Everest Base Camp Trek
Everest Base Camp Trek, commonly referred to as the "standard route to see Mount Everest," is a fascinating journey that is one of the most popular trekking routes in Nepal and the ultimate destination for hikers who seek adventures in the Himalayas. At 8,848 meters above sea level, Mt. Everest base camp package, also known as "The Sagarmatha" natively, is the highest peak on Earth. Many of us would like to take in the breathtaking sunrise and sunset views of Nepal's tallest mountains. Around 35,000 people visit Everest Base Camp trekking each year, and some 1000 come to climb Mount Everest, the highest mountain in the world.
Along with the Himalayas' grandeur, this region has numerous other natural treasures that are listed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. This adventure is absolutely exceptional and unforgettable since it is rich in pine forests, rhododendron and endangered bird and animal species. You will experience Buddhist tradition and culture, warm, affable, and endearing people with their traditional way of life, and get a glimpse of snow-capped snowy peaks while on Everest Base Camp Treks. This trip brings you to both the actual base camp location, underneath the cascading Khumbu Icefall as well as the well-known Everest viewpoint of Kala Patthar (5,545m). And of course a helicopter tour is the best alternative way to get to Everest base camp, which takes around 3 hours. The Mount Everest base camp also rewards you with the astounding view of snow-capped peaks like Mount Everest, Pumori, Lhotse, Nuptse, and Khumbu glacier.

