your Jiri to EBC expedition with your entire crew and staff. Savor every moment of your last night in the Everest region by singing and dancing.

our adventure comes to an end with an exciting flight from Lukla to Kathmandu. After breakfast, you board a short 30-minute flight from Lukla Airport. Say goodbye to the hills and mountains and savor the vistas from the air. Take some time to relax once you’ve reached Kathmandu. Explore the bustling alleys of Thamel if you’re feeling particularly energized. You can also buy mementos for your family and friends back home.

Today, you will be transferred to the Kathmandu International Airport for your final departure to your loving home or to your next destination. Outfitter Nepal takes pleasure in serving you. You counted on us & we didn’t let you down because we know how hard you’ve worked to enjoy this holiday.