Everest Base Camp Trek Route
The path that leads to the Everest Base Camp features a variety of terrains, towering suspension bridges, pleasant riverbanks and picturesque mountain views.
The 35-minute flight from Kathmandu to Lukla is where the Everest Base Camp trekking package begins. Lukla is famed for its stunning aerial vistas. You will also visit Phakding; the valley of Dudh Koshi river, Namche Bazaar, Tengboche, Dingboche, Gorakshep, EBC and Kala Patthar throughout the journey.
One of the officials from the Skyline Treks will give you a briefing on the Everest base camp trek itinerary on your first day arrival at Kathmandu. You will catch an early flight to Lukla the next day and start your walk to Phakding through lovely villages after you arrive at Lukla Airport. Namche Bazar is the following destination. The journey from Phakding to Namche Bazaar is primarily uphill and might be difficult. You will spend a day in Namche Bazaar for acclimatization to Syangboche (Everest view).
The next day, after a delicious breakfast in Namche Bazaar, you will hike for five to six hours to get to Tengboche Monastery. You will cross meandering routes with picturesque views of Mount Everest, Ama Dablam, and Thamserku throughout the first phase of the trek. You will be arranged a night’s stay in a nearby teahouse at Tengboche.
The next morning, you will continue your trek to Dingboche after breakfast. With spectacular landscapes along the journey, the trail is primarily a downhill stroll. You will have a rest day at Dingboche after which the trek to Lobuche begins the next morning. We will pause along the way of your trip at scenic sites so you can soak in the appealing beauty of the mountains. Gorakshep will be another stop before continuing your trek to Everest Base Camp and back. The Everest Base Camp height is 5364m. You can also hike from Gorakshep to Kala Patthar early in the morning for the best panoramic sunrise view, the highest climbing attraction in the Everest region. We travel a considerably long way to reach Lukla after Gorakshep. The trek is concluded by a return flight back to Kathmandu.
The Everest Base Camp trek is considered a challenging and demanding trek, primarily due to the high altitude and rugged terrain. However, with proper preparation, physical fitness, and acclimatization, many people successfully complete the trek every year.
The trek to Everest Base Camp typically takes about 12 to 14 days, depending on the route and individual pacing. The trail involves long uphill and downhill sections, rocky paths, and steep ascents in certain areas. Trekkers need to be prepared for variable weather conditions, including low temperatures and occasional snowfall, particularly at higher elevations.
One of the most significant challenges of the Everest Base Camp trek is altitude sickness. As you ascend to higher altitudes, the oxygen levels decrease, and the risk of altitude-related illnesses such as Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS) increases. It is crucial to allow sufficient time for acclimatization, take regular rest days, and be aware of the symptoms of altitude sickness to ensure a safe trek.
The Everest Base Camp trek requires a moderate level of physical fitness. Regular exercise, including cardiovascular workouts, hiking, and building strength in the legs and core, can help prepare for the trek. It is recommended to consult with a healthcare professional before undertaking any strenuous physical activity or high-altitude trek.
Overall, while the Everest Base Camp trek is challenging, it is achievable for individuals with the right preparation, determination, and appropriate physical condition. It is essential to undertake thorough research, plan well, and consider joining an experienced with our trekking company a knowledgeable guide to ensure a safe and successful journey.
Arrival at Tribhuban International Airport (T.I.A) and pick up by our private vehicle and transfer to the Hotel.
You will be boarding an early flight from Kathmandu to Lukla on this particular day. Your guide will transport you to the domestic terminal. These flights are arranged during the morning in order to make sure that you can land because Lukla's weather can become quite windy and unreliable in the late afternoon. The flight, which lasts about 35 minutes, is incredibly exciting. You will get breathtaking views of the highlands and the snow-capped Himalayas on a fine day. When you arrive at the Tenzing-Hillary Airport, you will meet the porters and Sherpas who will accompany you on the trip. The trek starts with a pleasant walk through the alpine woods next to the Dudh Koshi River. Your first view of the Himalayas, including a distant vista of Mount Khumbila, will be the moment you reach Cheplung village. The calming melody of the Dudh Koshi River will complement your journey as you travel with mules and other trekkers. Phakding is the intended destination for dinner before bed.
Traveler’s note: Since it's important to put your safety first, we recommend all our guests traveling to Lukla to book an extra day of vacation time in case their flights are delayed by adverse weather.
You will head for Namche Bazaar shortly as you finish breakfast. The journey constantly goes along the Dudh Koshi Riverbank after leaving Phakding village. The majority of this portion of the trail is shaded by a blue pine forest, however it also passes through various yak farms and Sherpa settlements, including Benkar and Chumoa. You must also cross The Hillary Bridge, a lengthy suspension bridge, along the way to get to the Sagarmatha National Park in Monjo.
The trail becomes extremely steep and climbs uphill toward Jorsalle village as you enter the national park. But after a while, the challenging trail rewards you with a stunning view of Kusum Kanguru, Thamserku, Everest and Nuptse as you reach Namche Bazaar, frequently referred to as the "Gateway to the Himalayas". It is surroundedby teahouses, restaurants, ATMs and vibrant markets. You can get a close look at Thamserku and Kongde-Ri from the village.
Rest overnight at the local teahouse enjoying a delicious dinner.
You will have a rest day at Namche Bazaar for acclimatization to help your body adapt to the altitude and lower your risk of altitude sickness as the journey will take you beyond 4,000 meters over the days that follow. Even though it is a rest day, you can go for a quick climb to the slopes above Namche Bazaar and Syangboche. You will see the Everest View Hotel, one of the highest premium hotels in the world, here.
View the magnificent mountains Ama Dablam, Mt. Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, Thamserku, Khumbila, and Kwangde from a place close to the hotel. You will have the opportunity to visit the Sherpa Culture Museum and Everest Photo Gallery on your way back to Namche Bazaar. Wander through the local market. Experience the nightlife and adore the Sherpas' hospitality.
Rest and enjoy your meal at the guesthouse.
We depart from Namche and follow a route to Tengboche. The trail from Namche to Tengboche is regarded as the most picturesque path of the entire Everest Base Camp Trek. We initially make our way down to the Dudh Koshi Valley at Phungithanka before slowly ascending to Tengboche. A number of the highest mountains will witness you trek the wonderful trail, including Mt. Ama Dablam, Mt. Lhotse, Mt. Nuptse, and Mt. Everest. You will walk across the Imja Khola to Tengboche, the spiritual heart of the Khumbu Region.
You can explore Tengboche Monastery, a well-known Buddhist shrine. It's an ancient monastery that's situated at a high elevation and offers spectacular scenery of the Everest region. Be sure to check out the monastery's magnificent statues and artwork. You can meditate alongside the Buddhist monasteries. Additionally, from an altitude of 3,900 meters, one can observe Ama Dablam and take in the sunset.
You will have dinner and an overnight stay at a guest house in Tengboche.
Experience the gorgeous sunrise over mountain Ama Dablam which will be a beautiful memory to cherish forever. After breakfast, you'll start your trekking journey north from Tengboche settlement. The walk continues on a delightful path full of mountain vistas, rhododendron forests and spectacular landscapes to Pangboche village upon passing a suspension bridge across the Imja Khola. The road narrows significantly beyond this point. The trails leading to Dingboche are guarded by mani walls, prayer flags, prayer wheels, agricultural fields, and yak herder communities.
Dingboche is also called "Summer Valley." As you approach it, you will see yaks grazing in the huge pasture. You could experience the impact of thin air at a height of 4,410 meters when you arrive at Dingboche. Be calm and drink a lot of water. Always keep yourself hydrated. Here, our hiking guide will use an oximeter to evaluate your oxygen level and examine if you are physically fit to trek. If not, he will provide you with some medications to prevent you from having altitude sickness.
Have a delicious dinner and warm, comfortable night's sleep at a local guest house.
There is an additional rest and acclimatization day to enable your body to adjust to the altitude. After breakfast, you can take a quick hike to a nearby hill to stay energized and prepared for the remaining adventure. Nagarjuna Hill, which rises steeply from Dingboche to its top at 5,085 meters, gives stunning views of Ama Dablam, Lobuche, Lhotse, Nuptse, Cholatse and Kangtega. After a short break at the peak, you'll return to Dingboche to relax. You might decide to do another quick tour of the village if you're in good health and wish to engage in more activities. You will have dinner and rest at the guesthouse tonight.
After breakfast today, you will begin your trek to Lobuche, which is at an altitude of 4940 meters. You first follow a track that runs through a series of broad valleys to get to Dughla. You will carry on and eventually arrive in Lobuche after passing some yak farms. The trails are covered with snow and are barren. As you are currently moving above the treetops, you will find that there are almost no trees or rolling hills. Snow-covered hills are all that are seen. Here in Lobuche, there are no permanent Sherpa villages.
You will witness a memorial site for the Sherpa's who lost their lives while expediting Everest. The trek continues via the Moraine of Khumbu Glacier, from where you can glimpse peaks like Khumbutse, Mahalangur Himal, Lingtren, Mount Pumori, and Mount Nuptse. You'll be surrounded by the stunning views of the high mountains next to the tea houses.
Admire the view, have dinner and sleep warmly at night.
You'll start off on a rocky, rough trail in Lobuche after breakfast and head towards Gorakshep. You can still see vistas of Nuptse, Pumori, and other mountains despite the difficult trail. The arduous trail takes a few hours to travel before you arrive at Gorakshep. You will get some time to relax and leave your heavy gear before beginning your way back to Everest Base Camp. You will be trekking close to the Khumbu Glacier and passing by multiple small streams and glacial moraines along the route. With its gray rocks, ice structures, and tiny craters, the Khumbu Glacier resembles a lunar landscape.
You'll be standing in Mount Everest's foothills in around two hours. The wait is now over. With your team and trekking guide, you can celebrate your accomplishment once you arrive at Everest Base Camp. Live the moment and admire the Khumbu Icefall, Khumbu Glacier, Nuptse, Pumori, Khumbutse, and a little portion of Everest seen magnificently from the Everest Base Camp. Take photographs as you wander around the base camp.
You will return to the desolate landscape of Gorakshep for dinner and an overnight stay after celebrating and taking in the glorious view.
The day begins before dawn with a hike up to the iconic Kala Patthar. It's the second most anticipated day of your EBC trekking trip. So, get up early before sunrise and head to Kala Patthar located at 5,550 meters. It is the highest point of your hiking expedition. You will forget all your worries as the sun emerges from the highest mountain.
Catch the sun's golden rays as they fall on Mount Everest and other soaring peaks from Kala Patthar. Embrace yourself at the base of the world's most beautiful landscapes. Capture the moment on camera to share it with the world. Retrace your tracks, return to Gorakshep for breakfast and then head downhill to Pangboche. You will go along a rocky path as you cross through Thukla Pass and Lobuche. However, the trail is familiar and easy going. You will pass a small bridge over a glacial stream after descending the slope of Thukla Pass to reach Pangboche.
Indulge in the surrounding views and enjoy a Himalayan meal at Pangboche before retiring to your room to unwind.
After breakfast, you will depart for a relatively comfortable trail to leave the high Himalayas behind early this morning. The most of today will be spent hiking through thick blue pine and rhododendron forests. You can encounter some rare animals such as Himalayan griffons, wild goats, musk deer and pheasants. You will pass through a number of villages along the way, notably Tengboche and Phunki Tenga. The terrain changes to a steep uphill as you arrive at Phunki Tenga. You then trek back down towards the Dudh Koshi River after an hour-long ascent. You will reach Kyangjuma village after crossing a short suspension bridge. Three well-traveled routes in the Everest region meet here: Namche Bazaar, Gokyo Valley, and Khumjung Village. You will continue the trail from here to the Namche Bazaar.
Enjoy your final night together with Sherpa at a guesthouse in Namche Bazaar as you recall base camp memories.
You move back to Lukla while leaving the mesmerizing mountains behind, after breakfast. To get to Lukla, we descend along the Jorsale, Monjo, and Phakding. The magnificent steep terrain and dense forests will keep us captivated the entire journey. Embrace the final moments of your Everest trek and vistas of the impressive mountains. Before arriving at Lukla, where the trip comes to an end, you will pass several Buddhist monasteries, mani walls, and chortens.
Rejoice about your achievement to EBC this evening with your entire team. Thank the porters who assisted with carrying your belongings. The trekking group will have a moment of celebration.
Dinner and overnight stay in Lukla, where you can taste the finest local wines and foods from the Himalayas.
Your hike comes to an end now, and you will catch a flight back to Kathmandu early in the morning while the weather remains fine. As you are in the air heading to the city, make sure to take in one final view of the fascinating surroundings. You will land in Kathmandu after a short 35-minuteflight and will be taken directly to the hotel. The rest of your day can be spent relaxing or exploring Thamel to find presents for your loved ones back home.
In this area of the city, there are also many dining options, serving everything from local momos to traditional newari foods, steaks and pizza. You will find something to truly enjoy for dinner after your adventure in the mountains.
Have a good sleep at the hotel in Kathmandu.

I recently did Everest Base Camp trekking in Nepal through the most conscientious company “The Skyline treks and expedition” and their Team and had a breathtaking experience. My daughter and I were extremely contented with the genial and practiced concentration that was given to us.
I recently did some trip in Nepal through the most conscientious company “The Skyline treks and expedition” and their Team and had a breathtaking experience. My daughter and I were extremely contented with the genial and practiced concentration that was given to us. Greet and meet with a garland of flower at airport to hotel transfer was incredibly app laudable and the sightseeing activities around the city of Kathmandu were tremendously enjoyable. The trek to Everest Base Camp and Kalapatthar was the best part of our trip. Our professional guide and dutiful porter were remarkable. From the first meet at Nepal airport to end-to-end of the Everest base camp trek, we were taken best care like family. We would like to thank Madhav; the managing director of the company for such stellar arrangement for the Everest base camp and Kalapatthar trek. We would greatly suggest Skyline treks and the Team to anyone from around the globe who seeks for an incomparable nature-loving trip in Nepal.

I stumbled upon Skyline Treks on one of the Hiking forums. Boy am I glad I did. Everything was effortless with these guys, the planning and execution. Mr. Madhav who owns the agency is always prompt to reply to emails, messages and calls and goes out of his way to make his guests feel welcome, loved and well taken care off. I can't compliment enough my guide Lakpa, a general soul who is eager with his hospitality, accommodating and always ready to take on challenges on the trail if you are. It was like having a friend, guide and assistant all wrapped into one.
You cannot go wrong with these guys. Professional, value for money service with a true inclination to make customers happy. I highly recommend them. If it's hiking / trekking in Nepal that you are looking at don't look any further.

Trek to Everest base camp

A couple of months ago my friend and i decided to go on the beautiful trek to Everest BC, and through friends we were set up with Skyline Treks. And i am so glad we were, our every wish was fulfilled! Even when we kind of last minute wanted to change the dates a little bit, it was no problem at all! Madhav is a great manager, a great problem solver.

On our trek we had the amazing Sanjay for our guide, and we were so lucky to have him. He has an answer to every question! And as i can count, he knows at least Four languages :D On our last day before reaching basecamp, i was literally doubting that we would make it, but thanks to him, we did it. As he says; "Slow and steady"

Everest Base Camp: An experience of a lifetime
8th November, 2022
EBC was literally my first big trekking, and before going there I always had doubts and concerns about whether or not I'll be able to make it to the base of the camp. But, Mr. Madhav from the Skyline was very encouraging, and gave me good advice beforehand.
He was also able to work out with me and gave me the best value that suited my itinerary. He provided me an excellent guide, Gokarna! He was very knowledgeable and friendly.
He became more than a guide and truly cared as a friend. I had a great time and fun doing this journey with him. I enjoyed the beauty and magnificence of the Himalayas and its people. This was an experience of a lifetime and you'll definitely love this journey! I highly recommend doing this with them.

I don't think words will be enough to describe how amazing this trek was.
Starting from Madhav answering every one of my emails right away, having everythingarranged for me by the time I arrived at the airport.
I hope you're lucky as me and get to go with Dheeraz and Gokarna as guide and porter.
They made me feel not only taken care of all the time but also as a friend.
Comparing to other people I met on the way, the money/value for the tour was the best so I would recommend it 100%. The lodges I stayed at and the whole service I received was amazing, while for others the situation was different for the places they had to stay at were not as ideal and the guides can sometimes be not as friendly as you would expect.
I had the opportunity to see the mountains, the places, understand a little bit of the local life and meet local people - even tried the best local momo at Namche. The whole trip was a lot more than I ever thought it could be.
I'll be forever thankful to Skyline for making my trip an amazing experience, specially since I was travelling alone and was a little bit skeptic about it all.
By the way, the farewell dinner is amazing!!!!!

Great company, flexible and friendly
8th November, 2022
I did a trek with Skyline in November. I was supposed to do the Everest View Trek but ended up with a reduced stay in Nepal as I extended my stay in a previous destination. Skyline were very helpful and very flexible and made it work so I could get as close to Everest as possible with only 8 days available.
My guide, Sanjay, was friendly and helpful and the porter who carried my bag was great too.
Madhav, the owner was always on hand if I needed anything, before, during and after the trek! I was a solo traveler and felt safe and looked after. Thank you to you all so much for making my time in Nepal great!

Treating clients as guests and not customers
8th November, 2022
I chose to go with Skyline for my Everest Base Camp trek after a strong recommendation from a friend. The entire team right from owner Mr. Madhav to our guides were very cordial and helpful. Right from paperwork,to airport pick-up to all the intricacies during the trip were taken care of.I would especially like to mention and recommend my guide Sanjay Chapagain who visited me one day before the trip and helped me shop necessary stuff for the trek.
He had a good knowledge of the entire route and was always informative all the way telling about all the peaks and points on the way.
On my way back I had serious health issue and he was very helpful in getting me out of there with help from Mr. Madhav, who ran all the errands in Kathmandu.

Everest Base Camp May/June 2016
8th November, 2022
In researching our trip to Everest Base Camp we chose to go with Skyline Treks out of Kathmandu. The owner Madhav Pandey was always prompt in answering our questions around the logistics of the trip as well as the day to day details such as what gear is needed and what to expect. There were many trekking companies to chose from and felt the most confident based on the reviews and his promptness.
We booked with Skyline and the trip turned out to be fantastic. It was a college graduation trip for my daughter and I. Madhav met us at the airport with a car/driver and took us to our hotel where we met the guide (Sherpa). Our sherpa was Nima and were very pleased with his knowledge of the mountain, the tea houses and the route. Myself being an old guy with two other mid-20's trekkers, he made me feel like I wasn't the slow guy. We found out that our trek with Nima Sherpa was his 85th trip to EBC. Now that is experience. Other trekkers on the mountain chose to go it alone without the assistance of a Sherpa and they often had to ask directions or took a wrong route that ended up being longer or harder. Book with an experience guide so that you can enjoy your trip.
Our porter "BB" was a delight to have on the journey. He always was smiling and engaging during the evening in the tea houses. I would highly recommend booking with Skyline and if you do, ask for Nima as the Sherpa and BB as the guide. You will be glad you did.

My second adventure with Skyline Treks
8th November, 2022
I contacted again Madhav Pandey directly on Facebook to book my second trek in Nepal after the 1st one I did in the Annapurna in 2014.
This one was a trek to Everest Base Camp for 2 weeks.
Everything was great and well organised. Overall I had another amazing experience in Nepal.
I recommend the guide Nigma Sherpa. This English-speaking sherpa will do everything he can to make your ascension to base camp the best way possible. He was definitely my highlight during my 15 days in Nepal. He will give you advice to be safe, healthy and he will keep you in good spirit. I couldn't have been more happy to have him as my sherpa.
Maybe their website should be refreshed with a new design but don't worry you are in good and serious hands. You are also dealing only with Nepalese which is a good thing considering their global economy.

Succeeded Everest base camp and Kalapathar trek batch in July 2010
8th November, 2022
The trek experience up to the bottom of world’s highest mountain was as expected admirable and the hike to Kalapathar at 5,545 meters in the frosty morning was not an easy task but me with my some friends were highly motivated by our trek guide Dheeraz C and if he was not with us even we can’t imagine this high altitude trek.
Enjoyed every bit of this trek, what a gifted team of Skyline treks, I always remember them in my prayers. I highly praise their compassion. Cheers!!!

EBC/Kala Pathar trek with Skyline Treks and Expedition
8th November, 2022
We did the Everest Base Camp (EBC) / Kala Pathar trek with Skyline Treks and Expedition this year from the 06th-15th April 2018. This has by far been the most amazing trek i have ever undertaken. The trek was made all the more comfortable and enjoyable owing to the exceptional care and guidance offered by the Skyline team. The team ensured that we were lodged up in the best Tea Houses throughout the way and were made as comfortable as possible throughout the trek. I can very confidently say that our guide Dheeraz is one of the best in the business. A very hard working and amiable gentleman, Dheeraz always wore a smile across his face at all times and it was really very assuring to trek under his guidance.
Skyline might be charging a slight premium for their services but given their service levels the same stand more than justified. Also, their group sizes are not huge thereby leading to a more personal touch and individual attention to the trekkers.

It was an awe-inspiring trek in Nepal Himalayas! I experienced authentic raw from Everest base camp trek and don’t have enough words to praise about the scenic beauty of Everest region and its surroundings. Dheeraz C, our trek guide, who was very reliable, friendly and responsible in every aspect. I absolutely loved trekking with Skyline Treks and Expedition, the meals they served was the best meal we ate during our EBC trek and when it comes about fruits they gave after the dinner as dessert even at such high elevation and weather was just utterly astounding. We definitely recommend Skyline Treks and team to anyone trekking to Everest base camp.

We have made 14 days Everest base camp trek with Skyline Treks, and the hiking club is too excellent for anything that they do.
Affable staffs, well-informed and concerned trek guide, appetizing food and on the whole perfectly arranged and managed trek even in such altitude.
For my part, this Himalayan trek in Nepal simply worth every single penny that I paid. Skyline treks and team you guys are one of the best trek selling organization in Nepal.
I will surely come back to do one more adventurous trek in Nepal. Can’t just wait to recommend such humbling company!

The hikes through the nature worth much more than the money that I paid for my Everest base camp with Kalapathar trek.
Strolling and startling over adventure for 14 days with a most trustworthy organization as Skyline Treks and their entire team made my EBC trip absolutely magnificent. You are just amazing…..
My trek guide (Ang Ngima Sherpa) knowledgeable, decent and helpful. If get chance to trek Nepal Himalayas in the future, not by any means I will not miss Skyline treks and team.
If someone have thirst to trek or wish to do adventure activities then feel free to join with the Nepal trekking company the Skyline treks.

“We had a wonderful time in Nepal, for me and 4 of my friends. We did fun and adventure mixed trek in the Everest Base Camp trekking trip which was all setup by Skyline treks and expedition.
Despite other days, the day 9 journey supposed to make the top of Kalapathar at 5,545 meters early in the morning was totally string of difficulties so don’t think it is easy trek. But when there is Skyline treks like trekking club and Sanjay like trek guide then one can surely triumph over its final destination.
“A kind of motivation by my trek guide went along and that made me to conquer against the wilderness. Strong recommendation to Skyline treks and team!

The Everest Base Camp Trek was one of the most challenging things I've ever done, but it was also one of the most rewarding. The scenery was breathtaking, and the feeling of accomplishment when we reached the base camp of Mount Everest was amazing. It's an experience that I'll never forget. - Maria,
